  • Patent number: 11760376
    Abstract: A system includes a vehicle control module, a vehicle gateway module, and a wired vehicle communications network communicatively coupling the vehicle gateway module to the vehicle control module. The vehicle control module is programmed to receive sensor data from at least one sensor, execute a machine-learning program trained to determine whether the sensor data satisfies at least one criterion, and transmit the sensor data satisfying the at least one criterion to the vehicle gateway module. The vehicle gateway module is programmed to transmit the machine-learning program to the vehicle control module; upon receiving the sensor data from the vehicle control module, store the sensor data; and upon establishing a connection with a remote server, transmit the sensor data to the remote server.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10916073
    Abstract: A vehicle system comprises a gateway controller, configured to collect real-time vehicle data from an electronic control unit (ECU); responsive to receiving a start token from a testing device, send the real-time vehicle data to the testing device via at least two connections of different types, each connection having a predetermined bandwidth; and inverse multiplex the real-time vehicle data into separate real-time data streams that match the predetermined bandwidth of each connection.
