Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090063029METHOD FOR STARTING AN INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE - A method is described for starting an internal combustion engine having an E-machine coupled to it in a motor vehicle, after the input of a certain torque command at a drive control of the internal combustion engine, the internal combustion engine being accelerated for the start by the E-machine, and the internal combustion engine being set by the drive control, via actuators, to specified characteristics values for the start. To reduce exhaust gas emissions at the start of the internal combustion engine, the internal combustion engine is accelerated by the E-machine, without the injection of fuel, until the engine torque that is able to be implemented by the internal combustion engine, essentially corresponds to the torque command, and the injection of fuel into the internal combustion engine is only then released.03-05-2009

20120015696Application Audio Announcements Using Wireless Protocols - The present invention relates to methods and apparatus for using a wireless telephone communication protocol to make a non-telephonic audio announcement (NTAA). An apparatus to use a hands-free telephonic device to make a non-telephonic audio announcement (NTAA) includes an announcer module configured to receive the NTAA from an application. The announcer module is configured to send an outgoing call initiation command signal to the hands-free telephonic device using a hands-free communication protocol. After the call initiation command signal is sent, the announcer sends the NTAA to the hands free telephonic device using the hands-free communication protocol.01-19-2012
