An electronic device connection apparatus and a control method thereof is disclosed. The electronic device connection apparatus may include a connector connected to an electronic device, an input device that generates, in response to a user input, a mode change signal instructing a change of an operation mode for determining a charging and/or a data transmission operation of the electronic device. The apparatus may include a controller that charges the electronic device connected to the connector and/or performs a data communication with the electronic device in response to a preset operation mode, and changes the operation mode in response to the mode change signal.

Connecting apparatus for electronic device and controlling method thereof

A server includes a communication device and a controller. The communication device receives information about whether a destination is set from a vehicle. The controller sets a radio signal recommendation scheme based on whether the destination is set, determines whether a recommended radio signal recommended in a set recommendation scheme is applicable, and transmits a radio signal recommendation list generated based on a determination result. A vehicle receives the radio signal recommendation list from the server when a strength of the received radio signal is less than a specified value, compares a strength of at least one radio signal included in the radio signal recommendation list with the strength of the received radio signal, and determines whether to receive the recommended radio signal based on the comparison result.

Vehicle, server, vehicle system and method for recommending a radio signal

A vehicle terminal system for processing a message includes: a portable device for receiving the message; and a vehicle terminal for analyzing a text of the message received from the portable device to yield an analysis result, and for determining a recommended operation corresponding to the analysis result. Thus, the vehicle terminal does not output pop-up images for all messages received from the portable device and recommends a message suitable for the user.

Vehicle terminal, system, and method for processing message

A wearable device includes a skin-attachable device to be attached to a skin of a user to acquire user data, an electronic device that supplies power to the skin-attachable device, and a connection device including a first cable connected to the skin-attachable device and a second cable connected to the first cable and detachably attached to the electronic device.

Wearable device and wearable system

A destination recommending apparatus includes: a navigation device configured to collect driving pattern information of a user; and a controller configured to calculate a visit probability of a destination at a current location or the visit probability of the destination at a current time, based on the driving pattern information. The controller is configured to predict the destination based on the visit probability.

Apparatus and method for recommending a destination

A vehicle system includes: a server configured to set a radio signal recommendation scheme based on whether a destination is set, determine whether a radio signal recommended in the set recommendation scheme is applicable, and transmit a radio signal recommendation list generated based on a determination result; and a vehicle configured to receive a radio signal. The vehicle receives the radio signal recommendation list from the server when a strength of the received radio signal is less than a specified value, compares a strength of at least one radio signal included in the radio signal recommendation list with the strength of the received radio signal, and determines whether to receive the recommended radio signal based on the comparison result.

A method for controlling an electric device in a vehicle includes: establishing communication with a first mobile device previously recognized by the vehicle; collecting first pattern information from the vehicle; comparing the first pattern information with second pattern information stored in the first mobile device; and discovering a second mobile device based on the comparison of the first pattern information with the second pattern information.

Electronic device in vehicle, control method thereof

Disclosed are a wireless connection system capable of conveniently connecting two devices through short-range wireless communication and a method of controlling the same. A method of controlling a mobile terminal performing wireless connection to a vehicle includes displaying a first menu corresponding to a first connection type and a second menu corresponding to a second connection type according to a first command, selecting the first menu or the second menu according to a second command, and performing automatic connection to the vehicle through a connection type corresponding to a menu selected by the second command. The first connection type uses information about whether a wireless connection address of the vehicle is equal to a pre-stored address and the second connection type uses the wireless connection address acquired from a digital code provided through the vehicle.

Wireless connection system and method of controlling same

An outgoing call control method for an in-vehicle head unit equipped with a voice recognition function includes connecting Bluetooth communication with a user device when a vehicle is powered on. Whether or not an existing voice recognition database is present is checked. Phone book information is downloaded from the user device through the connected Bluetooth communication. Voice recognition for an outgoing call is performed using the existing voice recognition database during download of the phone book information if the existing voice recognition database is present.

Method and apparatus for controlling outgoing call in vehicle equipped with voice recognition function

A method and apparatus for controlling an outgoing call during download of phone book information are provided. The method includes setting, by a controller, a communication channel with a user device when a vehicle is powered on. Additionally, the method includes transmitting, by the controller, a predetermined phone book download request signal to the user device via the set communication channel. The method may further include downloading, by the controller, new phone book information from the user device via the set communication channel. Furthermore, the method includes completing an outgoing call service request from a user using existing phone book information while new phone book information is downloaded.

Method and apparatus for controlling outgoing call during phone book information download

Disclosed is a system for providing a sound source information management service. The system for providing a sound source information management service manages sound source information transmitted from a driver terminal and extracts the sound source information corresponding to voice input data via voice recognition according to the voice input data transmitted from the driver terminal and provides the extracted sound source information to the driver terminal.

System for providing a sound source information management service

A music selection system and method in a vehicle is provided. The system includes a vehicle traveling information collection unit configured to collect vehicle traveling information, a vehicle exterior environment information collection unit configured to collect vehicle exterior environment information, a vehicle interior environment information collection unit configured to collect vehicle parameter values to enable songs selected by a driver to be matched with the vehicle parameter values and stored in corresponding classification categories, thereby allowing other songs in the same category to be selected and played when the selected song is played.

Music selection system and method in a vehicle

Disclosed herein is an acoustic correction apparatus and method for vehicle audio systems which is capable of providing optimal sound at a reference level to a listener even though the acoustic spatial response characteristics in the room of a vehicle vary due to a change in the material of seat covers or the like. A first acoustic analysis unit obtains target frequency characteristic data at a specific listening location based on generated acoustic signals played from an audio system. A second acoustic analysis unit obtains measured frequency characteristic data at the listening location based on measured acoustic signals collected by the microphone unit. An acoustic correction unit adjusts the equalizer of the audio system based on the target and measured frequency data.
