International Classification:

G06F 7/00

US Classification:

701 36, 701 29, 701 35, 340438

Abstract:

A technique for providing management of a motor vehicle information system includes a number of steps. Initially, a wake-up message is received from a portable transmitter. In general, the wake-up message, unique to the portable transmitter, is provided responsive to user activation of a button that is electrically coupled to the portable transmitter. Next, it is determined whether power capability of the motor vehicle is adequate responsive to receipt of the wake-up message. When the motor vehicle power capability is adequate, power is provided to a wireless interface, a vehicle information system and a mass storage device, all of which are located within the motor vehicle. Information is then received via the wireless interface and stored in the mass storage device, when the power capability of the motor vehicle is adequate.

Abstract:

A system for executing a high-reliability application and a third party application is provided. The system includes an application module and a second module. The application module has control logic for executing the high reliability application and the third party application. The high reliability application generates a message sequence. The application module includes a normal operating mode, a high reliability mode, and a high reliability boot. The second module is in communication with the application module, and includes a first control logic for monitoring the message sequence when the application module is operating in the normal operating mode. The second module also includes control logic for initiating the high reliability boot in the application module.

US Classification:

340/005520, 340/005530, 340/426120

Abstract:

A security system including a vehicle based security manager processor and a communications module linked to the security manager processor. The communications module is capable of communicating to a remote call center by way of an internet communication link. If certain security protocols are breached, the call center communicates a shutdown command to the vehicle by way of the internet communications link and the vehicle initiates a shutdown procedure for incapacitating the vehicle.

International Classification:

G01C021/26

US Classification:

701/213000, 701/001000

Abstract:

An improved application processing system (A, B, C, D, E) which utilizes both on-board components and off-board components connected via wireless data transfer devices (). On-board the vehicle is a user interface, or a microphone (), which receives data in the form of human speech from the user (), and components for digitization () and feature extraction () of the data with the data then being sent to an off-board processing system (), which may include a speech recognition system () and a voice-enabled program application (). After the data has been processed by the off-board system (), the data is retransmitted to the on-board system, where the processed data () is converted from text to speech (), reconstructed as speech (), or displayed. The display or speech is then distributed to the drive or occupants by a radio (), handheld device, or a display unit ().

International Classification:

G01C021/34

US Classification:

701209000, 340995190

Abstract:

A vehicle navigation system uses a simple graphic user interface (GUI) to display a route formed by a sequence of route segments. At any given time, the vehicle navigation system displays a single route segment, defined either as the distance between consecutive turn points or as a fixed distance. The vehicle navigation system also displays a graphic representation of the vehicle. The user can scroll backward and forward through the sequence of route segments using a simple control, such as a knob or a keypad. As a result, the user can view the entire route easily without having to mentally adjust to different frames of reference, such as between an overview map and a detailed map.

International Classification:

G06F 17/21

US Classification:

704010000

Abstract:

A multi-context speech recognition system includes a device for providing phrase based speech recognition and keyword based speech recognition from a single user utterance. A first speech recognition engine coupled to a phrase based dictionary is used for searching out matches between the utterance and one or more entries in the phrase based dictionary. A second speech engine is coupled to a keyword based dictionary for searching out matches between the utterance and one or more entries found in a keyword based dictionary.

International Classification:

H04H 500

US Classification:

381 15

Abstract:

An adaptive audio processor for stereo AM broadcast signals includes independent signal processing paths. Each path has a variable lowpass filter and a matrix and variable Q 10 kHz notch filter to form LEFT and RIGHT channel signals with a 10 kHz notched pass band determined by adjacent channel noise. A 10 kHz pass band signal representative of adjacent channel noise from one of the signal processing paths is compared to a reference to generate a correction signal that is fedback to control the lowpass and notch filters. The correction signal adjusts the pass band and Q of the lowpass and notch filters so that the effects of adjacent channel noise are minimized. Other receiver signals which are reflective of the quality of the received broadcast signal, e. g. , the AGC signal, an excess modulation signal, and a receiver microprocessor signal are similarly employed to control the lowpass and notch filters.
