In-vehicle infant health monitoring system

Abstract

A system for vehicle to another party communications that includes a vehicle personality module adapted to create a vehicle personality and a communications system that utilizes the created vehicle personality for one or more communications instead of a user's profile. The one or more communications are associated with one or more of an identifier and an icon representing the vehicle personality, with this identifier and/or icon sent with at least one communication and displayable to the recipient of the communication.

1 . An infant health monitoring system in a vehicle comprising:
 one or more in-vehicle sensors;   an infant profile that at stored in a memory infant profile data from the one or more in-vehicle sensors; and   an infant monitoring module, the infant monitoring module evaluating information from the one or more in-vehicle sensors and providing status information about the infant to a user of the vehicle.   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the user is one or more of a vehicle driver, a vehicle passenger and one or more persons at a remote location. 
     
     
         3 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the remote location is a home. 
     
     
         4 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein a prediction module cooperates with the infant profile to predict supply usage for a trip. 
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein a prediction module cooperates with an advertising module to forward advertising information to one or more users. 
     
     
         6 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein an application monitors the infant. 
     
     
         7 . The system of  claim 1 , the one or more sensors include biometric sensors, a microphone, a camera, a video camera, a diaper sensor and a wearable sensor. 
     
     
         8 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the providing of status information is varied based on whether the infant is awake. 
     
     
         9 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein one or more of an image and a video accompanies the status information. 
     
     
         10 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein a context is determined and forwarded with the status information to a remote location. 
     
     
         11 . An in-vehicle infant health monitoring method comprising:
 evaluating information from one or more in-vehicle sensors associated with the infant; and   providing status information about the infant based on information obtained from the one or more in-vehicle sensors to a user of the vehicle.   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the user is one or more of a vehicle driver, a vehicle passenger and one or more persons at a remote location. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the remote location is a home. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein a prediction module cooperates with the infant profile to predict supply usage for a trip. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein a prediction module cooperates with an advertising module to forward advertising information to one or more users. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the status information is provided one or more of audibly and visually to a user. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 11 , the one or more sensors include biometric sensors, a microphone, a camera, a video camera, a diaper sensor and a wearable sensor. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the providing of status information is varied based on whether the infant is awake. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein one or more of an image and a video accompanies the status information. 
     
     
         20 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein a context is determined and forwarded with the status information to a remote location.
