Abstract
A method, apparatus, and computer readable medium that receives a request to output content with a computing apparatus in a vehicle. Privacy information associated with the content is identified. Environmental data associated with the vehicle is determined, the environmental data including at least a number of occupants present in the vehicle. At least a portion of the content is modified and/or suppressed based on the privacy information and the environmental data. The modified content and/or any portion of the content not suppressed is output by the computing apparatus in the vehicle.
Claims26
A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a computing apparatus in a vehicle and from a mobile computing device present in the vehicle, a request to output content to a display of the computing apparatus;
- identifying, by the computing apparatus, privacy information associated with the content;
- determining, by the computing apparatus, environmental data associated with the vehicle, the environmental data comprising at least a number of occupants present in the vehicle;
- modifying, by the computing apparatus, based on the privacy information and the environmental data, the content;
- and
- outputting, by the computing apparatus, the modified content to the display of the computing apparatus.
A computer readable storage device storing instructions comprising machine executable code which when executed by at least one processor, causes the processor to perform steps comprising:
- receiving, from a mobile computing device present in a vehicle, a request to output content to a display;
- identifying privacy information associated with the content;
- determining environmental data associated with the vehicle, the environmental data comprising at least a number of occupants present in the vehicle;
- and
- suppressing, based on the privacy information and the environmental data, at least a portion of the content.
A method, comprising:
- generating, by a mobile computing device present in a vehicle, a request to output content with a display of a computing apparatus in the vehicle;
- identifying, by the mobile computing device, privacy information associated with the content;
- determining, by the mobile computing device, environmental data associated with the vehicle, the environmental data comprising at least a number of occupants present in the vehicle;
- modifying, by the mobile computing device, based on the privacy information and the environmental data, the content;
- and
- sending, with the mobile computing device, the request including the modified content to the computing apparatus in the vehicle.
An mobile computing device, comprising:
- a processor coupled to a memory and configured to execute programmed instructions stored in the memory comprising:
- generating when the mobile computing device is present in a vehicle, a request to output content with a display of a computing apparatus in the vehicle;
- identifying privacy information associated with the content;
- determining environmental data associated with the vehicle, the environmental data comprising at least a number of occupants present in the vehicle;
- suppressing, based on the privacy information and the environmental data, at least a portion of the content;
- and
- sending the request including any portion of the content not suppressed to the computing apparatus in the vehicle.
