Dynamic output notification management for vehicle occupant
First Claim
1. A communication system for controlling the output of messages to a vehicle occupant, the communication system comprising one or more processors configured to:
- output a first message to the vehicle occupant;
receive a signal from one or more sensors that monitor the vehicle occupant;
analyse the signal from the one or more sensors to determine one or more parameters relating to a response of the vehicle occupant to the first message, wherein the one or more parameters provide identification of a negative response by the vehicle occupant to the first message;
implement a counter to count negative responses;
implement a second counter; and
control subsequent output of the first message in dependence on the counter and the second counter.

Abstract
The present application relates to a communication system for controlling the output of messages to a vehicle occupant. The communication system has a processor configured to output a first message to the vehicle occupant. A signal is received from one or more sensors operative to monitor the vehicle occupant when the first message is output. The signal from said one or more sensors is analysed to determine one or more parameters relating to the response of the vehicle occupant to said first message. The communication system controls the subsequent output of at least said first message in dependence on said one or more determined parameters. The present application also relates to a method and to a vehicle.

11. A vehicle, comprising:
-
one or more sensors; and a communication system coupled to the one or more sensors that controls output of messages to a vehicle occupant, the communication system comprising one or more processors configured to; output a first message to the vehicle occupant; receive a signal from one or more sensors that monitor the vehicle occupant; analyse the signal from the one or more sensors to determine one or more parameters relating to a response of the vehicle occupant to the first message, wherein the one or more parameters provide identification of a negative response by the vehicle occupant to the first message; implement a counter to count negative responses; implement a second counter; and control subsequent output of the first message in dependence on the counter and the second counter.

12. A method of controlling the output of messages to a vehicle occupant, the method comprising:
-
outputting a first message to the vehicle occupant; using one or more sensors to monitor the vehicle occupant; analysing a data signal from the one or more sensors to determine one or more parameters relating to a response of the vehicle occupant to the first message, wherein the one or more parameters provide identification of a negative response by the vehicle occupant to the first message; electronically counting negative responses; electronically implementing a second counter; and controlling the subsequent output of at least the first message in dependence on the count of negative responses and the second counter. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15)
