Definitions

  • Communication media can include, for example and not limitation, wired media such as a wired network or direct-wired connection, and wireless media such as acoustic, RF, infrared and other wireless media. Combinations of any of the above can also be included within the scope of computer readable media.
  • a user can enter commands and information such as, for example and not limitation, driver's license, credit card, and rental information.
  • the information can be entered into the VAC 210 using input devices such as a keyboard 362 and/or pointing device 361, commonly referred to as a mouse, trackball, or touch pad.
  • Other input devices can include a microphone, joystick, game pad, satellite dish, scanner, electronic white board, or the like.
  • the VAC 210 can comprise multiple configurations and components, including onboard computing, GPS, and other capabilities. In a preferred embodiment, however, the VAC 210 can have minimal on-board capabilities by leveraging internet, user interface, GPS, and cellular capabilities, among other things, from the user's portable electronic device 215. In some embodiments, therefore, the VAC 210 can use only a connection the vehicle (e.g., OBD-II) and a connection to the portable electronic device (e.g., Bluetooth). In other words, the remainder of the functions can be provided by the user's portable electronic device.
  • the vehicle e.g., OBD-II
  • the portable electronic device e.g., Bluetooth
  • the VAC 210 can provide vehicle immobilization services. This can enable a rental vehicle 520 to be disabled using, for example and not limitation, the vehicle's ignition, starting, or fuel systems. In some embodiments,
  • many vehicles utilize electronic, or electronically shifted, transmissions.
  • the shift lever in the vehicle 520 when the user moves the shift lever in the vehicle 520, it is not directly connected to the vehicle's transmission, but rather is a positional switch.
  • the shifter commands a solenoid, either directly or through the vehicle's computer 545, to shift the vehicle's transmission into Drive.
  • the system 500 can prevent the transmission from shifting out of Park unless and until the vehicle 520 has been properly rented and accessed.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de location de véhicules. Ce système peut comprendre un dispositif de communication pour l'accès à un véhicule (« VAC ») apte à servir d'interface avec une ou plusieurs fonctions d'un véhicule de location et un dispositif électronique portable fourni par l'utilisateur. Le VAC peut commander différentes fonctions du véhicule comprenant, mais sans y être limitées, les serrures de porte et/ou l'activation/désactivation du véhicule. Le VAC peut également surveiller différentes fonctions du véhicule comprenant, mais sans y être limitées, le niveau de carburant et/ou les relevés du compteur kilométrique.
