Patent number: 11030569Abstract: A cloud-based package-exchange-service for package delivery to, and pick-up from, a target vehicle includes a GPS-based proximity module. The GPS-based proximity module receives current GPS coordinates of a package delivery vehicle and of the target vehicle. The GPS-based proximity module stores both GPS coordinates. The GPS-based proximity module monitors a distance between the package delivery vehicle and the target vehicle of the customer. The cloud-based system also has a delivery module in the first server associated with a second database. The delivery module includes one or more lists of local delivery services that include registered individuals to be assigned for package exchange operations. The lists of local delivery services also include package delivery restrictions and conditions including package size, hours of operation, distance to operate, and delivery prices.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2016Date of Patent: June 8, 2021Assignee: Continental Intelligent Transportation Systems, Inc.Inventors: Seval Oz, Tammer Zein-El-Abedein, Yao Zhao

Publication number: 20180268621Abstract: An automated system for driver scoring and reporting maintains a performance history associated with particular drivers in a stored database of multiple drivers. An automated system tracks actual operation of the vehicle and maintenance performed on the vehicle to determine an estimated percentage of life remaining for the vehicle. The backend database stores the records of multiple vehicles. Services, such as i) usage-based vehicle leasing and ii) a certified life-expectancy of a vehicle, can use raw vehicle data and enriched vehicle data captured via a dongle module in the vehicle to determine the expected life remaining of that vehicle.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2016Publication date: September 20, 2018Applicant: Continental Intelligent Transporation Systems, LLCInventors: Seval OZ, Tammer ZEIN-EL-ABEDEIN, Yao ZHAI

Patent number: 9821768Abstract: A geo-proximity Vehicle Alert and Access System (VAAS) is discussed that has a cloud based server having a GPS-based proximity system to control and track a package exchange process, to speed up a package delivery and pick-up process, and to ensure security for the package exchange process. The cloud based server is configured to receive both current GPS coordinates of a package carrier's vehicle and current GPS coordinates of a target vehicle for at least one of package delivery to the target vehicle and package pick up from the target vehicle. The cloud based server is configured to send to the target vehicle the commands to wake-up an on-board telematics module, to give an alert, to unlock the target vehicle, and to lock the target vehicle after receiving a confirmation of the package exchange process.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2015Date of Patent: November 21, 2017Assignee: Continental Intelligent Transportation Systems LLCInventors: Seval Oz, Alexander Marc Klotz, Sudeep Kaushik, Yao Zhai, Francisco Fernandez Nares, Adrian Ramos Aguayo, Tammer Zein El-Abedein

Patent number: 9635006Abstract: A cloud based system for a package exchange with a vehicle service is discussed. The system can have servers having processors, ports, and databases and a security module running on the processors to receive a virtual key and one of a request for package exchange with a vehicle service, data, or both, from a package delivery vehicle. The virtual key has a first shelf life and is used for authentication of communications from the delivery vehicle. The security module can receive a security token having a second shelf life from a user. The security token is used for verification of the user and target vehicle. After the first authentication and in an overlap window of the two shelf lives, the security module can send the one or more commands to an on-board actuation module of the target vehicle to cause an electro-mechanical operation in the target vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2015Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: Continental Intelligent Transportation Systems, LLCInventors: Seval Oz, Sudeep Kaushik, Yao Zhai, Francisco Fernandez Nares, Adrian Ramos Aguayo, Tammer Zein El-Abedein

Publication number: 20160098670Abstract: A cloud based package transfer system is discussed that has a cloud based package-exchange-service hosted on a cloud based provider site. The cloud based package-exchange-service supplies servers and databases of retail websites with information regarding services for package exchange available to customers and their associated vehicles. The information enables a retail website to present a checkbox, the presented checkbox enables a customer at a checkout point of the purchase from the retail website to select an alternative package delivery option of delivering the purchased products to a target vehicle of the customer. The package-exchange-service receives purchase information from the retail websites and use purchase information to create database records for completed delivery operations.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2015Publication date: April 7, 2016Inventors: Seval Oz, Tammer Zein El-Abedein, Yao Shi, Ritesh Ahuja, Anabel Gallardo Bojorquez, Dan Treuz
