Patent Images
1. An in-vehicle apparatus that is used in a vehicle, the in-vehicle apparatus comprising:
- a memory that stores acoustic data relevant to an application executed on a mobile device linking up with the in-vehicle apparatus;
a receiver that receives a direction signal transmitted from the mobile device at a timing specified by the application; and
an output part that outputs a sound based on the acoustic data stored in the memory, via a speaker in response to the direction signal received by the receiver.

Abstract
An in-vehicle apparatus links up with a mobile device that executes an application. A memory of the in-vehicle apparatus stores acoustic data of a sound relevant to the application, and a receiver receives a direction signal transmitted from the mobile device at a timing specified by the application. An output part of the in-vehicle apparatus outputs the sound based on the acoustic data stored in the memory via a speaker in response to the direction signal received by the receiver.

9. A sound output method for outputting a sound in an in-vehicle apparatus used in a vehicle, the sound output method comprising the steps of:
-
(a) receiving a direction signal transmitted from a mobile device at a timing specified by an application executed on the mobile device linking up with the in-vehicle apparatus; and (b) outputting the sound based on acoustic data stored in a memory of the in-vehicle apparatus, via a speaker in response to the direction signal received in the step (a), the memory storing the acoustic data relevant to the application. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
