    DESCRIPTION

    Method of generating a text message for an electronic device in vehicle
     5

    OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

    The object of the present patent application is a method of generating a text message for an electronic device in vehicle according to claim 1, which incorporates 10 notable innovations and advantages.


    BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
     fifteen
    Various methods of generating a text message for an electronic device in vehicle are currently known.

    To avoid the danger of distraction when sending text messages, Whatsapps, etc. During driving, there are alternatives such as voice dictation. These systems are very slow, requiring several steps and confirmation. These systems do not recognize what is dictated 100%, not being compatible with music or conversations in parallel. In addition, the required software is quite complicated.

    On the other hand, it is known from the state of the art, as reflected in document 25 EP2753052, a message transfer system, including a display device, a mobile device, and a method of message transfer thereof.

    Said display device comprises a memory that stores a plurality of 30 text templates, which are filled with information collected either from the mobile device, or from the vehicle control unit, a detector that captures different vehicle status information, a screen that shows a message transfer interface and a controller that automatically generates a message through the combination of at least one of the text templates and at least one of the 35 different status information. The user selects the type of message to be transferred in the transfer interface and a communicator transfers the message to an external device.

    The generation of messages that this patent describes is based on notifying location 5 and / or traffic status and / or estimated arrival time and / or meteorological information and / or information on the content being reproduced on the screen.

    Thus, said patent discloses a device consisting of a screen, a memory that stores information, and a controller configured to generate automatic messages 10 when the user decides to send a message in response to an incoming message. When a user receives a message, said message, as well as the information related to the contact that sent the message are represented on the screen, and the user can select between two options, contact the sender in question with a call or With another message. If the user chooses the option to respond with a message, a message generation screen opens, in which a series of icons have a template associated with a specific text. This text has associated information which, in order to correctly complete the message, it is necessary that they have been previously collected, either from the vehicle, or from the mobile device itself, by the controlling unit. twenty

    However, no other option is contemplated than to respond with another message to an incoming message, so it does not solve the need to send a message to another recipient that is not necessarily the one that sent the incoming message in question, as well as nor is the generation of a message that does not have to do with a collected information, but a communication of the user with another person.

    It is also known from the state of the art, as reflected in document US7574661, a method of predicting the use of an application in a mobile terminal that includes: an input device that selects and executes any of two or more applications; a 30 GPS reception unit; a behavior model extraction unit that creates an application prediction rule executed on the input device, in association with a place of use detected by the GPS reception unit; and an information display control unit that specifies, based on the usage prediction rule. The application corresponds to the current location detected by the GPS reception unit 35, and causes the specified application to be displayed as a prediction result on a screen.

    Thus, the patent discloses the use of historical data to predict which message to send, depending on the place and the accumulated history. To create such a message, it is based on a text template which may have been obtained either by manual user input or due to the repetition of terms in messages from the user's history. The connection of a mobile terminal with a vehicle is also disclosed.

    It is also known from the state of the art, as reflected in document US9191483, 10 a method of automatic message generation based on a particular state of the mobile terminal. Specifically, the method may include storing a plurality of text messages in said mobile terminal, determining a state of the mobile terminal; and the selection and display of one of the plurality of text messages stored according to the determined state of the mobile terminal. fifteen

    However, the objective that the aforementioned document pursues is not related to avoiding distractions in driving, but aimed at a more efficient use of the messaging service of a telephone. This is based on a method that includes a memory that stores a series of message text templates, whose information is completed by other information obtained from the state of the mobile. Mobile status is understood as information processed by means of a logic of the events scheduled in the calendar, and by the GPS location of the device.

    Thus, it is seen that there is still a need to have a method of generating a text message for an electronic device in a vehicle, such that the configuration and the sending of text messages to a user is expedited, ahead of the driver needs through a reliable predictive technique, so that the driver should not read or type while driving.

    DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

    The present invention consists in the generation of a text message to be sent based on the prediction of aspects of said text message, so that a safe driving of a motor vehicle is favored. In this way it is possible to minimize the attention of the driver on a screen or device of graphic representation of the interior of the vehicle, by predicting aspects of the message and a representation by icons and symbols, which allow a comfortable and intuitive handling of the method of generating a text message of the present invention. 5

    Currently, in the case of the WhatsApp messaging application, in which when you click on an icon or symbol (for example the face of a dog), the recipient of that message receives this same icon. However, the idea that is proposed is that the user receive a text message associated with the icon (for example "remember to feed the dog 10") instead of the graphic icon itself. This presentation facilitates the transmission of short messages during the march: Clicking on these icons is a much simpler action than writing text, reducing the risk involved, by implying a loss of attention to driving.
     fifteen
    More particularly, there are three types of messages that the user can send:
    - fully predefined text messages. For example, "I'm coming,"
    - predefined but customized messages, in which the user adds some parameter. For example, "I will arrive in 5 min", in which the user must only select the number "5", and 20
    - messages taking vehicle data. For example the time left until the destination. This value will be included in the message without the user having to enter it (for example “I will arrive in 23 min”).

