Abstract
A device, system, and method for controlling a vehicle-related display into an exited occupant support mode is provided. A system comprises: a vehicle egress sensor; a first vehicle comprising: a vehicle display; a mobile device comprising: a mobile display, the first vehicle and the mobile device communicatively coupled to each other; and a controller. The controller is configured to: determine, via the vehicle egress sensor, that an occupant has exited the first vehicle, or a second vehicle proximal to the first vehicle; and in response, selectively enable an exited occupant support mode at one or more of the vehicle display and the mobile display.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a vehicle egress sensor;
- a first vehicle comprising:
- a vehicle display;
- and
- a mobile device comprising:
- a mobile display, the first vehicle and the mobile device communicatively coupled to each other;
- and
- at least one controller configured to:
- determine, via the vehicle egress sensor, that an occupant has exited the first vehicle, or a second vehicle proximal to the first vehicle;
- in response, selectively enable an exited occupant support mode at one or more of the vehicle display and the mobile display,
- prior to enabling the exited occupant support mode, selectively launch:
- a first application for presentation at the vehicle display;
- and a second application for presentation at the mobile display;
- and
- after enabling the exited occupant support mode, selectively launch one or more of:
- a third application for presentation at the vehicle display, the third application for supporting the occupant that exited the first vehicle or the second vehicle;
- and
- a fourth application for presentation at the mobile display, the fourth application for supporting the occupant that exited the first vehicle or the second vehicle.
A method comprising:
- determining, at a computing device, via a vehicle egress sensor, that an occupant has exited a first vehicle, or a second vehicle proximal to the first vehicle;
- the first vehicle comprising:
- a vehicle display;
- and a mobile device comprising:
- a mobile display, the first vehicle and the mobile device communicatively coupled to each other;
- in response, selectively enabling, via the computing device, an exited occupant support mode at one or more of the vehicle display and the mobile display,
- prior to enabling the exited occupant support mode, selectively launching:
- a first application for presentation at the vehicle display;
- and a second application for presentation at the mobile display;
- and
- after enabling the exited occupant support mode, selectively launching one or more of:
- a third application for presentation at the vehicle display, the third application for supporting the occupant that exited the first vehicle or the second vehicle;
- and
- a fourth application for presentation at the mobile display, the fourth application for supporting the occupant that exited the first vehicle or the second vehicle.
