Problems solved by technology

Although pre-programmed vehicle tasks have been implemented for a long time, vehicles have not yet allowed users to configure their vehicles to perform user-defined tasks (i.e. custom vehicle tasks)
Additionally, there has been no way to provide the user with suggested vehicle tasks

Embodiment Construction

[0010] The systems and methods described below enable a vehicle to receive and present suggested vehicle tasks. In one embodiment, a vehicle user may configure their vehicle to perform one or more vehicle tasks via a user interface, such as a touchscreen infotainment module. The vehicle may then send the user-defined vehicle mission to the remote facility via the communication system described below. A remote facility can be a call center, a data center, or a single computer with network capabilities. At the remote facility, user-defined tasks can be divided into several equivalent classes. Equivalence classes can be analyzed and at least one vehicle task can be selected to be sent to one or more vehicles. The vehicle may then present the received vehicle tasks to a vehicle occupant via a user interface, such as an infotainment unit.

Abstract

A method of providing one or more selectable vehicle tasks to one or more vehicles, comprising the steps of: receiving from each of a plurality of vehicle users at least one user-defined task to be carried out by the user's vehicle, wherein the user-defined task comprises at least one vehicle action and a conditional statement, wherein the conditional statement comprises of one or more vehicle conditions; grouping the received user-defined tasks into equivalency classes, wherein different user-defined tasks that have logically equivalent conditional statements and equivalent vehicle actions are grouped into the same equivalency class; analyzing the equivalency classes; selecting at least one vehicle task based on the analysis in step (c); and sending the selected vehicle task(s) to one or more vehicles for presentation to a user at the vehicle(s).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to vehicle task management, and more particularly to selecting and providing vehicle tasks to be suggested to a vehicle user. Background technique [0002] Today, vehicles are able to monitor many of their systems and components (eg, engine, battery, electronic systems, etc.) in addition to the vehicle's surrounding and environmental conditions. The vehicle has a number of on-board computers operable to analyze the monitored systems, allowing the vehicle to perform various operations in response to the analysis of data from the monitored systems, monitored components, and sensors. For example, a vehicle may automatically turn on its headlights when a low light level is read by a light sensor (eg, at night, the vehicle is in a tunnel, etc.). Additionally, the vehicle may provide a "low fuel" light indicating that the vehicle has sensed a low fuel level. Although pre-programmed vehicle missions have been availabl...