    The parameters that the system takes into account when parameterizing a possible scenario in which the driver is located are, for example, and not limited to: meteorology, time of day, day of the week, traffic status, point of origin, destination, and other variables such as calendar events, driver status ...

    It is worth mentioning, on the other hand, the added benefits of the invention with respect to the close antecedent EP2753052, according to which the method of generating a text message for an electronic device in vehicle, firstly makes an additional offer to propose the persons or recipients to whom to send the message. Secondly, the icons do not have to be directly related to information about the vehicle or its surroundings. They can also contain other kinds of static information, so that the user has a much wider range of options to choose from, giving him virtually the same freedom as if he had free access to writing. Thirdly, the message to be sent, by means of proposed icons or symbols, also varies depending on the chosen recipient, so that the level of prediction is more accurate and accurate, since it is not only based on predicting recipients and messages but on 5 have an intelligence capable of associating probabilistically the most probable messages for each recipient.

    In more detail, the method of generating a text message for an electronic device in vehicle comprises the following steps:
    i) collect data from at least one parameter of the vehicle and / or its context,
    ii) determine from among a plurality of contacts stored in an agenda of the electronic device at least one probable recipient of the at least one text message, based on information accumulated in a database of the electronic device, and the data collected from the at least one parameter of the vehicle and / or its context,
    iii) determine from among a plurality of text templates stored in a memory of the electronic device at least one probable text template for the at least one text message based on the information accumulated in the database of the electronic device, of the data collected from at least one parameter of the vehicle and / or its context, and of the determined probable recipient,
    iv) show on a graphic display device a plurality of representative icons of at least one determined probable recipient, and,
    v) show at least one determined probable text template on a graphic display device. 25

    Thus, when the user decides to send a text message and opens the application for this purpose, the system is able to automatically predict who the recipient and / or the recipients are likely to send the message to, and, additionally, what types of message to send. "Probably" in the context of this patent, it is synonymous to learn from a historical record, and analyze the message sending habits of each user by associating them with the environments and / or contexts at the time of said messages. . In this way, the system has a memory in which it stores the messages that the user has selected and sent and to whom he has sent them in the past, for a given scenario. For example, if today is Tuesday at 5:30 p.m., it is raining and it is a work-out situation, the system will search in the history what has been repeated most times in these conditions, both message and recipient.

    Or put another way, once the system collects and processes the initial information, it is able to compare with other text message submissions of the past, and see to which recipients text messages have been sent in scenarios similar to this one, and what information has been sent to them. In this way, the system, first, proposes the recipients by showing them probabilistically from more to less, so that it is comfortable, intuitive and substantially devoid of distractions. And depending on the selected recipient, the system proposes one or another text template associated with the text messages sent to the recipient in question, in similar situations of the past, in this way the system is able to offer the user a tight prediction and certain that it will avoid having to use other methods or routes that can lead to dangerous distractions at the wheel.

    The objective pursued at all times is to prevent the user from diverting attention 15 from driving, suggesting and proposing in the most refined way possible both the people and the content of the text messages that are most likely to be sent. In this way, the risk of accidents is minimized.

    Other added advantages of the invention are that the system works much faster than the systems that rely on voice recognition, since there is no need for the time required for said procedure. Nor is it necessary that the client turn off the music or that the rest of the cabin is silent, not causing problems due to erroneous acknowledgments of "what is said", so this invention is compatible with the rest of activities that take place in the vehicle and its use does not interrupt or minimize such other activities.

    In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the step of displaying in the graphic representation device the at least one probable text template comprises a representation of the at least one probable text template by means of at least one symbol. 30

    Mention at this point that a possible alternative would be for the user to receive a series of proposals in the form of text, choosing the one he wishes to send. However, working with symbols or icons is faster and more intuitive, and reduces distraction.
     35
    Thus, the first step is to determine who, and depending on the recipient, the content is searched and the most used symbols are proposed for that scenario and for that person. Therefore, the user must only click on the symbols or icons proposed by the system, thus facilitating the operation during the march. This operation by clicking on symbols or icons, can also be extended to the selection of options. 5

    In order for the user to be able to identify quickly and intuitively, that is, without distractions, what text message he wants to send, each symbol is associated with a text template. This text template may or may not be filled in with other information. 10

    Thus, in a similar way each probable recipient is represented in the graphic representation device by an icon.

