Creating a sensory experience in a vehicle
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, by one or more processors, sensed data associated with a scene of an outside environment of a vehicle from at least one of one or more sensors associated with the vehicle, one or more sensors of a second vehicle, a database, or a website in real time;
combining the sensed data, by the one or more processors, to generate device data;
extracting, by the one or more processors, one or more objects or streams of device data to create an in-vehicle sensory experience of the scene of the outside environment of the vehicle, wherein content of the in-vehicle sensory experience comprises at least one of one or more videos, sounds, objects, or surfaces;
modifying, by the one or more processors, the device data to compose the outside environment of the vehicle;
identifying, by the one or more processors, one or more output components associated with the vehicle, wherein the one or more output components comprise at least one of one or more projectors, a climate control system, an audio system, or a dashboard panel;
sending, by the one or more processors, instructions to an output module to display the scene of the outside environment of the vehicle on one or more interior surfaces of the vehicle; and
creating, by the one or more processors, the in-vehicle sensory experience in the vehicle by sending the device data to the one or more output components associated with the vehicle for output to a user of the vehicle.

Abstract
Systems and methods directed to creating a sensory experience in a vehicle are described herein. Data may be received from one or more sources. Device data may be generated based at least in part on the received data. One or more output components associated with the vehicle may be identified. The device data may be transmitted to one or more output components for output to a user of the vehicle.

12. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein instructions, that when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform functions comprising:
-
receiving sensed data associated with a scene of an outside environment of a vehicle from at least one of one or more sensors associated with the vehicle, one or more sensors of a second vehicle, a database, or a website in real time; combining the received data to generate device data; extracting one or more objects or streams of device data to create an in-vehicle sensory experience of the scene of the outside environment of the vehicle, wherein content of the in-vehicle sensory experience comprises at least one of one or more videos, sounds, objects, or surfaces; modifying the device data to compose the outside environment of the vehicle; identifying one or more output components associated with the vehicle, wherein the one or more output components comprise at least one of one or more projectors, a climate control system, an audio system, or a dashboard panel; sending instructions to an output module to display the scene of the outside environment of the vehicle on one or more interior surfaces of the vehicle; and creating the in-vehicle sensory experience in the vehicle by sending the device data to the one or more output components associated with the vehicle for output to a user of the vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)
