In response, template-based or natural language generation processing is performed to convert the non-natural language notification content into natural language notification content including updated time information. The natural language notification content is then output to the user. Alternatively, a notification system provides non-natural language announcement content. Sometime thereafter, the template-based or natural language generation processing is performed to convert the non-natural language announcement content into natural language announcement content including updated time information. The natural language announcement content is then proactively output to an intended recipient user or group of users.

Abstract: The methods and systems herein enable relative movement-based seatbelt use detection. Image data of an occupant of a vehicle is received over time. The image data is then input into a machine-learned model or other module that determines whether relative movement between one or more portions of the occupant and corresponding portions of a seatbelt are less than a threshold amount. If the relative movement is less than the threshold amount, an indication of seatbelt misuse (e.g., a fake seatbelt) is output to a vehicle component. By basing the indication of seatbelt misuse on relative movement between the occupant and the seatbelt, seatbelt use detection may be improved.
