A first application invokes a first URI specifying a second application as the destination of the first URI. The first URI contains a return URI specifying the first application as the destination of the return URI, and the first URI further specifies an action of returning data from the second application. In response to the invocation of the first URI by the first application, the second application checks that the destination specified by the return URI corresponds to a trusted partner in a set of trusted partners, and on condition that the return URI does indeed correspond to one of the trusted partners in the set, it invokes the return URI in order to return the data to the first application. The return URI uses a secure protocol which authenticates an identity of the destination specified by the return URI, and which returns the data over an encrypted channel.

A mobile device may advertise an application human-machine interface (HMI) service responsive to connection to a computing platform of a vehicle as the primary mobile device. One or more secondary mobile devices may connect to the application HMI service of the primary mobile device. The primary mobile device may provide a user interface of a connected application executed by the primary mobile device to the computing platform and to the at least one secondary mobile device, each secondary device executing the connected application.

The present invention relates to a digital display device for mounting to a vehicle's front bumper. The device is used for customizing an exterior of the vehicle by displaying images, videos and messages as per the preference of the vehicle owner or driver. The display device is configured to connect to a computer implemented software application using a wireless channel for receiving one or more images, videos, or messages (collectively media) for display. The application enables users to subscribe to purchase media by making a payment and transmitting purchased media to the display device for displaying on the vehicle's exterior. The display device can also be configured to display a license plate number of the vehicle.

A normal information display quantity of a head-up display device is set as a first information display quantity, an information display quantity of the head-up display device after a control unit receives a detection signal of detection of installation of a mobile terminal on a terminal holder from a mobile terminal installation detection unit is set as a second information display quantity, in which the second information display quantity is set to be smaller than the first information display quantity, and at least a part of display information that is displayed in the first information display quantity but is not displayed in the second information display quantity is displayed on the mobile terminal.

Exemplary embodiments relate to a vehicle control system, an external electronic control unit, a vehicle control method, and an application, and more particularly, to a vehicle communication system installed in a vehicle and an external electronic control unit capable of performing vehicle control by transmitting, to the vehicle communication system, a vehicle control signal for controlling behavior of the vehicle on the basis of vehicle information received from the vehicle communication system. According to exemplary embodiments, it is possible to easily add or update a vehicle control function, to perform precise vehicle control, and also to perform autonomous traveling control with a user's terminal.

An integrated control apparatus for an autonomous vehicle includes a mobile control device 10, which is a portable device manipulated by a user, configured to perform steering, speed change, acceleration and braking of the vehicle, and a touch-type stationary display device 20 manipulated in a touch manner by the user and configured to perform functions other than the steering, the speed change, the acceleration and the braking of the vehicle when the vehicle is shifted from an autonomous driving mode to a manual driving mode. A steering dial switch and a speed change slide switch of the mobile control device are manipulated in a manner different from that in which an acceleration button switch and a braking button switch of the mobile control device are manipulated.

Systems and methods are provided herein for adaptive user input boundary support for remote vehicle motion commands. The systems and methods described herein may be used to allow more flexibility in continuous inputs provided to trigger commands to a vehicle to perform an autonomous function, such as Remote Park Assist (RePA). The systems and methods may allow RePA to continue even if the continuous input is not provided in the form of a perfect circle or if the continuous input drifts gradually over time.

Examples are disclosed for voice control of vehicle systems. An example system for controlling a vehicle includes a microphone, at least one vehicle component, and an interface system communicatively coupled to the microphone and the at least one vehicle component, the interface system configured to detect, via the microphone, an utterance of a vocal command by an occupant of the vehicle, transmit the utterance to at least one of a virtual personal assistant (VPA) of the vehicle and a VPA of a mobile device positioned within the vehicle, receive control signals from at least one of the VPA of the vehicle and the VPA of the mobile device, the control signals generated according to the vocal command, and transmit the control signals to the at least one vehicle component for controlling the at least one vehicle component.

The present disclosure provides an autonomous vehicle and associated interface system that includes multiple vehicle interface computing devices that provide redundant vehicle commands. As one example, an autonomous vehicle interface system can include a first vehicle interface computing device located within the autonomous vehicle and physically coupled to the autonomous vehicle. The first vehicle interface computing device can provide a first plurality of selectable vehicle commands to a human passenger of the autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle interface system can further include a second vehicle interface computing device that provides a second plurality of selectable vehicle commands to the human passenger. For example, the second vehicle interface computing device can be the passenger's own device (e.g., smartphone). The second plurality of selectable vehicle commands can include at least some of the same vehicle commands as the first plurality of selectable vehicle commands.

A driving support apparatus includes a communication device configured to communicate with a vehicle-mounted device installed in a vehicle that's under automatic driving control; and a processor configured to determine, upon receiving a stop request by a passenger who is riding in the vehicle from a mobile terminal of the passenger or the vehicle-mounted device of the vehicle through the communication device, a stop location in accordance with the stop request; generate a driving route of the vehicle from a present location of the vehicle to the stop location; and calculate a stop time required to stop the vehicle at the stop location, based on the driving route to the stop location, and when the stop time is less than an allocated time for the stop request, send a stop command for moving the vehicle to the stop location to the vehicle-mounted device of the vehicle through the communication device.
