ABSTRACT:
A vehicle mode manager that manages vehicle state information is provided. The vehicle mode manager includes a code module that registers an application program with the vehicle mode manager. Registering indicates the application program will be notified of vehicle state changes. Also included in the vehicle mode manager is a code module that receives vehicle status information, and a code module that determines a vehicle state based on both the vehicle status information and a current vehicle state. In addition, a privileged application or another manager can also set the vehicle state. The vehicle mode manager also includes a code module that provides the vehicle state to an application program. In this manner, the application program can react to the vehicle state information in a predefined manner.
