Shin and He believe their technology could transform the landscape of vehicle security. They see two possible futures for Battery Sleuth — either an aftermarket product or a vehicle feature offered in partnership with an automaker. Battery Sleuth could control any vehicle systems that use electricity, He and Shin said. Armed with a $1.2 million National Science Foundation grant, the research team will be testing the endurance and reliability of Battery Sleuth, while also ensuring it does not interfere with normal vehicle systems. More staff will be joining the team this fall to assist in the testing of Battery Sleuth and to help answer those questions.
