Techniques and examples pertaining to a virtual window between two remotely located environments are described. A method for teleconferencing using the virtual window may involve receiving, from a camera, first multimedia data of a first environment. The method may also involve receiving, from a position tracker, position data of a user in a second environment. The method may also involve transforming, based on the position data, the first multimedia data to second multimedia data of the first environment. The method may further involve presenting the second multimedia data to the user such that the user perceives the first environment as being separated from the second environment by a physical window.

Virtual window for teleconferencing

A vehicle includes a controller, programmed to responsive to wirelessly connecting to a mobile device using a mobile credential issued from a server within a time frame specified in the mobile credential, issue an access token to the mobile device, and responsive to receiving a command authorized by the access token from the mobile device, route the command to a vehicle subsystem for execution.
