摘要： A telephone system includes a telephone adaptor module with rule-based audio playback in wireless function programming capabilities. The system allows existing telephones to be retrofit with rule-based audio playback functionality. A physically independent remote programming device is used for transmitting function programming information in audio content to the device via wired or wireless transmission. Rule-based audio playback provides ring tone functionality in which user selected audio clips may be played back instead of the conventional telephone ring. The audio clip that is played when a call is received will be based on the rule-based playback scheme programmed by the user. Audio content may also be played back according to programmed rules which do not require a telephone call to be received, but can be activated by other conditions (time of day, temperature, etc.).

摘要： This invention describes a system that plays back content based on in-vehicle function triggers. The invention may be used for a variety of applications. In one example, the control unit ties to the remote keyless entry (RKE) system and uses the vehicle signal to the function as playback trigger for the content. In-vehicle subsystems such as warning and information signals or other systems with manual triggers like the RKE system may also be tied to the vehicle unit to trigger content playback. Content delivery scenarios provide secure and robust transmission from an original source to the vehicle unit. The vehicle unit stores the content in an on-board storage. Content loading and operation of the system is configured using a computer or handheld device.

摘要： This invention describes a system that plays back content based on user-configurable in-vehicle function triggers, and manual user triggers. The invention may be used for a variety of applications such as vehicle personalization and customization, vehicle event-acknowledgement, and entertainment. In one example, the control unit ties to the remote keyless entry (RKE) system and uses the RKE wireless buttons as playback triggers for the content. In-vehicle subsystems such as warning and information signals or other systems with manual triggers like the RKE system may also be tied to the vehicle unit to trigger content playback. Content delivery scenarios provide secure and robust transmission from an original source to the vehicle unit. The vehicle unit stores the content in an on-board storage. Content loading and operation of the system is configured using a computer or handheld device.

摘要： An occupant presence and child seat detection system includes several sensors to assist a capacitance based occupant presence detection system in distinguishing an occupant from a child seat on a wet vehicle seat. In one configuration, capacitance on the seating surface and wetness of the seating surface are measured. The determination of the presence of an occupant is based upon the measured capacitance and the measured wetness.

摘要： A vehicle passenger seat sensor network includes a plurality of vehicle seats, each having a plurality of occupant sensors associated therewith. A seat processor on each seat performs some analysis and processing of the data from the plurality of sensors and sends information based upon the data over a network to a central processor. The central processor receives the information from each of the seats and takes appropriate action based upon this information. For example, the central processor may record and/or transmit the number of passengers, seat belt usage, health of the passengers. The central processor may also determine whether safety restraint systems, such as airbags, associated with that vehicle seat, should be deployed in the event of a collision.

摘要： This invention is a system and process for determining and verifying the voracity of data gathered for use in recording and tracking vehicle usage. The device operates to verify and detect events that may affect data integrity by sensing a condition indicative of faulty data acquisition or of corruption of data integrity. Data evidencing potential problems are encoded and included with normal data uploaded to a central server. The central server compares the encoded entries against criteria that have been determined to indicate potential data inconsistencies.

摘要： A wireless distribution network provides content delivery and data collection to and from portable devices. The network connects a server controlling access to content storage by home nodes, service center nodes and a plurality of wireless nodes. The wireless nodes are disposed at a plurality of locations, such as gas stations (vehicle service stations). The plurality of wireless nodes are connected to the server via the network. Each wireless node is capable of transferring information wirelessly between the node and one of a plurality of portable devices. Each node is capable of detecting and identifying each of the plurality of portable devices. Each node transfers information between the node and the plurality of portable devices based upon the detection and identification of the portable devices. The node also transfers the information between the node and the first computer based upon the detection and identification of the portable devices.
