Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for collecting vehicle data from a vehicle engine computer of a vehicle and a plurality of sensors disposed about the vehicle and generating feedbacks for a driver of the vehicle using at least the vehicle data. The systems and methods additionally provide for receiving user inputs from the driver responding to the feedbacks so that the user inputs are associated with corresponding rule violations that triggered the feedbacks.

21. A system comprising:
-
an electronic device comprising digital logic circuitry and configured to be installed in a vehicle, the electronic device comprising a port configured to couple with a vehicle computer installed in the vehicle and have wired or wireless connections with a plurality of sensors disposed about the vehicle; and a first memory device in communication with the electronic device, the first memory device storing; a plurality of rules prescribing rule violations associated with activities of the vehicle, wherein the electronic device is configured to; while the driver is operating the vehicle, determine in real-time at least one rule violation of the rule violations by the vehicle based at least on a comparison of the plurality of rules to vehicle data received from the vehicle computer or the plurality of sensors, output an interface for presentation to the driver, the interface comprising a driver score area and an indication of at least one rule violation type, receive, via a first selectable interface element, a first user input from the driver, the first user input comprising a selection of one of the at least one rule violation type, in response to the first user input, output at least one rule violation corresponding to the selected one of the at least one rule violation type, receive, via a second selectable interface element, a second user input from the driver, the second user input comprising a selected one of the at least one rule violation, in response to the second user input, present a message area, and receive, via a third selectable interface element, a third user input from the driver, the third user input comprising a response message from the driver associated with the selected one of the at least one rule violation. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)

31. A method comprising:
under control of an electronic device comprising digital logic circuitry and installed in a vehicle, the electronic device comprising a port configured to couple with a vehicle computer installed in the vehicle and have wired or wireless connections with a plurality of sensors disposed about the vehicle; while the driver is operating the vehicle, determining in real-time at least one rule violation by the vehicle based at least on a comparison of vehicle data received from the vehicle computer or the plurality of sensors to a plurality of rules prescribing rule violations associated with activities of the vehicle retrieved from a first memory device in communication with the electronic device, outputting a user interface for presentation to the driver, the user interface comprising a driver score area and an indication of at least one rule violation type, receiving, via a first selectable interface element, a first user input from the driver, the first user input comprising a selection of one of the at least one rule violation type, in response to the first user input, outputting at least one rule violation corresponding to the selected one of the at least one rule violation type, receiving, via a second selectable interface element, a second user input from the driver, the second user input comprising a selected one of the at least one rule violation, in response to the second user input, presenting a message area, and receiving, via a third selectable interface element, a third user input from the driver, the third user input comprising a response message from the driver associated with the selected one of the at least one rule violation. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35)

36. A non-transitory physical computer storage comprising instructing stored thereon for implementing, in one or more processors, a method comprising:
while a driver is operating a vehicle having a vehicle computer installed in the vehicle and a plurality of sensors disposed about the vehicle and connected to the vehicle computer by wired or wireless connections, determining in real-time at least one rule violation by the vehicle based at least on a comparison of vehicle data received from the vehicle computer or the plurality of sensors to a plurality of rules prescribing rule violations associated with activities of the vehicle, outputting a user interface for presentation to the driver, the user interface comprising a driver score area and an indication of at least one rule violation type, receiving, via a first selectable interface element, a first user input from the driver, the first user input comprising a selection of one of the at least one rule violation type, in response to the first user input, outputting at least one rule violation corresponding to the selected one of the at least one rule violation type, receiving, via a second selectable interface element, a second user input from the driver, the second user input comprising a selected one of the at least one rule violation, in response to the second user input, presenting a message area, and receiving, via a third selectable interface element, a third user input from the driver, the third user input comprising a response message from the driver associated with the selected one of the at least one rule violation. - View Dependent Claims (37, 38, 39, 40)
