AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During navigation, the driver may be distracted by false driving event sounds generated by electronic devices in the vehicle, resulting in unnecessary reactions such as slowing down or pulling over.

Method used

The sound of driving event is identified by a map application running within the vehicle and determine whether these sounds are real or false through machine learning models, thereby blocking false sounds to prevent impact on the driver.

Benefits of technology

It effectively reduces the driver's distraction, improves driving safety, and prevents unnecessary reactions caused by false sounds.

Abstract

In order to identify driving event sounds during navigation, a client device in a vehicle provides a set of navigation instructions for traveling along a route from a starting location to a destination location. During navigation to the destination location, the client device identifies audio including driving event sounds from within the vehicle or from an area surrounding the vehicle. In response to determining that the audio includes driving event sounds, the client device determines whether the driving event sounds are false. In response to determining that the driving event sounds are false, the client device presents a notification indicating that the driving event sounds are false to the driver, or shields the driving event sounds to prevent the driver from hearing the driving event sounds.
