  • Patent number: 11770705
    Abstract: Configuration methods and systems include a smart vehicle router associated with router information stored in a router file in a cloud network, and a smart mobile device comprising a camera and software application tool. The router information includes a unique authentication certificate to permit a one-to-one pairing such that another pairing is not available. The configuration system is configured to read an image of an identification component associated with the smart vehicle router and the router information, apply an authentication algorithm to the image to provision the tool with the unique authentication certificate, authenticate the smart vehicle based on the image and authentication algorithm, pair the authenticated smart vehicle with the tool in the one-to-one pairing based on the unique authentication certificate and the router information, and automatically configure the tool on the smart mobile device to retrieve data associated with the authenticated smart vehicle.
