First Claim
Patent Images
1. A vehicle, comprising:
- a microprocessor executable media controller executing on an on board computer of the vehicle that receives a media stream from a remote node, the vehicle comprising multiple input/output systems at different spatial locations in the vehicle, the received media stream being for at least first and second input/output systems of the multiple input/output systems and, in response to restrictions due to operator command and/or as a result of a governing law, provide at least a portion of the media stream, in compliance with any restriction, to the first, but not the second, input/output system.

Abstract
The present disclosure describes a microprocessor executable media controller operable to receive a media stream from a remote node, the received media stream being for an occupant associated with an on board vehicle input/output system, identify which on board vehicle input/output systems are restricted due to operator command and/or as a result of a governing law, and provide the media stream, in compliance with any restriction, to a selected input/output system associated with the occupant.

16. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, by a micropressor executing a microprocessor executable media controller on board a vehicle, a signal, wherein the vehicle comprises multiple on board input/output systems at different spatial locations in the vehicle; determining, by the micropressor executing the microprocessor executable media controller, that first and second on board input/output systems of the multiple input/output systems are to receive the payload of the signal; determining, by the micropressor executing the microprocessor executable media controller, a pertinent rule set; determining, by the micropressor executing the microprocessor executable media controller and based on the pertinent rule set, whether all or part of the payload can be presented to each of the first and second on board input/output systems; and when permitted, providing, by the micropressor executing the microprocessor executable media controller, the all or part of the payload to an unrestricted one of the first and second on board input/output systems but not to a restricted one of the first and second on board input/output systems. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)

- 24. A non-transient, tangible computer readable medium comprising a microprocessor executable media controller on board a vehicle, the vehicle having plural input/output systems located at different spatial locations in the vehicle, that, when executed by a processor, (a) receives a signal from a local and/or remote node of a network, (b) determines which of the plural input/output systems are to receive the payload of the signal, (c) determines, based at least in part on a corresponding spatial location of a selected one of the input/output systems, (d) a rule set corresponding to the selected one of the input/output systems, (e) determines, based on the corresponding rule set whether all or part of the payload can be presented to the selected input/output system, (f) when permitted, provides the all or part of the payload to the selected input/output system, and (g) when not permitted, does not provide the all or part of the payload to the selected input/output system.
