wherein the external image analyzer is configured to identify the object within the third data based on the human gesture.
8. The vehicle data relation device of claim 7 , wherein the internal audio/image data analyzer is configured to send data representing the human gesture to the external image analyzer and the external image analyzer is configured to map a pointing action to the third data and to identify the object based on a mapped relationship between the pointing action and the object.
9. The vehicle data relation device of claim 1 , wherein the internal audio/image data analyzer being configured to identify second data comprises the internal audio/image data analyzer being configured to identify a human gaze direction within the image; wherein the external image analyzer is configured to identify the object within the third data based on the human gaze direction.
10. The vehicle data relation device of claim 9 , wherein the internal audio/image data analyzer is configured to send data representing the gaze direction to the external image analyzer and the external image analyzer is configured to identify the object at least in part based on a relationship between the object and the gaze direction.
11. The vehicle data relation device of claim 9 , wherein the internal audio/image data analyzer is configured to send data representing the gaze direction to the external image analyzer and the external image analyzer is configured to map the gaze direction to the third data and to identify the object based on a mapped relationship between the gaze direction and the object.
12. The vehicle data relation device of claim 1 , wherein the external image analyzer is configured to identify the object based on at least two of: one or more keywords, one or more gestures, or a gaze direction.
13. The vehicle data relation device of claim 1 , further comprising a vehicle sensor data analyzer configured to receive vehicle sensor data from a vehicle sensor, and wherein the external image analyzer is further configured to generate object data based on the vehicle sensor data, wherein the vehicle sensor comprises a steering sensor, an accelerometer, a braking sensor, a speedometer, or any combination thereof.
14. The vehicle data relation device of claim 1 , further comprising a vehicle actuator data analyzer, configured to receive actuator data, and wherein the external image analyzer is further configured to generate object data based on the vehicle actuator data, wherein the vehicle actuator data comprise data representing a steering wheel position, a brake position, a brake depression, a braking force, speed, velocity, acceleration, or any combination thereof.
15. The vehicle data relation device of claim 14 , wherein the sensor data analyzer and/or the vehicle actuator data analyzer is configured to determine from the sensor data and/or vehicle actuator data an action of the vehicle relative to an object represented by the object data.
16. The vehicle data relation device of claim 1 , wherein the object data generator is configured to determine a priority of the object based on the audio indicator or the image indicator, wherein the priority is based on an importance of avoiding a collision with the object, risk of a collision with the object, an estimated damage associated with a collision with the object, or any combination thereof.
17. The vehicle data relation device of claim 1 , wherein the object data comprise a label of one or more detected objects.
18. The vehicle data relation device of claim 1 , wherein the object data generator is further configured to generate a sensor data label, wherein the sensor data label is a label representing at least one of the identity of the object, the action of the object, or the priority of the object.
19. A non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising instructions which, if executed, cause one or more processors to:
identify first data representing audio from within a vehicle or an image from within the vehicle;
identify, from the first data, second data representing an audio indicator or an image indicator, wherein the audio indicator is human speech from within the vehicle, and wherein the image indicator represents an action of a human within the vehicle;
