Abstract
A device positionable in a passenger compartment of a vehicle can include a processor, an accelerometer, and a wireless transmitter. The processor can receive, while in a hibernation mode, an interrupt signal from the accelerometer based on the accelerometer detecting an acceleration of the vehicle that exceeds a predefined acceleration threshold. In response to receiving the interrupt signal from the accelerometer, the processor can switch from the hibernation mode to a sleep mode. While in the sleep mode, the processor can detect a trip start event based on one or more accelerometer values from the accelerometer. In response to detecting the trip start event, the processor can then switch from the sleep mode to an active mode. While in the active mode, the processor can receive additional accelerometer values from the accelerometer and store them for subsequent transmission to a remote server system using the wireless transmitter.
