Abstract

Disclosed are various embodiments for a fingerprinting application. Data and optionally additional metadata for an operational automobile are captured by an application executed on a mobile device inside the automobile. An fingerprinting application matches the data to known data profiles to confirm the identity or type of the automobile. Diagnostics of the automobile can be determined by variations in the data with respect to a defined standard. The data can include one or more of audio data, accelerometer data, vibration, data and orientation data.
