Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- receiving at an intermediary device a cable connection from a vehicle infotainment system;
sending by the intermediary device at least one first instruction to the vehicle infotainment system that changes a configuration of the vehicle infotainment system from a host mode to an accessory mode;
receiving at the intermediary device a connection from a remote device separate from the vehicle infotainment system;
detecting by the intermediary device a plurality of packets based on communications between the vehicle infotainment system and the remote device;
storing by the intermediary device a record based on the plurality of packets;
receiving at the intermediary device a second instruction from the remote device for execution on the infotainment system;
preventing by the intermediary device delivery of the second instruction to the infotainment system; and
providing by the intermediary device to the remote device, a confirmation of execution of the second instruction on the infotainment system.

Abstract
An intermediary device may be utilized to form a communication bridge between a vehicle infotainment system and a remote device. The computing device forming the bridge may send and receive the data sent between the motor vehicle infotainment system and the remote device. The intermediary device may mimic the infotainment system or the remote device and/or an instruction sent by the infotainment system and/or the remote device.
