Abstract: A method for providing a description of a functionality of a vehicle to a user of the vehicle. The method includes obtaining first data (D1) indicative of a current user behavior and obtaining second data (D2) indicative of a historic user behavior. The historic user behavior is associated with the user located inside the vehicle while the vehicle is in a non-driving mode. Moreover, the method includes determining a likelihood (LH) that the user will stay inside the vehicle while the vehicle is in the non-driving mode based on the first data (D1) and based on the second data (D2). Furthermore, the method includes triggering a provision of the description of the functionality of the vehicle, if the determined likelihood (LH) exceeds a predefined likelihood threshold. The disclosure also relates to a data processing apparatus, a computer program, a computer-readable storage medium, and a vehicle including the data processing apparatus.

Abstract: A method performed by a vehicle feature evaluation system for enabling evaluation of a simulated vehicle-related feature. The vehicle feature evaluation system determines in relation to a road-driven vehicle, with support from a tracking system, an orientation of a head-mounted display, HMD, adapted to be worn by an occupant on-board the road-driven vehicle or position and gaze direction of the occupant. The vehicle feature evaluation system further determines a simulated vehicle design feature to be evaluated in the road-driven vehicle.

Abstract: A method and system for automatically taking an action upon detecting a fault in a vehicle. An artificial intelligence (AI) system disposed in or in communication with the vehicle assists the operator of the vehicle based on a knowledge of what steps are needed when a given fault is detected in the vehicle. Some such steps may be taken before the AI system interacts with the operator of the vehicle, thereby minimizing operator effort. The AI system identifies the fault; diagnoses a source, nature, and cause of the fault; retrieves and/or generates steps necessary to fix the problem causing the fault; automatically takes any appropriate initial steps to fix the problem causing the fault; alerts the operator of the vehicle to the fault; and communicates to the operator of the vehicle any appropriate remaining steps that the operator of vehicle should take to fix the problem causing the fault.

Abstract: A method for transitioning control of a vehicle from an autonomous driving system to a human driver. The method includes receiving, from the autonomous driving system, a take-over request. Additionally, the method includes determining whether a singular switching means is actuated, and triggering a deactivation of the autonomous driving system under the only condition that the singular switching means is determined to be actuated. Moreover, a data processing apparatus is provided. The data processing apparatus includes means for carrying out the method. Furthermore, a system for transitioning control of a vehicle from an autonomous driving system to a human driver is provided. The system includes a steering wheel, the data processing apparatus and the singular switching means. Additionally, a corresponding computer program and a corresponding non-transitory computer-readable storage medium provided.

Abstract: A method performed by a vehicle feature evaluation system (1) for enabling evaluation of a simulated vehicle-related feature. The vehicle feature evaluation system determines (1001) in relation to a road-driven vehicle (2), with support from a tracking system (5), an orientation of a head-mounted display (4), HMD, adapted to be worn by an occupant (3) on-board the road-driven vehicle.
