  • Process and apparatus for the output of music information in a vehicle
    Patent number: 8207837
    Abstract: In the case of a process for the output of music information via an audio device in a vehicle, in which the driver's behavior is determined on the basis of data of one or more driving systems and/or of one or more comfort systems of the vehicle, one piece of music respectively is stored as music information in a table for different behaviors of the driver and/or traffic situations. When the respective driving behavior and/or the respective traffic situation exists, this music information is played back by way of the audio device.

  • Process for the output of information in a vehicle
    Patent number: 7482911
    Abstract: In the case of a process for the output of information in a vehicle, an information source is used for the output of information which is generated as a function of the driver's behavior. The driver's behavior is determined on the basis of data of one or more driving systems and/or of one or more comfort systems of the vehicle. According to the invention, the nature of the information depends on the driver's driving behavior. It describes the next useful behavior step following the momentary behavior.

  • Process for the output of information in a vehicle
    Patent number: 7333007
    Abstract: In the case of a process for the output of information in a vehicle having an information source for the output of information which is generated as a function of the driver's behavior and, in the case of which the driver's behavior is determined by using data of one or more driving systems and/or of one or more comfort systems of the vehicle, the nature of the information depends on the driver's driving behavior. The driving behavior is applied to standards and measured on the basis of the respective circumstances.

  • Method and apparatus for the output of music information to an operator
    Patent number: 7317386
    Abstract: Music information is output to an operator, such as a vehicle operator, through the use of a portable electronic device. The operator's behavior may be determined on the basis of data received from one or more systems of a moving object which is being controlled or otherwise operated by the operator. One or more individual pieces (or playlists) of music may be respectively stored as music information, for example, corresponding to different detected behaviors or moods of the operator and/or the operation conditions.
