Abstract
Detecting and classifying damage to a vehicle. One example system includes a microphone positioned to detect sound waves inside the vehicle, one or more sensors positioned on the vehicle and configured to sense a characteristic of a windshield of the vehicle, and an electronic processor communicatively coupled to the one or more sensors and the microphone. The electronic processor is configured to receive sensor information from the one or more sensors and to receive an electrical signal from the microphone. The electronic processor is configured to determine, based on the sensor information, whether a crack event has occurred. The electronic processor is configured to, in response to determining that a crack event has occurred, determine a cause of the crack event based on the electrical signal received from the microphone. The electronic processor is configured to execute a mitigation action based on the cause of the crack event.
