AUTOMATIC DEVICE INITIALIZATION AND PAIRING
First Claim
1. An automatic pairing system comprising:
- a vehicle initialization module loaded onto a vehicle abstraction device configured to interface with a vehicle;
a vehicle pairing module loaded on the vehicle abstraction device, the vehicle pairing module being configured to be launched by the vehicle initialization module and, after being launched, configured to automatically communicate vehicle pairing data stored on the vehicle pairing module to a mobile device to establish one or more communication channels between the vehicle and the mobile device; and
a triggering mechanism configured to trigger the vehicle initialization module to launch the vehicle pairing module.

Abstract
An example embodiment includes an automatic pairing system. The automatic pairing system includes a vehicle initialization module, a vehicle pairing module, and a triggering mechanism. The vehicle initialization module is loaded onto a vehicle abstraction device configured to interface with a vehicle. The vehicle pairing module is loaded on the vehicle abstraction device. The vehicle pairing module is configured to be launched by the vehicle initialization module. After being launched, the vehicle pairing module is configured to automatically communicate vehicle pairing data stored on the vehicle pairing module to establish one or more communication channels between the vehicle and a mobile device. The triggering mechanism is configured to trigger the vehicle initialization module to launch the vehicle pairing module.
