Connected vehicle communication with processing alerts related to connected objects and cloud systems
First Claim
1. A method for processing communication between a vehicle and a connected object, comprising,processing geo-location for the vehicle using on-board electronics of the vehicle and data obtained from a global positioning system;
- determining a heading direction of the vehicle based on changes in the geo-locations of the vehicle;
receiving state information of one or more of connected objects that are located within an area of influence associated with a current geo-location of the vehicle, the connected objects are independent of the vehicle and the state information from the one or more connected objects is processed for the current geo-location of the vehicle and based on the area of influence of the vehicle, wherein as the current geo-location of the vehicle changes the one or more connected objects identified as relevant to the area of influence changes, the state information of the one or more connected objects is received by the on-board electronics of the vehicle directly from the connected objects or from a server that captures state information from one or more connected objects, wherein state information of connected objects determined to be outside of the area of influence is not processed; and
generating an alert for the vehicle, the alert includes control data usable by the on-board electronics of the vehicle to cause a notification to be rendered for an occupant of the vehicle, the notification includes information related to a current or change in state of one or more connected objects in the area of influence of the vehicle.

Abstract
Methods and systems are provided. One method includes processing communication between a vehicle and one or more connected object. Included is processing geo-location for the vehicle using on-board electronics of the vehicle and data obtained from a global positioning system and determining a heading direction of the vehicle based on changes in the geo-locations of the vehicle. The method receives state information of one or more of connected objects that are located within an area of influence associated with a current geo-location of the vehicle. The connected objects are independent of the vehicle and the state information from the one or more connected objects is processed for the current geo-location of the vehicle and based on the area of influence of the vehicle. As the current geo-location of the vehicle changes, the one or more connected objects identified as relevant to the area of influence changes, and the state information of the one or more connected objects is received by the on-board electronics of the vehicle directly from the connected objects or from a server that captures state information from one or more connected objects. The state information of connected objects determined to be outside of the area of influence is not processed. The method includes generating an alert for the vehicle. The alert includes control data usable by the on-board electronics of the vehicle to cause a notification to be rendered for an occupant of the vehicle. The notification includes information related to a current or change in state of one or more connected objects in the area of influence of the vehicle.
