Apple wants to make sure that content is properly synced across its various devices — including vehicles — as evidenced by a new patent filing for “Synchronized Rendering.” Part of the patent filing involves Apple’s CarPlay feature.
In the patent filing Apple says that current techniques for rendering content using data on multiple devices are generally ineffective and/or inefficient. Apple’s idea is to provide more effective and/or efficient techniques for rendering such content. The techniques optionally complement or replace other methods for rendering content.
In the patent filing Apple says that rendering content currently is often performed by a single device and then whatever is rendered is displayed by that device or another. Such architecture takes advantage of processing power of the device to provide a curated experience. However, data needed for rendering is not always on a single device and ensuring such can be inefficient. Accordingly, Apple wants to improve rendering techniques for systems with multiple devices.
