Modern cars are equipped with plenty of electronic devices called electronic control units (ECUs).They collect diagnostic data from a car's components to control their work, assess the quality of their work, and detect defects.Regardless of the development of onboard computers, only a small amount of information is passed on to the driver.This paper describes how to build a data-collecting environment for real-data acquisition from a car.The system (whose components include an Android--based smartphone and Torque PRO application) is able to send data via the Internet to a chosen server in real time.The collected data can be further analyzed both online and offline.