    Advantageously, the step of displaying the plurality of icons 15 in the graphic representation device comprises decreasing ordering of the plurality of icons according to a probability dependent on the accumulated information and the data collected.

    That is, the present invention is capable of obtaining the prediction of the recipient and the prediction of the text message linked to the choice of the recipient, but also offers the ability to show the graphic representation of the most likely symbols once a recipient has been selected. from the selection of the representative icon that the user chooses.

    Thus, preferably, and not limitingly, at the top of the screen, the recipients to whom the text message is sent are displayed sorted by historical probability. These recipients are represented by icons. If the person to whom we want to send the text message does not appear in this first visualization, it is not a problem, as it is possible to continue advancing in the library of recipients, pressing, for example, an arrow for this purpose, such that they will continue to appear all recipients that the user has stored as contacts in his address book. Consequently the probabilities decrease, since historically they are not selected recipients in similar circumstances. The advantage here is that it is not necessary to leave the system to locate a recipient who has never been sent a text message before, since it will continue to be on the list, only that away from the main or most frequent ones. 35

    In a particular example, click on the first representative icon of the recipient that the system proposes to us as more likely. Once selected on a initially blank screen of the graphic display device, a series of proposed symbols are displayed, which contain text messages that match the given scenario 5 and for the selected recipient. If on the contrary we had chosen the second representative icon of the second most likely recipient according to the system, or the third or any other, the symbols would have changed, adapting to the recipient in question.
     10
    It follows that the first times that the user uses the system will not have the predictive capacity so developed, so the more uses it is given, the more accurate the prediction will be. Specify that what is represented on the screen of the graphic representation device is what is proposed by the system, based on the information collected from the past and stored in historical. fifteen

    Additionally indicate that icons or symbols are recommended based on different vehicle parameters. For example, if the user currently has the windshield wiper active, the representative symbol of the text message “it is raining” (for example a gray cloud with water droplets) will appear between one of the first, since the system will understand that it can be one of the text messages that the user wants to send right now. Other data such as the time of day or the current position of the vehicle (near your home, near work ...) are other factors to consider when proposing icons or symbols to the user. The proposed icons or symbols would appear among the first. The user could however select any other symbol, from an extensive library.

    Thus the system and method of the present invention is able to prioritize icons and symbols. However, it is also able to detect special situations, for example a highly dense traffic state, or a retention. Consequently, being an anomalous situation, there is an interest in communicating. Therefore, although historically in this scenario other different text messages have been sent, and therefore the symbols that are displayed are related to other matters, the system will not stop proposing a symbol on the state of the traffic, since it is not a routine but extraordinary action, and pertinent to be transmitted to the user of the vehicle at that time. 35

    According to another aspect of the invention, the step of displaying in a graphic representation device the at least one symbol comprises decreasing ordering of the at least one symbol based on a probability dependent on the accumulated information, the data collected and the determined probable recipient . In this way, the user will most likely find himself on the initial screen with the symbol relative to the text message he needs to transmit.

    Add that the icons represented in the graphic representation device are those related to the potential recipients. If the user presses another icon relative to another recipient, the symbols change to others, to the usual ones associated with that new contact.

    Advantageously, the method of the invention comprises an additional step of selecting a user from one of the plurality of representative icons of the at least one determined probable recipient.

    Thus it is possible that the at least one likely recipient may or may not be the final recipient of the text message. It is thanks to the information available that the electronic device is capable of predicting and / or calculating and / or estimating which of the contacts in the agenda 20 is most likely to be the recipient of the text message. This prediction, however, however precise it may be, does not always have to coincide with the user's intentions. For this reason, the contacts represented by the icons sorted from most to least likely are shown on the screen, so that the user can select another icon other than the one that occupies the first most likely position, and thus choose the final recipient. Do not be the most likely recipient according to the system, but another.

    According to another aspect of the invention, the selection by a user of one of the plurality of icons determines the order of the at least one symbol shown, so that the more times it is selected throughout use, the system will understand that it is 30 more likely its selection, appearing in a more preeminent place on the screen of the graphic representation device for an equal scenario.

    On the other hand, the method of the invention comprises an additional stage of selection by a user of one of the at least one representative symbol of the at least one determined probable text template. In this way the user chooses for transmission a text with the simplified selection of a representative symbol.

