Abstract: An approach for recommending an activity during travel. The approach includes receiving a request for a travel destination and a desired arrival time. Furthermore, the approach determines a route to the travel destination and retrieves external data based on the route. Based on the retrieved data and the route, the approach calculates and outputs an initial activity list. And the approach measures vehicle dynamics based on one or more motion sensors and updates and outputs the activity list based on the vehicle dynamics.
