Systems and methods for providing zone-based availability for playing media in a vehicle

Abstract

Systems and methods for providing zone-based availability for playing media are provided. The system may comprise a vehicle comprising a cabin, an ultra-wideband receiver, a plurality of non-ultra-wideband receivers, a plurality of media playing devices, and a computing device comprises a processor and a memory configured to store instructions that, when executed by the processor, are configured to cause the processor to establish one or more zones within the vehicle, establish an ultra-wideband connection between one or more electronic devices and the ultra-wideband receiver, determine a location of each of the one or more electronic devices, assign a zone for each electronic device based on the location of each of the one or more electronic devices, and establish a connection between each electronic device and the one or more non-ultra-wideband receivers located within its assigned zone, enabling the electronic device to play media within its assigned zone.
