HEALTH-AWARE CAR ACCIDENT TELEMATICS
First Claim
1. A method performed by a computing system, the method comprising:
- identifying one or more passengers on-board a vehicle;
receiving sensor information from one or more sensors located on-board the vehicle;
detecting occurrence of a crash event involving the vehicle based on the sensor information;
for each passenger of the one or more passengers identified on-board the vehicle, obtaining physiological measurement information for that passenger measured by one or more sensors of a personal electronic device of that passenger during at least a post-crash period of time following the crash event; and
responsive to detecting the occurrence of the crash event, transmitting a set of one or more crash event reporting messages over a communications network directed to a target recipient, the set of one or more crash event reporting messages including the physiological measurement information obtained for each passenger of the one or more passengers identified on-board the vehicle.

Abstract
Personal electronic devices may be wirelessly detected within wireless range of a vehicle. One or more of the passengers may be identified based on an association of each passenger with a respective personal electronic device that was wirelessly detected. Sensor information is received from one or more sensors located on-board the vehicle, and a crash event involving the vehicle is detected based on the sensor information. For each passenger identified on-board the vehicle, physiological measurement information is obtained for that passenger measured by one or more sensors of the personal electronic device of that passenger during the crash event and/or during a post-crash period of time following the crash event. Responsive to detecting the crash event, a set of one or more crash event reporting messages, including the physiological measurement information, are transmitted over a communications network directed to a target recipient.

16. A computing system located on-board a vehicle, comprising:
-
an on-board interface device that interfaces with an on-board diagnostics service of the vehicle via an on-board diagnostics interface, the on-board interface device configured to; wirelessly detect one or more personal electronic device located on-board the vehicle; receive sensor information from one or more vehicle-based sensors integrated with the vehicle via the on-board diagnostics interface; detect occurrence of a crash event involving the vehicle based on the sensor information received via the on-board diagnostics interface; for each personal electronic device of the one or more personal electronic devices, receive physiological measurement information of a passenger measured by one or more sensors of that personal electronic device during at least a post-crash period of time following the crash event and/or during the crash event; and wirelessly transmit a set of one or more crash event reporting messages over a wireless communications network directed to a target recipient, the set of one or more crash event reporting messages including the physiological measurement information received from each personal electronic device. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
