Abstract: In response to detecting a trigger event a computer in a vehicle such as a gateway device can retrieve a static identifier of an electronic control unit (ECU) via a vehicle network. The vehicle in the computer can then receive, in response to a request to a server computer, a salt string, and generate a temporary ECU identifier for the ECU based on the salt string and the static identifier. The temporary ECU identifier can then be deployed to the vehicle network.

Abstract: Performing vehicle analytics using connected data captured from potential vehicle customers is provided. Connected data indicative of usage by a customer of one or more vehicles is received in real-time. The connected data is analyzed to determine a per-customer recommendation based on the usage. The per-customer recommendation is sent to a dealership in real-time to advise the dealership.

Abstract: A computer includes a processor and a memory, and the memory stores instructions executable by the processor to provide an identification of an occupant of a vehicle to a plurality of virtual-meeting platforms, receive data indicating a plurality of virtual meetings at respective start times for the occupant from the virtual-meeting platforms, connect a user interface of the vehicle to a first one of the virtual meetings through a first virtual-meeting platform of the virtual meeting platforms at the respective start time, and connect the user interface to a second one of the virtual meetings through a second virtual-meeting platform of the virtual meeting platforms at the respective start time.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a controller, programmed to responsive to identifying a first user via a mobile device, load a first non-person entity associated with the first user from the mobile device to configure vehicle settings, the first non-person entity including a driver setting, a first entertainment setting and a second entertainment setting; and responsive to identifying a second user entering the vehicle, switch from the first entertainment setting to a second entertainment setting.

Abstract: A method for authenticating payload delivery devices. The payload delivery devices can include autonomous robotic delivery vehicles or other devices. The disclosed method causes delivery devices to authenticate each other during the delivery cycle via the cloud by determining, via a processor, payload delivery mission metadata that can include a mission identification (ID), payload information, and a mission type associated with payload delivery. The method further includes generating, based on the payload delivery mission metadata, a multi-modal authentication message that, when received by a first delivery device, configures the first delivery device to authenticate a second delivery device using a token generated onboard the delivery device or received from the cloud server, receive and authenticate delivery payload associated with the payload delivery mission, and complete a delivery operation through cloud server-coordinated or independent device authentication.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a controller, programmed to responsive to identifying a first user via a mobile device, load a first non-person entity associated with the first user from the mobile device to configure vehicle settings, the first non-person entity including a driver setting, a first entertainment setting and a second entertainment setting; and responsive to identifying a second user entering the vehicle, switch from the first entertainment setting to a second entertainment setting.

Abstract: A system includes an audio input, a transceiver, and a processor. The processor is programmed to receive a voice query from a vehicle occupant per the audio input, evaluate the query locally to provide initial search results, in parallel, utilize the transceiver to concurrently evaluate the query using one or more remote digital assistants to receive historical and new search results, and merge the local results and the remote results to provide additional lazy load search results.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a transceiver configured to communicate with a server; and a controller programmed to responsive to detecting a first trip pattern of the vehicle, create a first geofence associated with the first trip pattern, wherein the first geofence includes a geographic character and a temporal character, send the first geofence to the server, and responsive to receiving, from the server, a first message indicative of the first geofence being in common with a second geofence associated with an entity, establish a connection with the entity via the transceiver.

Abstract: A system including one or more servers, programmed to responsive to receiving a token request from a vehicle to access content stored in a content cloud, validate the token request against pre-defined policies; responsive to a successful policy validation, verify token generating responsibility based on a validation result and pre-defined rules; and responsive to verifying the system has the token generating responsibility, generate a token for the token request.

Abstract: This disclosure is generally directed to systems and methods for generating a customized display in a vehicle. The customized display may be generated on the basis of various factors such as a reason for executing a trip, a preferred travel model, and/or operating parameters of the vehicle. A few exemplary reasons for executing a trip can include taking a vacation, delivering a package, dropping off a passenger, dining out, going to work, a fuel fill up, and/or for charging a battery. A computer may utilize such reasons to identify objects of interest in a geographical area surrounding the vehicle when the vehicle is executing the trip and generate a customized display that includes these objects. For example, when the reason for executing the trip is a vacation, the objects in the customized display may include a tourist attraction, a landmark, a fueling station, an electric charging station, and/or a restaurant.

Abstract: A system includes a processor that receives an authentication request, at a vehicle, from an application executing on a device in communication with the vehicle, including a security designation. The receiving vehicle then determines if the vehicle has access to a primary security authentication system corresponding to the security designation. The vehicle also, responsive to the vehicle having access, utilizes the primary authentication system to authenticate a user via the determined primary security authentication system and provide user credentials, obtained based on successful use of the primary authentication system, to the device.
