1. A system comprising:
- a computerized appliance; and
software executing from a non-transitory medium on the computerized appliance and providing;
collecting raw data regarding vehicle operation from sensors implemented in the vehicle during real-time operation by a specific person, the raw data comprising at least acceleration, deceleration, continued average speed, centrifugal force, braking patterns, gearshift manipulation patterns, frequency of lane changes, adjusted seat position, and adjusted mirror position;
associating the collected data to pre-programmed event categories;
developing a signature value for individual ones of the categories based on at least filtering and processing the collected data in each category, the signature values expressed as digital strings;
concatenating the digital strings from each category into a single digital string as a digital signature for the specific person; and
testing the digital signature for the specific person against other digital signatures stored for other persons to determine that the digital signature is indeed unique.

Abstract
A system for developing a digital signature identifying a specific person operating a vehicle uses a computerized appliance and software or firmware executing from a non-transitory medium on the computerized appliance and providing a first function collecting raw data regarding vehicle operation from sensors implemented in the vehicle during operation by the specific person, a second function analyzing the raw data and identifying at least one pattern of behavior associated with the specific person; and a third function developing a digital signature from the analyzed data for that specific person.

8. A method comprising the steps of:
-
(a) collecting, by a computerized appliance from sensors implemented in the vehicle, and during operation by a specific person, raw data regarding vehicle operation, the raw data comprising at least acceleration, deceleration, continued average speed, centrifugal force, braking patterns, gearshift manipulation patterns, frequency of lane changes, adjusted seat position, and adjusted mirror position; (b) associating the collected data to pre-programmed event categories; (c) developing a signature value for individual ones of the event categories based on at least filtering and processing the collected data in each category, the signature values expressed as machine-readable digital strings; and (d) concatenating the digital strings from each category into a single digital string as a digital signature for the specific person; and testing the digital signature for the specific person against other digital signatures stored for other persons to determine that the digital signature is indeed unique. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
