MUMBAI, India, Sept. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202441021625 A) filed by Keerthana S; Deenadhayalan S; Naveen N; Dhayal K; Ragavi D; Vishalini K; Dharani E; Vishali J; Leeban Moses M; and Karthikeyan S, Sathyamangalam, Tamil Nadu, on March 21, 2024, for 'development of a telematic control unit for capturing vital data of a vehicle without using company fitted telemetry data port.'
Inventor(s) include Keerthana S; Deenadhayalan S; Naveen N; Dhayal K; Ragavi D; Vishalini K; Dharani E; Vishali J; Leeban Moses M; and Karthikeyan S.
The application for the patent was published on Sept. 26, under issue no. 39/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "In older model vehicles lacking dedicated Telematics Control Units (TCUs), vehicle owners faced challenges accessing real-time vehicle data, relying instead on authorizEd service centers or manufacturers. To address this, a proposed solution involves the development of TCUs capable of gathering data from various vehicle sensors, including the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) via the Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol. This enables real-time data collection, even without a telemetry data port, facilitating efficient communication between the TCU and ECU. Utilizing H'I'TPS encryption ensures secure transmission of collected data to cloud sewers for analysis, while OAuth 2.0 grams vehicle owners control over data access. Analysis of engine efficiency, fuel consumption, driving behavior, GPS location, and payload weight provides valuable insights presented through user-friendly dashboards, empowering vehicle owners with performance optimization tools and fleet managers with operational insights. The proposed TCU solution addresses the limitations of older vehicle models by enabling real-time data collection and secure transmission for analysis. Through CAN protocol communication and H'l'I'PS encryption, crucial vehicle data is collected and securely transmitted to cloud sewers, where analysis provides valuable insights for vehicle owners and fleet managers. With control over data access via OAuth 2.0, users benefit from performance optimization tools and operational insights, ultimately enhancing vehicle efficiency, reducing costs, and improving safety in fleet management scenarios."
