Methods and systems for interfacing with a vehicle computing system over multiple data transport channels
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving multiple application requests, from multiple devices using different communication protocols, to connect with a vehicle computing system (VCS);
determining the devices'"'"' communication protocols;
imposing a general transport protocol, transport agnostic of each device'"'"'s native communication protocol, on the multiple devices'"'"' communication protocols, for application request-related communication between the devices and the VCS; and
communicating data payloads based on the general transport protocol, over different channels corresponding to different communication protocols.

Abstract
In one or more embodiments, two or more devices may interface with a computing system over multiple communication channels. A connection may be established between a computing system and two or more devices communicating data using different communication protocols. The communication protocol of the two or more devices may be determined and a general transport protocol for communicating data with the two or more devices based on the respective communication protocols may be imposed on the communication protocol of the two or more devices. Data may be communicated with the two or more devices based on the general transport protocol. An event may be performed at the vehicle computing system or the two or more devices based on the data.
