Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for master media clock recovery. In various embodiments, recovering a master media clock may comprise receiving clock reference format (CRF) packets carrying timestamps (Ts). Differences of Ts between adjacent CRF packets may be calculated, and an average difference of Ts between adjacent timestamps may be calculated. A recovered frequency of a master clock may be based on the calculated average difference of Ts between adjacent timestamps. The recovered frequency may be used to regulate a timing of, for example, a kernel module and/or a media application.

Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for an example vehicle or driver assistance system for a vehicle. The example vehicle or driver assistance system includes an in-vehicle computing system of a vehicle, the in-vehicle computing system comprising an external device interface communicatively connecting the in-vehicle computing system to a mobile device, an inter-vehicle system communication module communicatively connecting the in-vehicle computing system to one or more vehicle systems of the vehicle, a processor, and a storage device storing instructions executable by the processor to receive a first command from the mobile device via the external device interface, perform a series of actions on the vehicle system until receiving a second command from the mobile device, both of the first command and the second command recognized by the mobile device based on one or more of voice commands issued by a user of the mobile device, and biometric analysis.
