Embodiment Construction

[0019] figure 1 is an illustration of a system 100 and uses of the system 100 for voice-activated actuation of an automotive feature, such as a trunk opener, according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The system 100 can be used for voice-activated automation of other parts of the car. System 100 may include vehicle 102 , feature 104 , transmitter 106 , and control module 110 .

[0020] System 100 may be implemented on or for a vehicle 102 . Vehicle 102 may include an automobile, motorcycle, recreational vehicle, or other vehicle. The system 100 may control the actuation of the features 104 of the vehicle 102 under certain combinations of conditions. Features 104 may include, for example, a trunk lid, a window, a sunroof, lights, an ignition switch, a side door, a liftgate, a sliding door, or other features of a vehicle. Actuation of the feature 104 may include, for example, opening or closing a trunk lid, door, or window, or starting or stopping the ignition of the vehi...

Abstract

A microcontroller (206) includes a processor and instructions stored in a machine-readable medium. The instructions, when loaded and executed by the processor, cause the processor to recognize an access by a transmitter to a vehicle (102), recognize a voice command (99) to open a portion of the vehicle (102), and, based on a combination of the recognition of the voice command (99) and the recognition of the access by the transmitter, issue a signal to actuate a feature of the vehicle (102) identified in the voice command.

Description

[0001] priority [0002] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 542,091, filed August 7, 2017, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to automobiles, vehicles and peripherals, and more particularly to automotive voice-activated actuation of vehicle features such as the trunk. Background technique [0004] The evolution of alternatives to electrical / electronic architectures continues as automotive system suppliers compete to meet the ever-changing stringent requirements of automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Such architectures can have multiple components. [0005] Some of these parts are manufactured according to various industry standards. For example, the Automotive Electronics Council (AEC) has promulgated several different standards, such as AEC-Q100. Other standards include International Organization for Standardizatio...
