CONTROLLING IN-VEHICLE COMPUTING SYSTEM BASED ON CONTEXTUAL DATA
First Claim
1. An in-vehicle computing system for a vehicle, comprising:
- a processor;
an external device interface communicatively coupleable to an extra-vehicle server; and
a storage device storing instructions executable by the processor to;
receive information from a navigation subsystem and one or more sensors of the vehicle, the information including user information identifying one or more occupants of the vehicle with one or more accounts of a social media network;
send the received information to the server;
receive instructions from the server, the instructions identifying an action to be performed based on the received information; and
transmit control instructions to one or more vehicle systems based on the identified action.

Abstract
Embodiments are disclosed for systems and methods for controlling operation of an in-vehicle computing system. In some embodiments, an in-vehicle computing system includes a processor, an external device interface communicatively coupleable to an extra-vehicle server, and a storage device storing instructions executable by the processor to receive information from a navigation subsystem and one or more sensors of the vehicle. The information may include user information identifying one or more occupants of the vehicle with one or more accounts of a social media network. The instructions may also be executable to send the received information to the server, receive instructions from the server, and transmit control instructions to one or more vehicle systems based on the identified action. The instructions may identify an action to be performed based on the received information.

7. A system for controlling an output of an in-vehicle computing system of a vehicle, the system comprising:
-
a data integration subsystem that receives data from the in-vehicle computing system and a content aggregator; an analytics engine that analyzes the received data; a data persistence subsystem that manages analytics results from the analytics engine; a rules engine that invokes rules responsive to an occurrence of one or more events based on analysis of the received data by the analytics engine, the rules defining an instruction to control the output of the in-vehicle computing system; and a service application programming interface (API) that transmits, to the in-vehicle computing system, an indication of an action to be performed by the in-vehicle computing system. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A method for controlling an output of an in-vehicle computing system of a vehicle, the method comprising:
-
receiving, at a server, navigational information from a navigation system of the vehicle; receiving, at the server, aggregated information from one or more user accounts associated with a driver of the vehicle; determining a cognitive load of the driver of the vehicle based on the navigational information and the aggregated information; responsive to determining that the cognitive load of the driver is above a threshold, transmitting an instruction to the in-vehicle computing system to prevent an increase in cognitive load and/or decrease a cognitive load on the driver in accordance with a rule set. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
