Abstract

An integrated system of communication between people and vehicles involving a diagnostic device installed in the vehicle, a host platform and a personal mobile device, the system being an integrated way of conversation in real-time between individuals and vehicles for generation of automatic event and control of business processes, specifically, but not limited to fleet management and leasing of vehicles.

Claims

1. An integrated system of communication between people and vehicles, comprising a diagnostic device installed in the vehicle, a host platform and a personal mobile device, characterized by being an integrated way of real time conversation between individuals and vehicles for automatic event generation and control of business processes.

2. The system, according to claim 1, characterized by being accessed from requesting information from the user.

3. The system, according to claim 1, characterized by allowing the generation and sending of automatic events from the platform for people and vehicles.

4. The system, according to claim 1, characterized by providing the structuring of statistical and historic bases of vehicles and users.

5. The system, according to claim 1, characterized by being applied to fleets management, leasing of vehicles, and still, adaptable to the management of other business processes.

6. Communication process of the integrated system as defined in claim 1, characterized by a set of instructions that includes the following steps:

Driver requests information,

Vehicle receives request,

Telematics solution obtains information.

Is the information available?
