Abstract
An apparatus configured to be removably attached to a vehicle includes a data collection device that is removably attachable to the vehicle. The data collection device includes an enclosure including a motion measurement sensor housed therein, and a mounting mechanism. The enclosure including the motion measurement sensor housed therein is configured to measure parameters that are used for calculating vibrational anomalies of the vehicle. The mounting mechanism is removably attached to the enclosure including the motion measurement sensor housed therein. The mounting mechanism has a proximal end and a distal end. The proximal end of the mounting mechanism has a fixative for removably attaching the mounting mechanism to the enclosure including the motion measurement sensor housed therein. The fixative is immobile with respect to the enclosure immediately upon attachment to the enclosure including the motion measurement sensor housed therein. The fixative thereby does not require further movement with respect to the enclosure including the motion measurement sensor housed therein immediately upon attachment to the enclosure including the motion measurement sensor housed therein. The distal end of the mounting mechanism is a vehicle mounting interface configured to allow the data collection device to be removably attached to the vehicle.
