Abstract: Operating state information is received at an on-board telematics control unit (TCU) from an on-board diagnostic (OBD) system of a vehicle. The TCU transmits an indication of vehicle state over at least a wireless data link component of a communications network for delivery to a mobile computing device. The mobile computing device receives the indication of vehicle state and utilizes the indication of vehicle state at a mobile application program. In one example, the mobile application program presents vehicle state information via a graphical display of the mobile computing device. In another example, the mobile application program augments a functionality of the mobile computing device responsive to the indication of vehicle state.

Abstract: Personal electronic devices may be wirelessly detected within wireless range of a vehicle. One or more of the passengers may be identified based on an association of each passenger with a respective personal electronic device that was wirelessly detected. Sensor information is received from one or more sensors located on-board the vehicle, and a crash event involving the vehicle is detected based on the sensor information. For each passenger identified on-board the vehicle, physiological measurement information is obtained for that passenger measured by one or more sensors of the personal electronic device of that passenger during the crash event and/or during a post-crash period of time following the crash event. Responsive to detecting the crash event, a set of one or more crash event reporting messages, including the physiological measurement information, are transmitted over a communications network directed to a target recipient.

Abstract: A computing system located on-board a vehicle issues an event notification responsive to detection of an event condition. The on-board computing system detects the presence of wireless-enabled devices located within the vehicle or within proximity to the vehicle over a wireless communications link. The on-board computing system seeks to determine the identity of one or more persons that enter, attempt to enter, or operate the vehicle based on identifiers obtained from one or more wireless-enabled devices carried by those persons. The on-board computing system distinguishes multiple users from each other by designating one user as the vehicle operator, and one or more other users as passengers of the vehicle. The on-board computing system may include a removable on-board interface device that interfaces with an on-board vehicle control system.
