Claim 0:
1. A vehicle system comprising:
a first speaker associated with a first zone identifier of a vehicle;
a first display associated with the first zone identifier;
a second speaker associated with a second zone identifier of the vehicle;
a second display associated with the second zone identifier;
a set of microphones installed in the vehicle;
one or more processors; and
one or more memory storing instructions that, upon execution by the one or more processors, configure the vehicle system to:
establish a data connection with a first device located in the vehicle;
store first data indicating that the first speaker, the first display, and the first device are associated with the first zone identifier;
store second data indicating that the second speaker and the second display are associated with the second zone identifier;
determine that a communications session is established between the first device and a second device outside of the vehicle;
receive user input data indicating that the communications session is to be associated with the first zone identifier and the second zone identifier;
store third data indicating that a session identifier of the communications session is associated with the first zone identifier and the second zone identifier;
receive, from the second device, incoming audio data associated with the communications session;
receive, from the set of microphones, first outgoing audio data associated with the first zone identifier;
receive, from the set of microphones, second outgoing audio data associated with the second zone identifier;
generate first audio data by at least multiplexing the incoming audio data and the second outgoing audio data to generate first multiplexed audio data and encoding the first multiplexed audio data;
cause the first speaker to output the first audio data;
generate second audio data by at least multiplexing the incoming audio data and the first outgoing audio data to generate second multiplexed audio data and encoding the second multiplexed audio data;
cause the second speaker to output the second audio data;
generate third outgoing audio data by at least multiplexing the first outgoing audio data and the second outgoing audio data to generate third multiplexed audio data and encoding the third multiplexed audio data; and
send the third outgoing audio data to the first device.
