Determining available storage capacity of a vehicle
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a system comprising a processor via a sensor component, data representing at least one characteristic of a first object, the system and the sensor component being included in a vehicle including storage space;
detecting, by the system via the sensor component, that the first object has been removed from the storage space of the vehicle;
determining, by the system, that the data representing the at least one characteristic of the first object indicates an increase in the storage space of the vehicle based on detecting the first object has been removed from the storage space;
receiving, by the system via the sensor component, data representing at least one characteristic of a second object, the second object being included in the storage space of the vehicle;
determining, by the system, that the data representing the at least one characteristic of the second object indicates a probability of a movement of the second object in the storage space; and
sending, by the system, a message directed to a device comprising a warning indicating the probability of the movement of the second object within the storage space.

Abstract
Tracking remaining storage capacity of a vehicle using sensors via a wireless system of the vehicle is presented herein. A method can include receiving first data representing an object; receiving second data representing a storage space of a vehicle; and determining, using the first data and the second data, whether the object is capable of placement within the storage space of the vehicle. In an example, the method can further include displaying information representing an order of placements of a set of objects comprising the object, a proposed location for the object, and/or a proposed orientation for the object within the storage space of the vehicle in response to the object being determined to be capable of placement within the storage space of the vehicle.

7. A system comprising:
-
a processor; a sensor component; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising; receiving, via the sensor component, data representing at least one characteristic of a first object, the sensor component being included in a vehicle including a storage area; detecting, via the sensor component, a removal of the first object from the storage area of the vehicle; determining that the data representing the at least one characteristic of the first object indicates an increase in the storage area of the vehicle based on detecting the removal of the first object from the storage area; receiving, via the sensor component, data representing at least one characteristic of a second object, the second object being included in the storage area of the vehicle; determining that the data representing the at least one characteristic of the second object indicates a probability of a movement of the second object in the storage area; and sending, to a wireless device, a message comprising a warning indicating the probability of the movement of the second object within the storage area. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 20)

16. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
-
receiving, via a sensor component, data representing at least one characteristic of a first object, the sensor component being included in a vehicle including a storage area; detecting, via the sensor component, that the first object has been removed from the storage area of the vehicle; determining that the data representing the at least one characteristic of the first object indicates an increase in the storage area of the vehicle based on detecting the first object has been removed from the storage area; receiving, via the sensor component, data representing at least one characteristic of a second object, the second object being included in the storage area of the vehicle; determining that the data representing the at least one characteristic of the second object indicates a probability of a movement of the second object in the storage area; and sending to a wireless device, a message comprising a warning indicating the probability of the movement of the second object within the storage area. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18)
