INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR MOTOR VEHICLE

摘要

An information system for a motor vehicle is provided. The information system can include an on-board information system operable to accept input information, conduct a search and provide output information to an individual within the motor vehicle. In addition, an on-board hands free phone system can be included and be operable to communicate with an off-board phone and record and/or stream an utterance communicated by a user of said off-board phone. The on-board hands fee phone system can record/stream the utterance using a recording and/or streaming function, e.g. through the use of a Record and/or Stream button and/or a voice activated Record and/or Stream command. The recorded and/or streamed utterance can be provided to a voice recognition system that can translate the utterance into input information for the on-board information system which can then conduct the search and provide output information for an occupant of the motor vehicle.
