Abstract
A method and a system for impact detection in a stationary vehicle are provided. The method includes putting a telematics device into a sleep mode, performing at least one micro wakeup, determining at least one value from at least one sensor during the micro wakeup. The method also includes storing the at least one value, returning to sleep mode, and waking up from the sleep mode. The method further includes sending the at least one value over a network interface to a telematics server. The telematics device which carries out the method has a controller, memory, and network interface. An accident impact profile may be recorded during the micro wakeups and sent during a wakeup duration for analysis by the telematics server.
