  • Patent number: 10645738
    Abstract: The concepts and technologies disclosed herein provide a vehicle system that can prompt a user to select a BLUETOOTH pairing type—normal or temporary. In response to receiving selection of a temporary BLUETOOTH pairing type, the vehicle system can prompt the user to select a trigger for terminating a temporary pairing period during which the user device and the vehicle system are to be temporarily paired, and the vehicle system can receive selection of the trigger. The user device and the vehicle system can be paired. The vehicle system can receive data associated with the user and can store the data in a vehicle memory. The vehicle system can monitor for activation of the trigger. In response to the trigger being activated, the vehicle system can terminate the temporary pairing period thereby unpairing the user device and the vehicle system and can delete the data from the vehicle memory.

  • Patent number: 10516595
    Abstract: A network device that operates as an analysis platform for analysis of event data records that can provide a flexible approach to event data record aggregation. For example, aggregation can be flexibly turned on or off and dynamically adjusted based on event record volume and other factors such as network capacity or throughput. Devices that are instructed to aggregate records can also be instructed to archive the raw records, e.g., to maintain a full fidelity log of events. Devices can further be instructed to utilize a mixed queue approach to determine an order to deliver those records that includes both older records and newer records.
