Biometric data-driven application of vehicle operation settings
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a scanner disposed on a vehicle steering wheel;
a computer processor communicatively coupled to the scanner over a vehicle network; and
logic executable by the computer processor, the logic configured to implement a method, the method comprising;
receiving, from the scanner over the vehicle network, biometric data for an operator of a vehicle;
comparing the biometric data from the scanner to sets of biometric data stored in a memory device of the vehicle;
upon determining that the biometric data from the scanner matches one of the sets of biometric data stored in the memory device, retrieving operational settings configured for the operator, the one of the sets of biometric data mapped to the operational settings configured for the operator;
monitoring vehicle operational data for a triggering event caused by exceeding at least one of the operational settings, the operational settings include a speed limit, the triggering event comprising a speed of the vehicle reaching a maximum speed value set by the speed limit; and
implementing at least one action in response to an occurrence of the triggering event, wherein the at least one action includes generating and transmitting an electronic message to an owner of the vehicle that notifies the owner of the triggering event.

Abstract
Biometric data-driven application of vehicle operations is implemented by a scanner, a computer processor communicatively coupled to the scanner over a vehicle network, and logic executable by the computer processor. The logic receives, from the scanner over the vehicle network, biometric data for an operator of a vehicle and compares the biometric data from the scanner to sets of biometric data stored in a memory device of the vehicle. Upon determining that the biometric data from the scanner matches one of the sets of biometric data stored in the memory device, the logic retrieves operational settings configured for the operator and implements at least one action to achieve a result defined by the operational settings.

16. A computer program product comprising a computer-readable storage medium having instructions embodied thereon, which when executed by a computer cause a computer to implement a method, the method comprising:
-
receiving over a vehicle network, from a scanner disposed on a vehicle steering wheel, biometric data for an operator of a vehicle; comparing the biometric data from the scanner to sets of biometric data stored in a memory device of the vehicle; upon determining that the biometric data from the scanner matches one of the sets of biometric data stored in the memory device, retrieving operational settings configured for the operator, the one of the sets of biometric data mapped to the operational settings configured for the operator; monitoring vehicle operational data for a triggering event caused by exceeding at least one of the operational settings, the operational settings include a speed limit, the triggering event comprising a speed of the vehicle reaching a maximum speed value set by the speed limit; and implementing at least one action in response to an occurrence of the triggering event, wherein the at least one action includes generating and transmitting an electronic message to an owner of the vehicle that notifies the owner of the triggering event.
