Abstract: A method and system for managing settings on a single vehicle/implement system and across a fleet of vehicle/implement systems. Each vehicle/implement system includes a plurality of Embedded Systems having configurable settings, a Precision Agriculture Server having configurable settings, and a Telematics Server having configurable settings. All of the servers are connected by a plurality of vehicle data busses. The Telematics Server is connected to Cloud-Based Servers via the Internet. Vehicle/implement system settings are managed by the Precision Ag Server and shared with other vehicle/implement systems via the Cloud-based Server. Flexibility for different vehicle/implement models and options is provided by a distributed system using Client Software in the Precision Ag Server or Client Software in the Embedded Systems and by a settings identification and versioning schema.

Abstract: At least one example embodiment discloses a method for generating a touch screen display. The method includes establishing a run screen on the touch screen display, the run screen associated with a function of a work vehicle, configuring the run screen with a retractable toolbar, the retractable toolbar responsive to an action of a user of the touch screen display and deployable over a first portion of the run screen upon the action of the user and otherwise hiding to display a second portion of the run screen, the second portion of the run screen being at least a majority portion of the run screen and defining one or more transient user-definable buttons on the retractable toolbar associated with at least one of the function and the run screen.

Abstract: At least one example embodiment discloses a method for generating a touch screen display. The method includes establishing a first run screen associated with a first function of a work vehicle and establishing a second run screen associated with a second function of the work vehicle distinct from the first function and defining an order of appearance of the first run screen and the second run screen within a set of run screens that allows a user to select a run screen in the set of run screens that are displayable in accordance with the defined order.

Abstract: An active feedback interface for a touch screen display that includes display of visual cues to indicate when and where the display was touched by a user. The visual cues may change over a period of time in accordance with a particular active or inactive area of the touch screen contacted by a user finger.

Abstract: Based on information on a biometric print of a user of a mobile device and user associated identification, the user is biometrically authenticated over a network for access to an online service. When a request from the user for access to an online service is received, a server checks the identification to determine if the user or mobile device is registered for a biometric based verification service. If registered, a sample biometric print is obtained from the user and compared to a stored template biometric print of the authorized user associated with the mobile device to determine if there is a match. When there is a match, the user is biometrically authenticated and is granted access to the online service.
