Patent number: 9680957Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for caching multimedia content. An example in-vehicle computing system that adaptively caches multimedia data, the in-vehicle system including a memory, a position sensor, a receiver, and a processor. The position sensor provides a position signal indicative of a present location of the system. The receiver wirelessly receives multimedia data from a remote multimedia data source. The processor stores the received multimedia data in the memory, transfers multimedia data in the memory to a queue for playback when an amount of multimedia data saved in the memory is at least a first threshold value, and adjusts a size of the memory when a wireless communication channel is not available between the system and a remote multimedia data source.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2015Date of Patent: June 13, 2017Assignee: Harman International Industries, IncorporatedInventors: Carsten Bergmann, Krishnakumar Subramanian, Torrey Atcitty, Rafael Saavedra
