1. A vehicle system, comprising:
- one or more sensors on the vehicle configured to generate context data;
one or more processors of the vehicle system located in a vehicle configured to receive context data representative of a vehicle'"'"'s environment from the one or more sensors, wherein the one or more processors are further programmed and configured to;
receive the context data from the one or more sensors;
determine an attention demand value based on the context data and a workload value corresponding to the context data; and
output an indicator based upon the determination and suggesting activation or adjustment of a plurality of configurations each corresponding to an individual magnitude of inhibiting communication via a do not disturb communication feature that inhibits communication to a driver.

Abstract
A vehicle computer system includes one or more processors configured to receive context data representative of a vehicle'"'"'s environment from one or more modules. The one or more processors are programmed and configured to receive the context data from one or more modules, determine an attention demand value utilizing the context data and a workload value corresponding to the context data, and output an indicator to activate or adjust a do not disturb feature based on the attention demand value.

14. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
receiving context data from one or more sensors representative of a vehicle'"'"'s environment; determining an attention demand value based on the context data and a workload value corresponding to the context data; outputting an indicator based upon the determination and suggesting activation or adjustment of an option of a do not disturb communication setting, wherein the do not disturb communication setting inhibits communication to a driver from a device and includes two or more options each corresponding to an individual magnitude of inhibiting the communication; receiving a request at the vehicle to output a communication; and controlling the communication based on the do not disturb setting. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)

17. A vehicle system (VS), comprising:
-
a vehicle sensor generating data related to a vehicle'"'"'s environment; and a processor in the VS receiving a signal from the sensor, the processor programmed and configured to; determine an attention demand value utilizing the signal; and output an indicator based on the determination and suggesting user-adjustment of a setting of a communication feature, the setting corresponding to a magnitude of inhibiting communication from a device. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
