Abstract: A portable communication device, for implementation with a host vehicle of transportation having an on-board diagnostics port and a limited-access head-unit display. The device includes an on-board diagnostics connector sized and shaped to connect to the on-board diagnostics port of the host vehicle, a hardware-based processing unit in communication with the on-board diagnostics; and a non-transitory storage device in communication with the processing unit, the storage device. The storage includes a media-options presentation module that, when executed by the processing unit: sends, by way of the on-board diagnostics connector and port, media-options data to the host vehicle for presenting user media options by way of the limited-access head-unit display; and receives user-selection data responding to the user media options. The storage also includes a media streaming module that, when executed obtains streaming media based on the user-selection data, and sends the streaming media to the host vehicle for presentation.

Abstract: Disclosed are algorithms for provisioning content browsing and personalized advertising using hybrid collaborative filters, electronic audiovisual systems implementing such browsing and advertising algorithms, and motor vehicles with onboard audiovisual infotainment systems for provisioning content browsing. A method is disclosed for provisioning content browsing to an occupant of a motor vehicle. The method includes: aggregating vehicle-related data and user-specific data associated with the motor vehicle and the occupant; creating a database of content data received from a distributed computer network; determining, via a Recommendation Engine, multiple recommendations by applying a hybrid collaborative filter to the stored content data based on the user-specific and vehicle-related data; transmitting the recommendations via a Dialogue Engine to the occupant through an electronic audiovisual system of the motor vehicle; and receiving one or more user selections of one or more of the transmitted recommendations from the occupant through the electronic audiovisual system.

Abstract: A system and method for providing navigation routing options to a vehicle driver, including estimated fuel consumption and fuel cost. A server collects data from a large number of road vehicles driving different routes, where the data includes road grade, average speed, stop/start and acceleration/deceleration info and vehicle specifications, and the data is collected via a telematics or other wireless system. The server also receives map data, point of interest data and real-time traffic data from their respective providers. When a driver of a road vehicle requests navigation routing from a start point to a destination, the server provides multiple routing options including not only distance and time for each routing option, but also fuel consumption and cost. The estimated fuel consumption is computed using models based on the crowd-sensed data from the other vehicles driving the routes, where the models include a physics-based model and a machine learning model.

Abstract: A dynamic wireless multi-channel switch including a networking device providing access to communicate messages on at least two frequency bands. A wireless access manager module determines a utilization of each frequency band based on the communicated messages. The wireless access manager module dynamically adjusts a time slot ratio of each frequency band as a function of the utilization of the communicated messages by the networking device.

Abstract: A method of controlling media content between a portable device and a head control unit. A first link is initiated for transmitting control signals between a control client and a control server. A second link is initiated for transmitting media content between a data server and a data client. The first link has a lower traffic volume capacity than the second link and a shorter latency for the control signals than for the media content signal over the second link. The control client generates control signals identifying a user's request and transmits the control signals to the control server using the first link. The control server provides instructions to the data server for executing the user request. The retrieved media data is transmitted from the data server to the data client using the second link. The media data is output to the user over the media output device.
