System and method for adaptable mobile interface
First Claim
1. A method for automatically adjusting output content responsive to one or more vehicle conditions, the method comprising:
- receiving at a processor content for output;
determining at the processor if a vehicle emergency condition exists based on information received from a braking system, including information comprising an indication that an anti-braking system is activated;
stopping the output of the received content if it is determined that a vehicle emergency exists;
determining at the processor a vehicle condition, if it is determined that a vehicle emergency condition does not exist;
changing a display format of the content for output and the amount of content for output based on the determined vehicle condition, wherein changing the display format of the content for output and the amount of content for output includes,determining the display format based on the determined vehicle condition; and
outputting at least a portion of the received output content based on the determined display format, wherein the content for output includes map detail information and wherein the amount of content for output displayed decreases as the determined vehicle condition progresses.

Abstract
A system, method, and computer program product for automatically adjusting the output of presentation content based upon vehicle conditions. The method determines whether one of a plurality of vehicle conditions exists, such as conditions related to vehicle speed, rate of change in vehicle speed, rate of change in vehicle direction, vehicle emergencies, cellular phone or headphone activation, radar detector activation, noise level decibels above a certain value, etc. The method determines an output format based on the determined vehicle conditions. The method outputs at least a portion of the presentation content based on the determined output format. The determined output format includes display format information, such as text font or icon size information or map detail. The presentation content can also include audio content.

2. A non-transitory computer program product including executable steps on a storage medium for automatically adjusting output content, wherein execution of the program by a processor of a computer system causes the processor to carry out the executable steps of:
-
receiving content for output; determining if a vehicle emergency condition exists based on information received from a braking system, including information comprising an indication that an anti-braking system is activated; stopping the output of the received content if it is determined that a vehicle emergency exists; determining a vehicle condition, if it is determined that a vehicle emergency condition does not exist; changing a display format of the content for output and the amount of content for output based on the determined vehicle condition, wherein the means for changing the display format for output and the amount of content for output includes, determining the display format based on the determined vehicle condition; and outputting at least a portion of the received output content based on the determined display format, wherein the content for output includes map detail information and wherein the amount of content for output displayed decreases as the determined vehicle condition progresses. - View Dependent Claims (5, 9, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. An apparatus for automatically adjusting output content, the apparatus comprising:
-
a receiver configured to receive content for output; a user interface; and a processor coupled to the receiver and the user interface, the processor comprising; a first component configured to determine if a vehicle emergency condition exists based on information received from a braking system, including information comprising an indication that an anti-braking system is activated, to stop output of the received content if it is determined that a vehicle emergency exists and to determine a vehicle condition, if it is determined that a vehicle emergency condition does not exist; a second component configured to change a display format of the content for output and the amount of content for output based on the determined vehicle condition, by determining the display format based on the determined vehicle condition; and a third component configured to output at least a portion of the received output content to the user interface based on the determined display format, wherein the amount of content for output displayed decreases as the determined vehicle condition progresses.
