  • Publication number: 20230166680
    Abstract: Application and portability of activity profiles and vehicle cabin configuration are facilitated. An example method includes receiving an activity profile and a user setting associated with a user. The activity profile is one of multiple predetermined activity profiles selectable by or associated with the user. The method includes applying the activity profile and the user setting to the vehicle to adjust at least one characteristic of the vehicle's cabin to facilitate a performance of an activity during navigation of the vehicle and/or while the vehicle is stationary. The activity profile and the user setting may be received during, prior to, or after receipt of data indicative of the user's identity. Applying of at least the activity profile to the vehicle may be performed upon successful authentication of the user.

  • Publication number: 20220348215
    Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a method including receiving, by a processing system at an autonomous vehicle including a processor, a personalized driving style profile associated with a first driver according to first driving information, wherein the personalized driving style profile includes key driving style parameter values associated with the first driver, wherein the first driving information comprises monitoring vehicle context and control information captured during a vehicle driving session, and modifying, by the processing system at the autonomous vehicle, a default driving style algorithm according to the personalized driving style profile to mimic at an autonomous vehicle a driving style of the first driver during operation of the autonomous vehicle. Other embodiments are disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20210221387
    Abstract: Application and portability of vehicle functionality profiles are facilitated. For instance, an example method may include receiving data indicative of an identity of a user. The method may include determining, based on the identity, that the user has vehicle profile setting privileges for the vehicle. The method may include receiving a vehicle profile associated with the user to apply to the vehicle to adjust at least one operating parameter of the vehicle. The vehicle profile is one of a plurality of predetermined vehicle profiles selectable by the user. The method may include determining whether the first vehicle profile can be applied to the vehicle; and, in response to determining the first vehicle profile can be applied to the vehicle, applying the first vehicle profile to the vehicle that causes an operation of the vehicle.
