Adaptive interactive voice system
First Claim
1. An apparatus for adaptively interacting with a driver via voice interaction, the apparatus comprising:
- a computational models block configured to;
receive driver related parameters, vehicle related parameters, and vehicle environment parameters from a plurality of sensors and employ modeling software with instructions that are executed on one or more devices to;
generate a driver state model based on the driver related parameters,generate a vehicle state model based on the vehicle related parameter, andgenerate a vehicle environment state model based on the vehicle environment parameters; and
an adaptive interactive voice system configured to;
generate a voice output based on a driver'"'"'s situation and context as indicated on information included within at least one of the driver state model, the vehicle state model, and the vehicle environment state model;
determine, based on the information included within the at least one of the driver state model, the vehicle state model, and the vehicle environment state model, that the driver is engaged in a conversation with a person; and
refrain from outputting the voice output while the driver is engaged in the conversation with the person to avoid interrupting the conversation.

Abstract
In one embodiment, an apparatus for adaptively interacting with a driver via voice interaction is provided. The apparatus includes a computational models block and an adaptive interactive voice system. The computational models block is configured to receive driver related parameters, vehicle related parameters, and vehicle environment parameters from a plurality of sensors. The computational models block is further configured to generate a driver state model based on the driver related parameters and to generate a vehicle state model based on the vehicle related parameter. The computational models block is further configured to generate a vehicle environment state model based on the vehicle environment parameters. The adaptive interactive voice system is configured to generate a voice output based on a driver'"'"'s situation and context as indicated on information included within at least one of the driver state model, the vehicle state model, and the vehicle environment state model.
