Systems, computer-implemented methods, and computer program products to facilitate context based interaction between a vehicle and an entity device are provided. According to an embodiment, a system can comprise a memory that stores computer executable components and a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise a context component that identifies a context condition corresponding to a vehicle or an entity device communicatively coupled to the vehicle. The computer executable components can further comprise a message component that sends a context based message to the entity device based on the context condition. The computer executable components can further comprise a control component that initiates an operation associated with the vehicle based on an instruction input to the entity device in response to the context based message.

Context based interaction between a vehicle and an entity device

In general, techniques are described by which provide confirmed automated access to portions of vehicles. A control system comprising a processor, and a memory may be configured to perform the techniques. The memory may store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to determine that the authorized operator of the vehicle is intending to access a portion of the vehicle, and output, responsive to determination, a confirmation request to the authorized operator. The confirmation request may request confirmation that the authorized operator is intending to access the portion of the vehicle. The memory may also store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to receive, from the authorized operator, a confirmation response indicating whether the authorized operator is intending to access at least the portion of the vehicle, and automatically open, based on the confirmation response, at least the portion of the vehicle.
