SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VEHICLE EVENT DETECTION

Systems and methods for determining vehicle operational status in accordance with embodiments of the invention are disclosed. In one embodiment, a vehicle event detection device includes a low pass filter configured to sense a vehicle voltage and filter the sensed voltage to remove noise, and a plurality of first high pass filter configured to detect either a drop or a rise in the vehicle voltage and several low power comparators configured to determine whether the drop or rise in voltage is indicative of a vehicle event.
