Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional telematics data collection requires multiple party-specific devices, leading to inefficiencies in data sharing and management across different parties, necessitating a system for improved universality in collecting and sharing telematics data.

Innovation Solution

A telematics marketplace system that collects and manages vehicle operator profiles based on relative telematics inferences, using sensors like GPS, accelerometers, and gyroscopes to generate profiles, determine relative desirability, and share data among multiple participants.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If multiple party-specific devices are used for telematics data collection, then each party can collect data for their own use, but data sharing and management across different parties becomes inefficient and complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata collection reliabilityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements a universal telematics data collection system where a single multi-functional device or platform can collect and share data across multiple parties (insurance companies, automotive manufacturers, service providers). This eliminates the need for each party to deploy separate party-specific devices, thereby reducing system complexity while maintaining reliable data collection for all stakeholders through a unified infrastructure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Productivity

If telematics data is collected and shared across multiple parties, then data-driven insights and personalized offers can be generated, but user control over data access and privacy becomes more challenging

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata sharing efficiencyVSAvoiduser control ease
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent incorporates feedback mechanisms where users can monitor, review, and control their data sharing preferences and access permissions. The system provides users with visibility into which parties access their telematics data and allows them to adjust their privacy settings and data sharing consent dynamically, thereby maintaining ease of operation while enabling efficient multi-party data sharing.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Adaptability or versatility

If relative telematics inferences are used to manage vehicle operator profiles, then personalized insights and offers can be provided, but data processing and profile management complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprofile personalization capabilityVSAvoiddata processing complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements self-service mechanisms where the system automatically generates relative telematics inferences, vehicle operator profiles, personalized insights, and offers without requiring manual intervention. The platform autonomously processes telematics data, compares it against benchmarks and peer groups, and delivers personalized results, thereby reducing processing complexity while maintaining high adaptability and personalization capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

AI summary

Method, system, device, and non-transitory computer-readable medium for data management. In some examples, a computer-implemented method can include: receiving personal data sets associated with vehicle operators; receiving, via sensors, sensor data sets associated with the vehicle operators, wherein the sensors comprise at least one of a Global Positioning Systems (GPS) sensor configured to provide a geographic location, an accelerometer configured to provide at least a linear or angular acceleration, or a gyroscope configured to provide orientation sensor data; receiving, from a requesting party of marketplace participants, an information request for a target operator profile associated with a target data profile selected from data profiles of the vehicle operators; and transmitting, in response to the information request, the target operator profile to the requesting party.
