Claims:WE CLAIM
1. A method for predicting and caching user activity within a vehicle, the method comprising:
identifying, by a user experience device, a contextual information based on current activity associated with a user within the vehicle;
retrieving, by the user experience device, predictive information from a remote server or a local cache within the vehicle, based on a type of the contextual information;
rendering, by the user experience device, the predictive information to the user within the vehicle in response to retrieving; and
capturing, by the user experience device, response of the user to the predictive information rendered to the user as a user feedback.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein the contextual information comprises a global context ID, and wherein the current activity comprises details associated with the vehicle and the user.
3. The method of claim 2, wherein the details associated with the vehicle and the user comprises at least one of user profile, location of the vehicle, current day, weekdays, weekend, time of the day, current weather, origin and destination, current date, vehicle make, or vehicle specifications.
4. The method of claim 2, wherein the predictive information is retrieved from the remote server, when the contextual information comprises the global context ID.
5. The method of claim 1, wherein the contextual information comprises at least one application context Identifier (ID) associated with at least one application, and wherein the current activity comprises the user accessing the at least one application within the vehicle.
6. The method of claim 5, wherein, when data connectivity is not available, a local predictive information is retrieved from the local cache based on the contextual information.
7. The method of claim 5, wherein, when data connectivity is available, retrieving the predictive information comprises:
retrieving, by a local Artificial Intelligence (AI) node, a local predictive information from the local cache based on the contextual information;
determining confidence level of the local predictive information retrieved by the local AI node; and
rendering the local predictive information to the user, when confidence value associated with the local predictive information is greater than or equal to a predefined confidence value.
8. The method of claim 7 further comprising:
retrieving a server predictive information from the remote server based on the contextual information, when confidence level of the local predictive information is less than the predefined confidence value; and
matching the server predictive information with the local predictive information.
9. The method of claim 8 further comprising rendering the local predictive information to the user, when the local predictive information matches with the server predictive information.
10. The method of claim 8 further comprising:
rendering the server predictive information to the user, when the local predictive information does not match with the server predictive information; and
updating the local cache based on the server predictive information.
11. The method of claim 1 further comprising updating at least one of the remote server and the local cache based on the user feedback.
12. A user experience device for predicting and caching user activity within a vehicle, the user experience device comprising:
a processor;
a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores instructions, which on execution cause the processor to:
identify a contextual information based on current activity associated with a user within the vehicle;
retrieve predictive information from a remote server or a local cache within the vehicle, based on a type of the contextual information;
render the predictive information to the user within the vehicle in response to retrieving; and
capture response of the user to the predictive information rendered to the user as a user feedback.
13. The user experience device of claim 12, wherein the contextual information comprises a global context ID, and wherein the current activity comprises details associated with the vehicle and the user.
14. The user experience device of claim 13, wherein the predictive information is retrieved from the remote server, when the contextual information comprises the global context ID.
15. The user experience device of claim 12, wherein the contextual information comprises at least one application context Identifier (ID) associated with at least one application, and wherein the current activity comprises the user accessing the at least one application within the vehicle.
16. The user experience device of claim 15, wherein, when data connectivity is not available, a local predictive information is retrieved from the local cache based on the contextual information.
17. The user experience device of claim 15, wherein, when data connectivity is available, to retrieve the predictive information, the instructions further cause the processor to:
retrieve, by a local AI node, a local predictive information from the local cache based on the contextual information;
determine confidence level of the local predictive information retrieved by the local AI node; and
render the local predictive information to the user, when confidence value associated with the local predictive information is greater than or equal to a predefined confidence value.
18. The user experience device of claim 17, wherein the processor instructions further cause the processor to:
retrieve a server predictive information from the remote server based on the contextual information, when confidence level of the local predictive information is less than the predefined confidence value; and
match the server predictive information with the local predictive information.
19. The user experience device of claim 18, wherein the processor instructions further cause the processor to render the local predictive information to the user, when the local predictive information matches with the server predictive information.
20. The user experience device of claim 18, wherein the processor instructions further cause the processor to:
render the server predictive information to the user, when the local predictive information does not match with the server predictive information; and
update the local cache based on the server predictive information.
21. The user experience device of claim 12, wherein the processor instructions further cause the processor to update at least one of the remote server and the local cache based on the user feedback.
22. A system for predicting and caching user activity within a vehicle, the system comprising:
a user experience device comprising:
processor;
a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores instructions, which on execution cause the processor to:
identify a contextual information based on current activity associated with a user within the vehicle;
retrieve predictive information from a remote server or a local cache within the vehicle, based on a type of the contextual information;
render the predictive information to the user within the vehicle in response to retrieving; and
capture response of the user to the predictive information rendered to the user as a user feedback.
