Claim Text:
1. A system for acquisition of in-vehicle sensor data from a vehicle, comprising: a computer processor; and logic executable by the computer processor, the logic configured to implement a method, the method comprising: collecting energy consumption data from an in-vehicle energy source sensor; collecting emissions data from an in-vehicle emissions sensor, the emissions data reflecting emissions produced by the vehicle; collecting mileage data from a mileage sensor in the vehicle; processing the energy consumption data and the emissions data as a function of the mileage data to calculate results, the results comprising an efficiency rating based on a real time fuel utilization controlled by fuel conserving and emissions reduction technology of the vehicle; transmitting the results of the processing to a data collection system; receiving aggregate performance data from the data collection system, the aggregate performance data representing an aggregation of energy consumption data processed for multiple vehicles; generating a report on amount of green house gas reduced by the vehicle based on the results and the aggregate performance data, the report relating the efficiency rating to the aggregate performance data to inform a vehicle operator of a usage consumption relative to a calculated average across the multiple vehicles, the report comprises vehicle manufacturer and model data with respect to the aggregate performance data and the results; and displaying the report on a display in the vehicle.
