  • Publication number: 20230297058
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for an end-to-end wireless sensor hub include: configuring a sensor hubs in an order using a sequence established by 5 a time of addition to a network. The sensor hubs is grouped into one or more groups. Sensor data captured by the one or more groups is obtained according to a current group number, wherein the sensor data is obtained from each group of the one or more groups according to a predetermined schedule.

  • Publication number: 20230124529
    Abstract: Techniques are described for determining an amount of fuel that is consumed by the body components of a vehicle, based at least partly on sensor data describing the operations of the body components and/or the location of the vehicle. A vehicle is equipped with a body that has any suitable number of body components that perform operations not directly associated with the translational movement of the vehicle from one location to another. Fuel is consumed to provide power (e.g., through power take off) to operate the body components. The vehicle includes sensor device(s) configured to sense the operations of the body components and generate sensor data that describes the operations of the body components. The sensor data is analyzed to determine an amount of fuel that is consumed to power the operations of the body components.
