Abstract
Various embodiments of a method and apparatus for diagnosing the status of a vehicle using cognitive SMART sensors are disclosed. The SMART sensors have at least some processing power directly associated with the sensor. The SMART sensor that include an artificial intelligence (AI) core are is tightly coupled to the sensor within the SMART sensor. The sensor may be an audio sensor, such as a high quality microphone, that can record sounds that emanate from of the vehicle. Such sounds may be associated with one or more of the components of the vehicle. The AI core analyzes the sounds that emanate from the vehicle to determine the operational status of the vehicle. A communication module allows the result to be communicated to remotely located interested entities.
