  • Publication number: 20250097299
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses systems and methods that can be implemented on the edge system in a vehicle for near real-time detection of collisions with multi-level confidence (i.e., low confidence, moderate confidence, high confidence), automated gathering and report generation of collision information required for post-accident analysis in a manner suitable for insurance company process workflow and storing the confidential collision details securely on the vehicle (edge) system. Confidence is determined by preconfigured adaptive thresholds measured by sensor data.

  • Publication number: 20250033649
    Abstract: Driver insurance and risk management scores are calculated per driver based on vehicle and driver behavior data collected during driving sessions. Often one vehicle is shared by multiple drivers and one driver can drive multiple vehicles. The present disclosure securely tracks the individual drivers, stores, and retrieves associated driver data for analysis on the edge (vehicle) in near real time. Data collected is analyzed at various time intervals (each trip, daily, monthly) to produce the scores. The goal of the proposed solution minimizes cost associated with data transmission and cloud storage, tracks long term driver driving history on the edge for near real time analysis of driver behavior, minimizes driver distraction due to user device while driving, securely stores and retrieves driver driving data on the edge device associated with the driver, restricts access to the driver driving data, and restricts user device access to servers and telematic units.
