  • Publication number: 20240198938
    Abstract: Methods, computing systems, and technology for automated vehicle action generation are presented. For example, a computing system may generate content for presentation to a user via a user interface of a display device. The content may include user interface elements for inputting one or more triggering conditions associated with a vehicle function of a vehicle and one or more settings of the vehicle function. The computing system may receive, via the user interface, data indicative of user input specifying the triggering conditions and data indicative of user input specifying the settings of the vehicle function. The computing system may determine an automated vehicle action that defines a relationship between the triggering conditions and the settings of the vehicle function. The computing system may output command instructions for the vehicle to implement the automated vehicle action for automatically controlling the vehicle function based on whether the vehicle detects the triggering conditions.
