Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the technical field of systems communication systems on board road vehicles.
  • Publication EP 0 829 704 also describes a method of accessing internet information and internet usage from a system of navigation on board a road vehicle.
  • this second publication of the Internet information actually used, through of a navigation system is only based on displays background.
  • the driver, as well as the other passengers may wish to have access to other type of information than offers Internet, for example timetables or special rates.
  • special security constraints apply to the driver who justifies limited access to information, this is not the case for other passengers who may wish to have more access extensive to the information available on the Internet.
  • the present invention aims to eliminate these drawbacks. She solves in particular the problems linked to Internet use in vehicles, by acting on the one hand on the source of information, and on the other goes to the terminal.
  • the service operator with which interacts with the terminal on board the vehicle, processes requests issued by the user on board the vehicle according to parameters linked to the vehicle, in that the terminal adapts in a unit of specific treatment, network access rules based on particular conditions of use, and that the sites information, as well as the transmission media between the operator and the terminal are selected according to said conditions.
  • the network access rules are different depending on whether requests are made by the driver of the vehicle or others occupants.
  • the on-board terminal can directly access suitable sites or usable sites as is, without interacting with through the service operator.
  • At least the driver of the vehicle can establish, only when the vehicle is stopped, certain rules for accessing the network of the on-board terminal.
  • the invention also relates to a device on board a vehicle to establish a dialogue between the vehicle and a network external information, according to certain access rules, by through a service operator, comprising a unit of processing, connected to a mass storage medium, transmitting and receiving information through a module radiotelephone and a broadcast reception / decoding module unidirectional, control means making it possible to formulate requests, means of restitution of information, and a means of location of the vehicle position, characterized in that, when processing of said requests, the service operator takes into account the position of the vehicle provided by the locating means, and that the unit of specific processing selects the information sites transmitted as well as the transmission media used between the service operator and the on-board device.
  • This device can also be connected to portable terminals or portable microcomputers which may include all or part of the processing, mass storage medium or module radiotelephone.
  • control means are a device for voice control, a touchscreen and a buttonhole
  • information restitution means are a restitution module visual information and a sound reproduction module of information.
  • Figure 1 shows a general diagram of the principle of operation of the device according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 describes in more detail the device on board the vehicle.
  • An on-board device 1 on board the vehicle is likely to transmit and receive information with a service operator 2.
  • This service operator 2 has normal access to the Internet network 3. It can be connected to other sources of information 4 outside the Internet 3 for example to sources traffic information.
  • the service operator function can be taken by an Internet service provider.
  • the service operator performs an intermediate processing of the information so that it is usable by the on-board device 1. It can limit both the information to be transmitted, in order to optimize the costs and times of response, and presenting information to users, in particular to the driver for ergonomic reasons.
  • the service operator function can be performed by a mechanism fully automatic adapting web pages to the correct format for reading in the vehicle.
  • the on-board device may have direct access to websites. These are sites capable of adapt to the terminal and on-board use (websites adapted 5) or which can be used as is.
  • the connection with the vehicle can be done by a cellular radiotelephone.
  • the components of the on-board device are shown on Figure 2. Not all of these are necessarily included.
  • the on-board device consists of a processing unit 6 which is linked to the other elements of the system, it manages all of the inputs and outputs, memory and allows the execution of the software of the Navigator. In particular, it is connected to the memory medium 7 which contains, among other things, browser software, Internet pages possibly stored and any other data necessary for the input-output management.
  • the processing unit 6 is also connected to a radiotelephone module 9 who is in charge of transmission over the cellular network, and to a unidirectional broadcast reception / decoding module 10 which may relate to all known and future transmission media.
  • the on-board device 1 includes a location module 11, for example a tracking system absolute radiolocation by satellites or by ground beacons, which can be coupled with self-esteem sensors (gyrometer, odometer) allowing continuously monitor and readjust the location of the vehicle according to known methods.
  • a location module 11 for example a tracking system absolute radiolocation by satellites or by ground beacons, which can be coupled with self-esteem sensors (gyrometer, odometer) allowing continuously monitor and readjust the location of the vehicle according to known methods.
  • Orders issued by the driver or passengers can be transmitted to the processing unit 6 via a voice control device 12, a touchpad 13 or a buttonhole 14.
  • the voice control device 12 allows through microphone or speakers to enter the user's voice commands. he generally includes a means, for example a button, allowing to activate recognition to avoid taking it into account unwanted commands.
  • the touch surface 13 allows the entry of all kinds of commands, especially characters alphanumeric that are recognized by the system, all kinds of symbols which can be associated with commands, supports buttons...
  • the buttonhole is used for all command which is not used in a simple and immediate way by the voice control device 12 or touchscreen 13. It can be basic, repetitive orders such as validation or cancel, volume, contrast, brightness, return to particular Internet pages.
