Abstract

An in-vehicle sensing module for monitoring a vehicle is disclosed, which is advantageous for use in the context of a shared vehicle service, such as a car rental service, an autonomous taxi service, or a ride sharing service. The in-vehicle sensing module at least includes a controller, a cellular transceiver, and one or more integrated sensors configured to monitor a status of the vehicle. The in-vehicle sensing module utilizes appropriate algorithms, models, or thresholds to interpret sensor data and enrich the data with metadata and event detection. The in-vehicle sensing module uploads relevant sensor data, event data, or other metadata to a cloud storage backend, which is made accessible by authorized third-parties.
