Abstract
A vehicle system includes a vehicle, a vehicle control unit (VCU), a plurality of data modules and a data conversion interface. The vehicle includes a chassis that supports the other components of the vehicle, including the VCU. The data modules each provide an output signal with a data type specific to each data module. The data conversion interface couples with the VCU and each data module. The data conversion interface receives the output signal from each data module, converts each output signal into a common data format, and transmits the converted output signals to the VCU.