  • the restitution of information to users can be done by means of a visual information rendering module 15 and a module audio information playback 16.
  • the playback module visual information 15 can be, for example, an integrated display in the dashboard.
  • the sound reproduction module information 16 possibly allows speech synthesis at through speakers.
  • the on-board device 1 can also include a portable terminal 17 connected to the processing unit 6.
  • This portable terminal 17 can include all or part of the processing unit 6 and of the memory medium 7, it can also include the radio telephone module 9. In however, it cannot replace the control elements 12, 13 and 14, nor to restitution bodies 15 and 16, unless it has been specially designed for on-board use.
  • a portable microcomputer 18 can play the same role as the portable terminal 17.
  • the device can also include one or more screens deportees 19 intended for passengers.
  • the information transmitted to the on-board device 1 can take takes into account the position of the vehicle or its route. For example, response to information about hotels, service operator 2 can prioritize hotels near the vehicle or its programmed route.
  • the position of the vehicle is taken into account using the module 11.
  • the route can be taken into account by programming prior to taking the vehicle. This programming can be done outside the vehicle either by conventional IT resources, either on the portable terminator 17 or the microcomputer 18 before they are connected to the processing unit 6 of the on-board device 1. This programming can also be done in the stationary vehicle.
  • Service operator 2 can offer a combined use of communication media using the reception / decoding module one-way broadcast 10.
  • he can transmit all the elements of information necessary for the on-board device to stall on a broadcasting for example by using the "RDS" channel (Radio Data System) or other broadcast media and can decode the data broadcast.
  • the broadcast may or may not be in an Internet format.
  • the service operator 2 can also offer a service of advice associated with Internet pages.
  • This advice can take the form free text advising the user in a multiple choice list, or it can be returned to the user by voice in the vehicle. It can also have advertising motivations.
  • Access to information from service operator 2, or directly from the adapted Internet network 5 or from other proposed servers 4 by the on-board device 1 according to the invention is declined according to two modes.
  • the first access mode used in principle by the driver, which is always restrained when the vehicle is in motion, is dedicated to information from the information rendering module visual 15.
  • the second mode of Internet access reserved for others passengers, is carried out via remote screens 14 or 13 microcomputers, is free.
  • the first access, or "restricted access” to the Internet means that the use of the Internet is modified to adapt to security constraints specific to the driver's situation. Such modifications can for example impose an internet usage centered around a configurable home page with a limited number of items.
  • Service operator 2 adapts, filters and personalizes information and performs any other useful service to meet the constraints faced by the driver.
  • composition of the home page can be done either by telephone, either online with IT resources outside the vehicle, either online in the vehicle with controls for deletion and addition of items, either by using a memory in smart card or other format containing the page and inserted into a card reader 8 connected to the device onboard 1.
  • This memory card can optionally also allow the on-board device 1 to be configured so that it is even to communicate with the service operator 2.
  • "Restricted access” to the Internet also consists of simplification maximum of the command of choice in a menu or in a list of elements proposed in Internet pages.
  • the use of same commands must be constant so that the user does not have to memorize as the minimum of elements.
  • reliability recognition voice by voice command device 12 or tracing by touch surface 13.
  • This limitation of errors is essential since it appears that recognition errors generally destabilize users and are a cause accidents.
  • "Restricted access” may also consist of the use of key symbols for moving from one web page to another. These symbols creating links that do not necessarily appear in the proposed Internet page.
  • the invention proposes, when background maps appear on screen, associate voice commands with displayed names. These commands activate a link that can call either a page Internet stored in the vehicle, i.e. on a page available in the server site.
  • the association of keywords and a name is a alternative. An example would be that the name of a locality allows center a map on the same locality.
  • the user can, in a first step, preselect the pages Internet to which he wishes to have access during the second stage, where the vehicle is moving. The user will no longer have to navigate to access the desired pages when the vehicle is in motion.
  • Browser software located on mass storage medium 7 must allow to create a bookmark booklet which will be used during the driving phase.
  • the constitution of this book of bookmarks is identical to that prevailing in standard navigation software. However, the user can decide from the programming if the pages programmed must be updated or not during a later access in the driving phase.
  • Activating a bookmark can be done by usage of a voice command, the title of which can be predefined by the user.
  • Two types of update are possible, an update taking account of the position of the vehicle from the location module 11 of the on-board device 1, and a time update.
  • the device browser on-board 1 stores the page in mass storage medium 7 and thus no external communication is established when recalling the page.
  • the on-board device 1 can determine whether there is a need for update, for example, if this page has just been viewed shortly time before. It should be possible for the user to change it even, along the way, the configuration. This procedure can be do this through existing control means ( voice command 12, touchscreen 13 or button 14).
  • the present invention ensures the security of the driver without denying him access to the Internet. In addition, it facilitates the exploitation of Internet resources, allowing as soon as possible a saving time in accessing information.
