Apparatus, methods, and systems for tracking vehicle battery usage with a blockchain

摘要

Apparatus, systems, and methods for tracking vehicle battery usage with a blockchain. One such method includes detecting, using one or more sensors, one or more operating parameters of a vehicle, at least one of the one or more operating parameters being associated with a battery of the vehicle. A battery-critical event is identified based on the detected one or more operating parameters of the vehicle. Information associated with the detected one or more operating parameters of the vehicle is communicated via a network and to a central server; information associated with the detected one or more operating parameters of the vehicle and the identified battery-critical event is aggregated in a blockchain using the central server. The information associated with the detected one or more operating parameters of the vehicle and the identified battery-critical event is queried from the blockchain to ascertain a usage history of the battery.
