Abstract
An electronic device for a vehicle comprising circuitry configured to obtain information about a planned maneuver of the vehicle; and circuitry configured to determine the position and/or orientation of a sound field based on the information about the planned maneuver of the vehicle.
Claims15
An electronic device for a vehicle comprising:
- circuitry configured to
- obtain information about a planned maneuver of the vehicle,
- determine a future position and/or a future orientation of a sound field based on the information about the planned maneuver of the vehicle, and
- render the sound field at the future position and/or the future orientation prior to or upon initiating the planned maneuver of the vehicle,
- wherein the circuitry is configured to obtain the information about the planned maneuver from an autonomous driving section, the autonomous driving section controlling semi- or full-autonomous driving operations of the vehicle during the obtaining the information about the planned maneuver of the vehicle.
A method comprising:
- obtaining, using a processor, information about a planned maneuver of a vehicle;
- determining, using the processor, a future position and/or a future orientation of a sound field based on information about a planned maneuver of the vehicle;
- and
- rendering, using the processor, the sound field at the future position and/or the future orientation prior to or upon initiating the planned maneuver of the vehicle,
- wherein said obtaining the information about the planned maneuver is performed while the vehicle is being controlled in an autonomous or semi-autonomous driving mode.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon instructions that. when executed by one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform a method comprising:
- obtaining information about a planned maneuver of a vehicle;
- determining a future position and/or a future orientation of a sound field based on information about a planned maneuver of the vehicle;
- and
- rendering the sound field at the future position and/or the future orientation prior to or during performance of the planned maneuver of the vehicle,
- wherein said obtaining the information about the planned maneuver is performed while the vehicle is being controlled in an autonomous or semi-autonomous driving mode.
