US Patent 10539966 Service cooperation system for vehicle

A service cooperation system enables a use of a function provided by an in-vehicle apparatus or an external apparatus as a service. The service cooperation system for the vehicle includes a service interface, a local service bus, a service bus, and an integrated application. The service interface of a subject apparatus provides the service generated in the subject apparatus to a different apparatus. The local service bus transmits and receives a message between the service interface of the subject apparatus and the service interface of the different apparatus. The service bus is virtually configured by a connection of the local service bus of the subject apparatus and the local service bus of the different apparatus. The integrated application functions as the application and enables a cooperated use of an in-vehicle service and an external service through the service bus.
