Abstract
A method for providing voice confirmations corresponding to actions of passengers in a vehicle includes the step of detecting an action performed by an occupant of the vehicle. A corresponding voice confirmation is identified from among a plurality of pre-stored voice confirmations. The corresponding voice confirmation is audibly reproduced. The reproducing step may include the step of synthesizing the corresponding voice confirmation, or the step of playing back a pre-recorded voice confirmation as representative of the corresponding voice confirmation.
