Abstract: A wireless interactive voice-actuated mobile information system permits a motorist to obtain information and assistance, hands free, using voice technology and the Internet. An on-board telematics unit in a motor vehicle connects using wireless (cellular) communications with the Internet while the vehicle is underway. A G.P.S. locating circuit is coupled to the on-board telematics unit. An interactive voice net off board station is connected via Internet to communicate wirelessly with the on-board unit. Commercial subscribers including, restaurants, hotels, etc., maintain a connection to the central station. The on-board computer communicates the geographical position and direction of travel to central station to obtain restaurant or hotel information, which the telematics unit communicates using voice technology with the person in the vehicle. The person can make and confirm lodging and communicate payment data to a selected restaurant or hotel. The system operates unattended at the subscriber end.
