Abstract
A computer-implemented method of transmitting data via a network from a client device to a computer server includes collecting data from one or more sensors in or about a vehicle, generating an image representing the collected data, and transmitting the image to a computer server via multimedia messaging service (MMS) protocol. In other exemplary embodiments, a computer-implemented method of receiving data from one or more client devices includes transmitting a request for data to a client device of the one or more client devices via MMS protocol, receiving an image representing data collected by the client device via MMS protocol in response to the request, and decoding the image to reveal the collected data. Example embodiments of client devices, computer servers, and non-transitory computer readable medium for storing computer-executable instructions for performing one or more of the example methods are also disclosed.