    Thus, the preselection of the most probable recipient through the selection of the representative icon of the same (which is positioned first because it is the most probable and by the decreasing order described above is the place that it occupies) implies that the symbols that appear representing the different types of text message text template are sorted first. If the user, when proceeding to the selection of the recipient, opts not for the most probable but for the second most likely (that is, the icon that occupies the second position in the decreasing order of probable recipients 10), the symbols are automatically reordered icons in a second mode that may or may not match the first mode. Implying that of the library of symbols, there are symbols that cease to appear on the screen of the graphic representation device due to the fact that when their probability of sending is reduced, they occupy positions substantially away from the first position. Thus, if for some reason, unpredictable by the intelligence of the system, the user wishes to select one of those symbols representative of a text template that is not considered probable, he must move these symbols on the screen until he finds the desired one.

    More preferably, the accumulated information comprises a plurality of 20 previously sent text templates and / or a plurality of recipients of previously sent text messages, and / or previously collected data. Such collected information is accumulated in such a way that it is sorted and / or classified so that for each context and / or defined environment some probable text templates are associated, susceptible of being sent to recipients. 25

    More particularly, the data collected includes at least one of meteorological status and / or time of day and / or day of the week and / or traffic status and / or origin of a route and / or destination of a route, preferably being This information is sent in the usual way through text messages. 30

    In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the text message comprises the at least one probable text template and / or at least some data collected from the at least one parameter of the vehicle and / or its context.
     35
    Specify that text messages are composed of a text template, and that those text templates may have gaps or blanks, which must be filled in with information. This information is obtained from the vehicle, or from its surroundings and / or context, through the means intended for it. It can be a text template without additional information such as "I leave home", which consists of static information, or a template with dynamic information, such as "I'm going through Calle Aragón", the content of which it will be modified based on the at least one parameter of the vehicle and / or its context and the determined probable recipient.

    In the case of dynamic text messages, each symbol is not associated with a static text 10 and ready to be sent, but there are symbols whose content depends directly on parameters necessary for the determination of the scenario (meteorology, GPS navigation, traffic status ...) In this way, the same symbol will have a text template with gaps or blanks, which will be filled in with the actual information collected from the data collected from at least one parameter of the vehicle and / or its context. fifteen

    Text messages can also be dynamic, such as in the case of selecting a symbol of the type “I am close to …… ..”. The system will fill in the text template linked to this symbol with the information it collects from the GPS navigator at that time, that is, with data collected from at least one parameter of the vehicle and / or its context.

    According to another aspect of the invention, the method comprises an additional step of editing by a user of at least one of the text templates stored in the memory, so that he can customize them in case of a need to transmit a text message 25 with a variant with respect to the preexisting ones.

    Detail that the text templates are predefined and stored in a database, but that if the user wishes to modify said text templates by re-editing them, he can do so, so that the representative symbol of the text template in question, when 30 is selected , will be linked to the new text template that the user has edited.

    Advantageously, the text templates associated with the symbols are predefined and stored in the memory of the electronic device, but the user can additionally proceed to an edition and / or personalization of said text templates, so that a symbol can be modified its associated text template if the user so wishes. In this way a symbol in the form of a house (eg) whose text template was "I leave home", the user could modify it by "I just left home at this moment!", So the system is more humanized .
     5
    Note that the user can proceed to an edition, both of the content of the text template of the text messages, and of the priority of some representative icons of the contact persons or library symbols representative of the text templates.

    The user can also predefine their own comments. For example, a symbol of a child 10 could mean in a first case, for one person, "remember to feed the child" and in a second case, for another person, it could mean "please, pick up the child from school" . In this way the user can customize the comments so that they adapt to the different situations and needs of his life.
     fifteen
    Advantageously, the icon of the plurality of representative icons of the most likely recipient is shown in the graphic representation device at a position closer to a driving position, which makes the driver user more accessible by clicking on the representative icon of the most likely recipient.
     twenty
    Thus, the rest of the icons representing the rest of the contacts are arranged, in a preferred embodiment, "horizontally" with the decreasing sequence described above, according to the probability of being the final recipient. In this way the icon that occupies the second position in the sequence, will be the second most likely recipient, and the third icon, the third most likely recipient, and so on. Each contact in the contact list of the electronic device is represented by a specific icon, so that the graphic representation device represents the icons associated with the most likely contacts of being the final recipients of the text message.
     30
    In an alternative embodiment, an icon of the plurality of icons representative of the contacts in the contact directory is representative of a plurality of contacts simultaneously. So that an icon represents a group of contacts, such as a representative icon of “family”, means that when it is selected by a user, it is being selected as the recipient of the text message not only a single individual recipient but a plurality of contacts that the user may have previously configured. Thus, with a single gesture, a multitude of recipients associated with each other are selected by an icon.

