Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to transportation systems. More particularly, embodiments relate to methods and systems for detecting airbag deployment. The method includes obtaining one or more measurements from one or more sensors of a mobile device in a vehicle during a drive, determining a change in pressure based on processing the one or more measurements, and detecting a deployment of one or more vehicle airbags based on the change in pressure.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention utilize mobile devices to provide information on a user's behaviors during transportation. For example, a mobile device carried by a user can be used to detect and analyze driving behavior. Important driving behaviors that can be identified by some embodiments are device usage behavior and device interaction behavior, which is indicative of distraction or inattentiveness to one or more driving tasks.

Abstract: A system for reporting accident data includes: a mobile device having a plurality of sensors; a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to perform operations including: operating the plurality of sensors to collect driving data; receiving the driving data collected over a plurality of time intervals from at least one of the plurality of sensors in the mobile device of a user during a trip in a vehicle, assigning the driving data to the trip; receiving input indicating the trip is associated with an accident, wherein the input includes additional data associated with the accident; transmitting the driving data assigned to the trip associated with the accident; and transmitting the additional data associated with the accident.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention meet this need and others by providing systems and methods for detecting and assessing distracted drivers. Embodiments collect vehicle and driving data using a mobile device of a user. In a particular embodiment, data collected using the mobile device is analyzed to determine when the user is engaging in distracted driving behavior.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention utilize mobile devices to provide information on a user's behaviors during transportation. For example, a mobile device carried by a user can be used to detect and analyze driving behaviors during trips in vehicles. The mobile device can further be used to assign and display scores relating to the driving behaviors, scores for individual trips, and an overall driving score for the particular user.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to transportation systems. More particularly, embodiments relate to methods and systems of vehicle data collection by a user having a mobile device. In a particular embodiment, vehicle data (also termed herein “driving data” or “data”) is collected, analyzed and transformed, and combinations of collected data and transformed data are used in different ways, including, but not limited to, predicting, detecting, and reconstructing vehicle accidents.
