System and method for generating vehicle data report with tool measurement
First Claim
1. A method performed by a client computing system including at least one processor, at least one radio transceiver, a user interface including a display, and a system bus that communicatively couples the at least one radio transceiver and the user interface to the at least one processor, the method comprising:
- capturing, by a capture device communicatively coupled to the at least one processor for generating registration data, an image showing a first measurement tool or a multi-dimensional code on or associated with the first measurement tool, wherein the registration data is indicative of the first measurement tool;
determining, by the at least one processor, a selected vehicle and a selected component or system of the selected vehicle;
receiving, by the at least one radio transceiver from the first measurement tool, a communication including data indicating the first measurement tool is selected to perform a first tool measurement;
determining, by the at least one processor based on the registration data and the data indicating the first measurement tool is selected to perform a first tool measurement, the first measurement tool is selected to perform the first tool measurement on the selected component or system of the selected vehicle, wherein the first tool measurement excludes determining data from a vehicle data message;
determining, by the at least one processor, a prior tool measurement;
displaying, on the display before receiving a radio signal, a notification based on the prior tool measurement;
receiving, by the at least one radio transceiver, the radio signal transmitted directly from the first measurement tool to the client computing system over a wireless network established between the client computing system and the first measurement tool, the radio signal carrying the first tool measurement on the selected component or system of the selected vehicle;
determining, by the at least one processor, the first tool measurement on the selected component or system of the selected vehicle from the radio signal carrying the first tool measurement;
generating, by the at least one processor, a vehicle data report including the first tool measurement on the selected component or system of the selected vehicle, data indicative of the selected component or system, and data indicative of the selected vehicle; and
outputting, by the client computing system, the vehicle data report.

Abstract
A computing system can register a measurement tool. The computing system can determine a selected vehicle for a vehicle data report and a selected measurement tool to perform a first tool measurement that excludes determining data from a vehicle data message. The computing system can determine a selected vehicle component for the first tool measurement by the selected measurement tool. The computing system can determine a spatial identifier for the first tool measurement. The computing system can determine the first tool measurement performed by the selected measurement tool. A radio transceiver of the computing system can receive radio signals carrying the first tool measurement from the selected measurement tool. The first tool measurement received by the radio transceiver can be provided to one or more processors of the computing system. The computing system can generate and output the vehicle data report that includes the first tool measurement.
