  • Patent number: 11417367
    Abstract: Systems and methods provide techniques for reviewing content, such as reviewing video on a mobile device. A computing device with a touch screen interface, e.g., a tablet computer, executes a reviewing tool, e.g., a computer program, that causes the device to display video content and information about the video content. The tool provides an interface for selecting video, images, and information, for review and for annotation. The tool uses remote and/or local data to display video, images, and information for review.

  • Patent number: 11417163
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for controlling vehicle systems. The method may be performed by a mobile device and a vehicle, and may include capturing motion data generated by one or more sensors of the mobile device. The method may also include generating a motion signature, indicative of a motion of the mobile device, from the captured motion data. Furthermore, when the generated motion signature matches a predefined motion signature stored in a memory of the mobile device, the method may include transmitting a motion based gesture command associated with the predefined motion signature to a vehicle. Additionally, the method may include operating one or more of the vehicle systems in response to a processor of the vehicle executing the received motion based gesture command.

  • Publication number: 20200216025
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for providing access to a system using a wireless access device. The method can include activating a plurality of beacon transceivers of the vehicle. The method may also include determining, based at least in part on at least one beacon message received by the beacon transceivers, the wireless access device, or a combination thereof, when a position of the wireless access device relative to the vehicle satisfies an access threshold. The method may also include, in response to determining that the access threshold has been satisfied, configuring one or more systems of the vehicle based on the position of the wireless access device relative to the vehicle.
