More Information
Summary:The invention relates to in-vehicle functions using short-range communications. In-vehicle functions are implemented using a location device disposed in a vehicle, a central controller of the vehicle, and logic executable by a computer processor of the central controller. The location device includes a wireless communications interface. The logic receives a unique identifier of the location device. The unique identifier identifies a location in the vehicle in which the location device is disposed. The logic also validates the location device and an end user device in response to activation of the location device by the end user device via the communications interface. The logic further receives a request from the end user device to implement end user-configured settings for an electronic component that services the location in the vehicle corresponding to the unique identifier and activates the electronic component based on the end user-configured settings.
