METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ON-BOARD AUTOMOTIVE AUDIO RECORDER
First Claim
1. A recording system coupled to an on-board diagnostic system, the recording system comprising:
- at least one sensor device for detecting at least one of a vibratory and acoustic signals, said at least one of a vibratory and acoustic signals being undetected by said on-board diagnostic system;
a recording device module for generating and storing an audio data associated with said undetected signals; and
at least one processor coupled to the recording device module, wherein the at least one processor is configured for executing application software for integrating said audio data into said on-board diagnostic system.

Abstract
A recording system coupled to an on-board diagnostic system is provided. The recording system includes at least one sensor device for detecting signals undetected by the on-board diagnostic system; a recording device module for generating and storing audio data associated with the undetected signals; and a processor coupled to the recording device module. In one embodiment, the processor is configured for executing application software for integrating the audio data into the on-board diagnostic system. The recording system further includes time stamping circuitry operably connected to the recording device module for associating a time code with the undetected signals for generating a time-stamped electrical data signals.
