Patent attributes
The subject application relates to monitoring of drive by wire sensors in vehicles. Systems, methods and apparatuses of predictive maintenance of drive by wire systems of vehicles are provided. For example, a data storage device is configured in a vehicle to receive and store sensor data from at least one drive by wire system of the vehicle. During a period in which the vehicle is assumed to be operating normally, the sensor data stored in the data storage device is used to train an artificial neural network to recognize the normal patterns in the sensor data. Subsequently, using the trained artificial neural network, the data storage device determines whether operations of the at least one drive by wire system are abnormal based on the sensor data. A maintenance alert can be generated for the vehicle in response to a determination that the operations of the at least one drive by wire system are abnormal according to the artificial neural network.
