Systems and methods for managing and processing vehicle operator accounts based on vehicle operation data
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method of processing driver accounts associated with detected driver events in a vehicle, the method comprising:
- facilitating, by one or more processors, a login of a driver with a vehicle manager entity associated with a vehicle, the login resulting in a temporary association of the driver with the vehicle for a trip, wherein the driver has a cumulative driver rating reflective of at least one prior performance by the driver during at least one prior temporary association with the vehicle;
after facilitating the login, tracking, by the one or more processors, operation of the vehicle by the driver during the trip, the tracking facilitated by a set of sensors and resulting in a set of vehicle operation data;
detecting, by the one or more processors, a logout of the driver with the vehicle manager entity, the logout reflective of a conclusion of (i) the operation of the vehicle by the driver, and (ii) the temporary association of the driver with the vehicle;
responsive to detecting the logout, analyzing, by the one or more processors, the set of vehicle operation data to calculate, for the driver, a quantitative driving score associated with the operation of the vehicle;
adjusting, by the one or more processors, the cumulative driver rating for the driver to reflect the quantitative driving score, wherein the cumulative driver rating that was adjusted at least meets a threshold rating; and
determining, by the one or more processors, that the driver qualifies for a reward when the cumulative driver rating has maintained at least the threshold rating over a course of the temporary association and the at least one prior temporary association.

Abstract
Methods and systems for analyzing vehicle operation data associated with a temporary or periodic usage of a vehicle by a driver. In aspects, the driver may associate with an electronic device within the vehicle that may record or collect the vehicle operation data. After the vehicle operation has concluded, the vehicle operation data may be analyzed to assess a performance of the driver during operation of the vehicle, whereby the performance may be influenced by positive or negative driving events. Based on the performance of the driver, a profile or account of the user may be processed accordingly such that the user may be incentivized to modify certain driving behaviors.

8. An electronic device associated with a vehicle for processing driver accounts associated with detected driver events in the vehicle, comprising:
-
a communication interface for collecting data; a memory storing non-transitory computer executable instructions included in an application; and a particularly programmed processor interfaced with the communication interface, wherein the processor executes the application to cause the processor to; facilitate a login of a driver with a vehicle manager entity associated with a vehicle, the login resulting in a temporary association of the driver with the vehicle for a trip, wherein the driver has a cumulative driver rating reflective of at least one prior performance by the driver during at least one prior temporary association with the vehicle; after facilitating the login, track, via the communication interface, operation of the vehicle by the driver during the trip, the tracking facilitated by a set of sensors and resulting in a set of vehicle operation data; detect a logout of the driver with the vehicle manager entity, the logout reflective of a conclusion of (i) the operation of the vehicle by the driver, and (ii) the temporary association of the driver with the vehicle; responsive to detecting the logout, analyze the set of vehicle operation data to calculate, for the driver, a quantitative driving score associated with the operation of the vehicle; adjust the cumulative driver rating for the driver to reflect the quantitative driving score, wherein the cumulative driver rating that was adjusted at least meets a threshold rating; and determine that the driver qualifies for a reward when the cumulative driver rating has maintained at least the threshold rating over a course of the temporary association and the at least one prior temporary association. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
