Claim 0:
1. A process of providing dynamic industrial vehicle monitoring for modification of vehicle operator behavior, the process comprising:
receiving by a processor on an industrial vehicle, an operator identification identifying a vehicle operator that has logged onto the industrial vehicle;
loading into a memory that is accessible by the processor, a metric that characterizes an event associated with operation of an industrial vehicle, the metric having a performance parameter to evaluate against the event, wherein the event is based on environmental awareness that is external to the vehicle;
monitoring operation of the industrial vehicle by processing code by the processor to detect conditions from information obtained from querying components of the industrial vehicle across a vehicle network bus of the industrial vehicle that identifies an occurrence of the event characterized by the metric; and
performing, upon detecting the occurrence of the event:
recording into the memory, operator behavior data that characterizes an action of a vehicle operator, the action associated with the event;
evaluating the recorded operator behavior data stored in the memory against the performance parameter loaded into the memory, by comparing the recorded operator behavior data to a threshold to determine whether the vehicle operator demonstrated an appropriate behavior for the detected event; and
automatically performing by the processor, where the vehicle operator did not demonstrate the appropriate behavior, a behavior modification action, wherein the behavior modification action is performed by the processor automatically without human intervention, in real-time following the event independently of reporting the recorded operator behavior data to a server, by conveying an output message to a device on the industrial vehicle that comprises an instruction on a particular desired behavior in response to the event.
