First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for implementing vehicle horn functions, comprising:
- deriving, via a computer processor in a vehicle, a current value associated with a component defined by a policy;
retrieving, from a data file, a volume setting mapped to the current value; and
modifying operation of a horn in the vehicle to produce a volume corresponding to the volume setting when an operator of the vehicle activates the horn.

Abstract
Vehicle horn functions are implemented by deriving a current value associated with a component defined by a policy, retrieving from a data file a volume setting mapped to the current value, and modifying operation of a horn in a vehicle to produce a volume corresponding to the volume setting when an operator of the vehicle activates the horn.
