Abstract

A vehicle computer implemented method and system for life logging and searching in a vehicle including receiving a request for a vehicle life moment from a vehicle occupant in the vehicle and determining a vehicle life moment from a data store based on the request. The determining includes extracting one of a temporal data component or an activity data component from the request. Further, the method and system include providing the vehicle life moment to the vehicle occupant.

Claims

1. A vehicle computer implemented method for life logging and searching in a vehicle, comprising:

receiving a request from a vehicle occupant in the vehicle;

determining the vehicle life moment from a data store based on the request, wherein the determining includes identifying at least one of a temporal data component, a subject data component or an activity data component from the request; and

providing the vehicle life moment to the vehicle occupant.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the data store includes personal and non-personal data from more than one data source.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein the data store receives and stores the personal and non-personal data when the vehicle is in an active state.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the temporal data component is a time characteristic associated with the vehicle life moment.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the determining includes identifying the temporal data component and the subject data component from the request.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the determining includes identifying the temporal data component, the subject data component and the activity data component.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the activity data component is data describing an interaction associated with the vehicle and the subject data component.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein the activity data component is an action.

9. A vehicle computing system for life logging and searching in a vehicle, comprising:

a data store communicatively coupled to a processor, the processor comprising;

a life logging determination module configured to receive a request from a vehicle occupant in the vehicle and determine a vehicle life moment from a data store based on the request, wherein the determining includes identifying at least one of a temporal data component, a subject data component or an activity data component from the request; and

a life logging input and output module configured to provide the vehicle life moment to the vehicle occupant via an output device.

10. The system of claim 9, wherein the data store includes personal and non-personal data from more than one data source.

11. The system of claim 10, wherein the life logging determination module generates a vehicle life moment record based on the personal and non-personal data when the vehicle is in an active state.

12. The system of claim 11, wherein the life logging determination module stores the vehicle life moment record in the data store.

13. The system of claim 9, wherein the activity data component is data describing an interaction associated with the vehicle and the subject data component.

14. The system of claim 9, wherein the determining includes identifying the temporal data component and the subject data component from the request.

15. The system of claim 9, wherein the determining includes identifying the temporal data component, the subject data component and the activity data component.

16. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a vehicle computer, causes the computer to perform the steps of:

receiving a request from a vehicle occupant in the vehicle;

determining a vehicle life moment from a data store based on the request, wherein the determining includes identifying at least one of a temporal data component, a subject data component or an activity data component from the request; and

providing the vehicle life moment to the vehicle occupant.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16, wherein the data store includes personal and non-personal data from more than one data source.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16, wherein the data store receives and stores personal and non-personal data when the vehicle is in an active state.

19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16, wherein the activity data component is data describing an interaction associated with the vehicle and the subject data component.

20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 19, wherein the determining includes identifying the temporal data component and the subject data component.