    Additionally, the representative symbol of the most likely message text template 5 is shown on the graphic display device at a position closer to the driving position and / or at a position closer to the position of the icon, which makes that the driver user has more accessible the click on the representative symbol of the most likely text template.
     10
    More particularly, the plurality of icons are shown in a first row in the graphic representation device, and wherein the at least one symbol is shown in at least a second row below the first row in the graphic representation device. In this way the screen is distributed in an orderly manner and by functionalities: in a first row the representative icons of the potential recipients, and in a second 15 row, and following, the symbols related to the different text messages that can be sent . In this way, the user can become familiar with the operation of the device and the application included in this method in a shorter period. Additionally, with this representation the driver user always has both the most likely recipient and text template easily available to him. twenty

    Specify that, in a preferred embodiment, the plurality of icons is made visible by moving the row of icons towards the driving position, there may be other alternatives such as clicking on an ellipsis icon, such as a direct access to the agenda. 25

    Thus, in an alternative mode of resolution, another way of accessing the rest of the contacts stored in the phonebook is by sliding your finger on the section of the graphic representation device in which the most probable icons are displayed, and that are moving, disappearing the most probable on the one hand of the device of graphic representation and appearing on the other side of the device of graphic representation the successively less probable, respecting the probabilistic order that defines them. In other words as if a scroll was made on the imaginary line drawn by the succession of icons.
     35
    Also the plurality of symbols is visible by moving the symbols towards the driving position and / or upwards, there may be other alternatives such as clicking on an ellipsis icon, such as a direct access to the agenda and / or new screen with additional symbols.
     5
    It is also possible, according to the present invention, that the way in which the icons or symbols appear varies, so that those that are most used always appear above, and those that are less used appear below (if it is a vertical scrolling screen), in front of a way in which the icons or symbols that are most used always appear on the screen side of the graphic representation device closest to the driver, and those that are less used on the side of The furthest driver screen. For each of these two cases the decreasing order, based on probability, is represented from top to bottom or from side to side respectively. Understanding above and below, the upper margin and the lower margin of the graphic display device respectively, and on the one hand and the other understood the closest margin and the margin furthest from the driving position of the graphic display device.

    The attached drawings show, by way of non-limiting example, a method of generating a text message for an electronic device in vehicle, constituted according to the invention. Other features and advantages of said method of generating a text message for an electronic device in vehicle, object of the present invention, will be apparent from the description of a preferred, but not exclusive, embodiment illustrated by way of non-limiting example in the accompanying drawings, in which:

    DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

    In view of the aforementioned figures and, according to the numbering adopted, an example of a preferred embodiment of the invention can be observed therein, which comprises the parts and elements indicated and described in detail below. 25
    Thus, as seen in Figures 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7, the method of generating a text message 8 for an electronic device 3 in vehicle 1, comprises the following steps:
    i) collect data 10 from at least one parameter of vehicle 1 and / or its context 2,
    ii) determine from among a plurality of contacts 71 stored in an agenda 7 of the 30 electronic device 3 at least one probable recipient 5 of the at least one text message 8, based on information 61 accumulated in a database 6 of the device electronic 3, and of the data 10 collected from the at least one parameter of the vehicle 1 and / or its context 2,
    iii) determine from among a plurality of text templates 81 stored in a memory 13 of the electronic device 3 at least one probable text template 82 for the at least one text message 8 based on the information 61 accumulated in the database 6 of the electronic device 3, of the data 10 collected from the at least one parameter of the vehicle 1 and / or its context 2, and of the determined probable recipient 5, 5
    iv) show on a graphical display device 31 a plurality of icons 91 representative of the at least one determined recipient 5, and,
    v) show at least one determined text template 82 on a graphical display device 31.
     10
    In another alternative embodiment, the plurality of contacts 71 is stored on a server to which the electronic device 3 has access.

    Alternatively, also, one of the plurality of icons 91 representative of the at least one probable recipient 5 determined may represent a group or group of probable recipients 15.

    More particularly, as seen in Figures 3 and 4, the step of displaying on a graphic representation device 31 the at least one probable text template 82 comprises a representation of the at least one probable text template 82 by means of the 20 minus a symbol 92.

    Specify that the data 10 of the at least one parameter of the vehicle 1 and / or its context 2 include information on the state of the vehicle obtainable from the sensing means of the vehicle itself, as well as other information on the environment and / or context 25 obtainable from the electronic device 3 itself (such as day of the week, time of day ...) or by other means or channels such as satellite (GPS location, traffic status ...). In addition, the user's own information could also be obtained through other portable electronic devices (such as heart rate, stress level ...). 30
