  • REALTIME INTERACTIONS BETWEEN A USER AND AN IN-VEHICLE ASSISTANT SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20260030824
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a real-time response to a user sitting in a vehicle, such as a driver/passenger. A plurality of images of the user may be captured by a camera disposed in the vehicle. These images may be sent to a control system for processing and outputting a set of user state indicators for characterizing the user's state. Based on the set of user state indicators, an assistant system may programmatically generate one or more animated visual presentations and display the same on a screen of an assistant device as the response to the user's state upon receiving a command sent by the control system. Additionally, the assistant system may also control the physical movement of the assistant device upon receiving a command sent by the control system as the response to the user's head movement.
