  • Patent number: 11763268
    Abstract: A method carried out in a system having a diagnosis plug-in device, a host server, a plurality of third-party servers and a user display device. The method includes the steps of: coupling the diagnosis plug-in device to the diagnosis port of a vehicle of interest; collecting at the diagnosis plug-in device, a basic data set, including vehicle speed, itinerary and geolocations; transferring the basic data set to the host server; at the host server, enriching a driver's profile relating and updating the vehicle's data history; forwarding the basic data set from the host server to the third-party servers; at the third-party servers, enriching the driver's profile and/or updating the vehicle's data history; at each third-party server, deciding based on a set of message issuance criteria to build a message for the user and conditions of delivery of this message concerning vehicle maintenance and/or advertisement messages.

  • Patent number: 11381422
    Abstract: A method carried out in a system, the system comprising at least a diagnosis plug-in device (1) connected to the diagnosis plug (8) of a vehicle, a host server (2), one or more on-board ECUs (3), the method comprising the following steps: /a/ detect a Bus Active condition, either via an electrical pin on the diagnosis plug or via an analysis of activity level on at least one Diagnosis bus accessible at the diagnosis plug, /b/ cause the diagnosis plug-in device to listen only on the at least one Diagnosis bus after the Bus Active condition is detected, /c/ determine a write enable condition, according to evolution of bus load level on the at least one diagnosis bus and/or after a certain time elapsed since Bus Active condition was true, /e/ whenever the write enable condition becomes true, carry out the request/answer services to write requests on the diagnosis bus and retrieve, in the corresponding answers, various data from the board ECUs (3), to be decoded and forwarded to a client fleet management system,
