Surveying Off-Board and Extra-Vehicular Monitoring and Progress Towards Pervasive Diagnostics
share
We survey the state-of-the-art in offboard diagnostics for vehicles, their occupants, and environments, with particular focus on vibroacoustic approaches. We identify promising application areas including data-driven management for shared mobility and automated fleets, usage-based insurance, and vehicle,occupant, and environmental state and condition monitoring. We close by exploring the particular application of vibroacoustic monitoring to vehicle diagnostics and prognostics and propose the introduction of automated vehicle- and context-specific model selection as a means of improving algorithm performance, e.g. to enable smartphone-resident diagnostics. The described approach may serve as the first step in developing "universal diagnostics" utilizing artificial intelligence, with applicability extending beyond the automotive domain.
