Abstract:
To assist a driver with requesting navigation data via a head unit of a vehicle, partial user input provided to the head unit is received via a short-range communication link and suggested input corresponding to the partial user input is generated. The partial user input includes a sequence of alphanumeric characters. The suggested input includes the sequence of alphanumeric characters and one or more additional characters and corresponds to a set of one or more geographic locations. The suggested input is provided to the head unit via the short-range communication link.
Abstract:
An electronic device includes a requesting application and a hosting application. When the requesting application requests permission from the hosting application to access a category of data, the device identifies the requesting application and the permission request. The device awaits a user input to determine whether the user will permit the requesting application's request to be granted.

Abstract:
To automatically identify an attempt at presenting falsified vehicle identifiers to portable devices, (i) a vehicle identifier reported by a vehicle with which the portable device is establishing a short-range communication link, and (ii) an indication of a current location of the portable device, are received from a portable device at a first time. An indication of a recent location at which the vehicle identifier was reported at a second time is obtained. The current location of the portable device is compared to the recent location of the vehicle, in view of the first time and the second time. In response to determining that the current location is not proximate to the recent reported location of the vehicle, an indication that the reported identifier is likely falsified is generated.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to rendering interactive displays remote from a host application. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to rendering interactive displays, such as interactive geographic map displays and computer game displays, remote from a corresponding host application, such as a web page for a municipality, a university, a computer game, a business, etc., that generates a display which includes the remotely rendered interactive display.

Abstract:
To provide navigation data to a head unit installed in a vehicle, an indication of a current location and a current orientation of the vehicle are received. Map data for generating a digital map of a geographic area including the current location is received from a network device via a first communication link. A digital map image is generated using the map data, such that the digital map is oriented in accordance with the current orientation. The digital map image is provided to the head unit via a second communication link
