Control of motor vehicle devices, and the output of information to a driver, based on a stored driver profile and vehicle start times so that driver convenience is improved and traffic information is presented in a timely manner

摘要

The method is for controlling devices and outputting information in a motor vehicle in which a profile of the vehicle driver is created and stored in memory, together with the normal start times of the vehicle. Control of devices and output of information is then carried out based on the stored information so that information, for example traffic jam reports are available when a driver starts his vehicle. Settings for items such as seat, mirror, steering wheel and radio are stored in individual profiles so that these can be recalled at the appropriate times.
