Abstract
A call transfer method applicable in a call transfer device for use in a vehicle controls a communication device to communicate with a mobile phone of a driver when a vehicle is started. When an incoming call to the driver is detected, it is determined whether the incoming call meets one or more predetermined conditions before a transfer of the call can take place. A pressure detecting device is installed under every seat for passengers and if the presence of at least one passenger is detected, the incoming call to the driver can be handed off to the phone of the passenger. If no passengers are being carried, other options can be employed in relation to the incoming call.
Claims12
A call transfer device applicable in a vehicle comprising:
- at least one processor;
- a communication device coupled to the at least one processor;
- a plurality of pressure detecting devices coupled to the at least one processor;
- and
- a storage device coupled to the at least one processor and storing instructions for execution by the at least one processor to cause the at least one processor to:
- control, when the vehicle is started, the communication device to communicate with a mobile phone of a driver;
- detect whether the mobile phone of the driver receives at least one incoming call;
- determine whether the at least one incoming call meets predetermined conditions;
- control, when the at least one incoming call meets the predetermined conditions, each of the pressure detecting devices to detect whether at least one passenger-user is sitting on a seat other than a driver seat of the vehicle;
- acquire, when the pressure detecting device detects that at least one passenger-user is sitting on the seat, a phone number of the passenger-user;
- and
- control the mobile phone of the driver to transfer the incoming call to the mobile phone of the passenger-user.
