Abstract: An automatic crash notification system may include a crash detection system configured to detect a crash of the vehicle, a memory system containing a first prerecorded message that includes one or more words that mean that a remote location has received notice of a crash, a wireless communication system configured to wirelessly transmit a message to and wirelessly receive a message from a remote location, a user communication system configured to deliver words to an occupant of the vehicle, and a processing system. The processing system may be configured to transmit notice of a crash over the wireless communication system to a remote location in response to detection of the crash by the crash detection system, and cause the first prerecorded message to be communicated over the user communication system in response to receipt by the wireless communication system of an acknowledgement from the remote location that the remote location has received notice of the crash.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a user-definable multimedia or digital library are disclosed. Also disclosed are systems and methods for selecting and playing multimedia or digital files from within the library. The selection and playback systems and methods involve a limited number of user activated buttons, which are implemented both for mapping directly to storage locations of particular multimedia or digital files, and for accepting and playing a multimedia or digital file once selected. The limited number of buttons required for the various features of these systems and methods provide vehicle operators, such as automobile drivers, with a safe mechanism and procedure for retrieving and playing customized play lists and particular songs while driving.
