Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling an outgoing call during download of phone book information are provided. The method includes setting, by a controller, a communication channel with a user device when a vehicle is powered on. Additionally, the method includes transmitting, by the controller, a predetermined phone book download request signal to the user device via the set communication channel. The method may further include downloading, by the controller, new phone book information from the user device via the set communication channel. Furthermore, the method includes completing an outgoing call service request from a user using existing phone book information while new phone book information is downloaded.

Abstract: An outgoing call control method for an in-vehicle head unit equipped with a voice recognition function includes connecting Bluetooth communication with a user device when a vehicle is powered on. Whether or not an existing voice recognition database is present is checked. Phone book information is downloaded from the user device through the connected Bluetooth communication. Voice recognition for an outgoing call is performed using the existing voice recognition database during download of the phone book information if the existing voice recognition database is present.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for providing a sound source information management service. The system for providing a sound source information management service manages sound source information transmitted from a driver terminal and extracts the sound source information corresponding to voice input data via voice recognition according to the voice input data transmitted from the driver terminal and provides the extracted sound source information to the driver terminal.

Abstract: An apparatus for processing a receiver-customized message includes a voice recognizer to recognize an instruction to send a message from a driver. An information collector collects information included in the instruction. A message creator creates a message including the information collected by the information collector taking into account the relationship with a receiver. A message receiver receives a message, and a message output outputs an audio guide message for the message received by the message receiver. A controller is configured to analyze the message received by the message receiver, to determine an output level of the message based on a degree of risk, and to control the message output such that it outputs an audio guide message suitable for the determined level.

Abstract: A music selection system and method in a vehicle is provided. The system includes a vehicle traveling information collection unit configured to collect vehicle traveling information, a vehicle exterior environment information collection unit configured to collect vehicle exterior environment information, a vehicle interior environment information collection unit configured to collect vehicle parameter values to enable songs selected by a driver to be matched with the vehicle parameter values and stored in corresponding classification categories, thereby allowing other songs in the same category to be selected and played when the selected song is played.

Abstract: Disclosed is a technique for processing voice commands. In particular, the disclose technique increases a voice recognition rate without performing a process of inputting separate voice commands by updating a voice command table based on interaction with a user by storing similar commands input by the user once those commands have been confirmed by the user as similar command.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an acoustic correction apparatus and method for vehicle audio systems which is capable of providing optimal sound at a reference level to a listener even though the acoustic spatial response characteristics in the room of a vehicle vary due to a change in the material of seat covers or the like. A first acoustic analysis unit obtains target frequency characteristic data at a specific listening location based on generated acoustic signals played from an audio system. A second acoustic analysis unit obtains measured frequency characteristic data at the listening location based on measured acoustic signals collected by the microphone unit. An acoustic correction unit adjusts the equalizer of the audio system based on the target and measured frequency data.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system for assisting fuel-efficient driving, which can advise a driver to perform fuel-efficient driving by displaying a current fuel economy corresponding to a current driving state on a graph such that a driver can compare the current driving state with a target driving state for achieving an optimum fuel economy of the vehicle.
