Determining a remedial action for a motorized vehicle based on sensed vibration
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An apparatus comprising:
- a vibration sensor to sense a vibration of a motorized vehicle; and
a circuit tocompare the sensed vibration to previously recognized vibration patterns corresponding to maintenance and safety issues,based on the comparison, determine whether the sensed vibration corresponds to a maintenance issue or an immediate safety issue,in response to a determination that the sensed vibration corresponds to a maintenance issue, transmit data indicative of the sensed vibration to a remotely disposed data center for storage and analysis, andin response to a determination that the sensed vibration corresponds to an immediate safety issue, display an alert on an onboard display of the motorized vehicle to alert an operator of the motorized vehicle.

Abstract
An apparatus that includes a vibration sensor and a circuit. The vibration sensor provides an indication of vibration sensed in a motorized vehicle. The circuit determines a remedial action to be taken for the motorized vehicle based at least in part on the sensed vibration.

7. A method comprising:
-
sensing, by a vibration sensor in a motorized vehicle, a vibration of the motorized vehicle; comparing, by a circuit in the motorized vehicle, the sensed vibration to previously recognized vibration patterns corresponding to maintenance and safety issues; based on the comparison, determining, by the circuit, whether the sensed vibration corresponds to a maintenance issue or an immediate safety issue; in response to a determination that the sensed vibration corresponds to a maintenance issue, transmitting data indicative of the sensed vibration to a remotely disposed data center for storage and analysis; and in response to a determination that the sensed vibration corresponds to an immediate safety issue, displaying an alert on an onboard display of the motorized vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10)

11. An article comprising a non-transitory computer accessible storage medium to store instructions that when executed by a processor-based system cause the processor-based system to:
-
sense a vibration in a motorized vehicle; compare the sensed vibration to previously recognized vibration patterns corresponding to maintenance and safety issues; based on the comparison, determine whether the sensed vibration corresponds to a maintenance issue or an immediate safety issue; in response to a determination that the sensed vibration corresponds to a maintenance issue, transmit data indicative of the sensed vibration to a remotely disposed data center for storage and analysis; and in response to a determination that the sensed vibration corresponds to an immediate safety issue, display an alert on an onboard display of the motorized vehicle to alert an operator of the motorized vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13)
