VEHICLE MANEUVER APPLICATION INTERFACE
First Claim
1. A non-transitory storage medium storing instructions that when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for handling one or more vehicle maneuver applications (VMA) for use in a motor vehicle, the method comprising the steps of:
- initiating a VMA device;
detecting an installation signal;
receiving a VMA from a VMA source; and
in response to the detected installation signal, installing the received VMA in a memory configured to be coupled to the processor.

Abstract
A vehicle maneuver application (VMA) interface, and a VMA interface system software being executed thereon, may be used for installing, modifying, uninstalling, activating, and/or deactivating one or more VMAs. The VMA interface may include an interface processor and an interface memory. The interface processor may be configured to install the VMA to the VMA device upon receiving an installation signal, update the installed VMA upon receiving an update signal, uninstalling the installed VMA upon receiving an uninstallation signal, activating the installed VMA upon receiving an activation signal, and/or deactivating the installed VMA upon receiving a deactivation signal. The interface memory may be coupled to the interface processor, and it may be configured to store a VMA execution record related to the installed VMA.

15. A non-transitory storage medium storing instructions that when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for activating with one or more vehicle maneuver applications (VMA) for use in a motor vehicle, the method comprising the steps of:
-
detecting a VMA activation signal; in response to the detected VMA activation signal, selecting a VMA to be activated; retrieving vehicle data from a vehicle data logger, the vehicle data containing information related to a condition of the motor vehicle; initializing the selected VMA with the retrieved vehicle data; and interfacing the initialized VMA with a vehicle maneuver controller, the vehicle maneuver controller configured to control a movement of the motor vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17)

18. A vehicle maneuver application (VMA) system for use in a motor vehicle, comprising:
-
a VMA device configured to store and execute a VMA; an interface processor coupled to the VMA device, the interface configured to; install the VMA to the VMA device upon receiving an installation signal, update the installed VMA upon receiving an update signal, and uninstall the installed VMA upon receiving an uninstallation signal; and a vehicle maneuver controller coupled to the interface processor, the vehicle maneuver controller configured to control the movement of the motor vehicle, the vehicle maneuver controller configured to establish a connection with the VMA device when the installed VMA is activated. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
