SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING SOFTWARE UPDATES IN ASSEMBLY LINE AND DEALERSHIP LOT ENVIRONMENTS

In an example, an access point device for providing software updates to vehicles is disclosed. In an example implementation, the access point device includes a communication module that is configuredto establish a wireless connection with respective control modules of the vehicles. The communication module is configured to receive vehicle identification information from the respective vehicles. The access point device also includes a vehicle update determination module that is configured to establish a connection with a server and determine whether a software update is available from the server for the vehicles based upon the vehicle identification information. The vehicle update determination module is configured to initiate a download of the software update from the server when the software update is available. 在示例中，公开了种用于向车辆提供软件更新的接入点设备。在示例性实现方式中，接入点设备包括通信模块，该通信模块被配置为与车辆的相应控制模块建立无线连接。通信模块被配置为从各个车辆接收车辆识别信息。接入点设备还包括车辆更新确定模块，该车辆更新确定模块被配置为与服务器建立连接，并基于车辆识别信息确定是否可从服务器获得用于车辆的软件更新。车辆更新确定模块被配置为当软件更新可用时启动从服务器下载软件更新。
