Abstract
This disclosure relates to a method, performed in an apparatus 300 for profile control, for switching profile data in one or more vehicle sub-systems 401, 402 of a vehicle 406. Each vehicle sub-system 401, 402 comprises a vehicle sub-system data storage 403, 404. The method comprises: detecting a presence of an occupant in the vehicle 406, identifying the occupant in the vehicle 406, retrieving from a profile data storage 405 the profile data corresponding to the identified occupant, assigning the retrieved profile data to one or more vehicle sub-systems 401, 402; and sending the retrieved profile data for storage in the vehicle sub-system data storage 403, 404 of the assigned one or more vehicle sub-systems 401, 402.
Claims16
A method, performed in an apparatus for profile control, for assigning profile data to one or more vehicle sub-systems of a vehicle, each vehicle sub-system comprising a vehicle sub-system data storage, the method comprising:
- detecting a presence of an occupant in the vehicle;
- identifying the occupant in the vehicle;
- retrieving from a profile data storage profile data corresponding to the identified occupant;
- assigning the retrieved profile data to one or more vehicle sub-systems;
- sending the retrieved profile data for storage in the vehicle sub-system data storage of the one or more assigned vehicle sub-systems;
- and
- controlling the one or more vehicle sub-systems according to the stored profile data.
An apparatus for profile control of profile data in one or more vehicle sub-systems of a vehicle, each vehicle sub-system comprising a vehicle sub-system data storage, the apparatus comprising:
- a sensor configured to detect a presence of an occupant in the vehicle;
- a controller configured to identify the occupant in the vehicle, and to assign a profile data to one or more vehicle sub-systems, and to control the one or more vehicle sub-systems according to the profile data;
- and
- an interface configured to:
- retrieve from a profile data storage the profile data corresponding to the identified occupant;
- and
- store the retrieved profile data in the vehicle sub-system data storage of the one or more assigned vehicle sub-system.
A vehicle comprising an apparatus for profile control of profile data in one or more vehicle sub-systems of a vehicle, each vehicle sub-system comprising a vehicle sub-system data storage, the apparatus comprising:
- a sensor configured to detect a presence of an occupant in the vehicle;
- a controller configured to identify the occupant in the vehicle, and to assign a profile data to one or more vehicle sub-systems, and to control the one or more vehicle sub-systems according to the profile data;
- and
- an interface configured to:
- retrieve from a profile data storage the profile data corresponding to the identified occupant;
- and
- store the retrieved profile data in the vehicle sub-system data storage of the one or more assigned vehicle sub-system.
