System and method for dynamic in-vehicle virtual reality

A computing system for rendering views to an output device in a vehicle, comprising:

• a processor operatively connected for computer communication to at least one vehicle system of the vehicle and the output device, the processor including:
• a virtual reality data module receiving vehicle data associated with one or more vehicle systems from a portable device and identifying vehicle occupant action data based on the vehicle data associated with a vehicle occupant of the vehicle;
• a dynamic virtual reality module generates a view based on the vehicle data and a model, the model including one or more components that define the view and the dynamic virtual reality module modifies at least one of the one or more components of the model according to the vehicle occupant action data;
• and
• a rendering module renders the view to the output device by controlling the output device to update display of the view according to the modified one more components of the model.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that when executed by a processor perform a method for rendering views to an output device in a vehicle, comprising:

• receiving vehicle data from a portable device;
• determining vehicle occupant action data based on the vehicle data associated with a vehicle occupant of the vehicle;
• generating a view based on the vehicle data and a model, the model including one or more components that define the view, wherein generating the view includes modifying one or more components of the model according to the vehicle occupant action data;
• and
• rendering the view to the output device by controlling the output device to update display of the view according to the modified one more components of the model.
