Abstract: A telematics control system includes: an external server configured to serialize a script with an external protocol buffer and transmit the serialized script to a telematics control units (TCU); a vehicle having sensors and the TCU, the TCU configured to: deserialize the script with a TCU protocol buffer, execute the script via an interpreter preloaded on the TCU, store data from the sensors based on the script.

Abstract: Embodiments include a vehicle comprising a plurality of wheels, each wheel including a pressure sensor and a wireless transceiver; a central transceiver configured to obtain tire pressure and signal strength information from each of the wireless transceivers; and a processor communicatively coupled to the central transceiver and configured to detect removal of one of the wheels based on the signal strength information obtained from the wireless transceiver included in the removed wheel. Other embodiments include a method comprising obtaining tire pressure and signal strength information from each of a plurality of wireless transceivers respectively coupled to a plurality of wheels included in a vehicle; and detecting, using one or more processors, removal of one of the wheels from the vehicle based on the signal strength information obtained from the wireless transceiver included in the removed wheel.

Abstract: A vehicle information server maps a unique identifier of a stolen vehicle to a network identifier of the vehicle. Responsive to receiving the network identifier of the stolen vehicle and identifying access of the network identifier to a component of the network, a service provider server of a service provider network indicates a physical location of the component and a time of access of the component to a vehicle theft system.

Abstract: An embodiment of the invention is directed to a method, wherein it is received, at an origin device, input from a first telephonic device via an origin telephonic landline. An initiation request is then output based on the input to a destination device, wherein the destination device is configured to output a call request to a second telephonic device via a destination telephonic landline. Another embodiment of the invention is directed to a method, including receiving, at a server, a request from an origin device, wherein the origin device is configured to receive input from a first telephonic device via an origin telephonic landline. Information is then output, based on the input, regarding a destination device to the origin device, wherein the destination device is configured to output a call request to a second telephonic device via a destination telephonic landline.
