Battery monitor system attached to a vehicle wiring harness

A computer system that installs in the proximity of the vehicle's operator by attaching to the vehicle's wiring harness (e.g., via a power outlet in the vehicle cabin). The device, gathers data relating to the operational state of the vehicle's battery, calculates various health information of the battery from the gathered data, and provides the health and operational state of the battery to the vehicle's operator. To facilitate battery health calculations, the device receives input from a temperature sensor that is remote to the battery, such as a temperature sensor in the device's housing or in the vehicle cabin. The temperature reading can be used to approximate the temperature of the battery. The computer system can also support non-battery related functions, such as navigation, theft deterrence, etc. Algorithms utilizing battery health data over multiple load cycles to determine the health of a battery are also disclosed.

COM persistence model

Software and methods for extending preexisting objects to support persistence. One use of the present invention is to extend component object model (COM) objects to support persistence in a simple, predefined system. COM objects may be saved to persistence storage and loaded from persistence storage using user-provided save and load methods. When objects are constructed, the objects are added to a Persistent Object Registry. Objects preferably utilize smart pointers, rather than simple pointers, in order to enable restoration of the pointer values after a save and load cycle. The smart pointers include an object ID along with the address. The object ID, together with the information stored in the Persistent Object Registry, may be used to restore a pointer value after loading. Objects may be saved by streaming the objects out and loaded by streaming the objects back into memory from a file.
