A measurement processing system is disclosed for fusing measurement data from a set of independent self-validating process sensors monitoring the same real-time measurand in order to generate a combined best estimate for the value, uncertainty and measurement status of the measurand. The information processing apparatus includes a network unit which receives user recognition information having time data from an external device; and a processor which outputs a user recognition signal corresponding to the time data if a current time reaches a time corresponding to the time data. At least one receiver permits communication between the control unit and at least one powertrain input.
