Light bar assemblies configured to be mounted to a rim of a steering wheel of a vehicle are disclosed. The light bar assemblies can include components of a driver monitoring system. The light bar assembly includes two shells defining or surrounding the rim and a wrapping surrounding the two shells. A portion of the wrapping is tucked into a slot disposed between the two shells forming a slit. A lens comprises a visible light transmissive portion and an IR light transmissive portion.

A device may receive fiber sensing data identifying vehicles traveling on a roadway associated with a fiber optic network and location data identifying geographical locations of the vehicles traveling on the roadway. The device may process the fiber sensing data, with a machine learning model, to identify a particular vehicle, of the vehicles, that is traveling in a wrong direction on the roadway. The device may process the location data, with the machine learning model, to identify locations of the roadway, a cellular network associated with the roadway, and vehicle devices of the vehicles traveling on the roadway, other than the particular vehicle, and a nearest camera device to the particular vehicle. The device may perform one or more actions based on the locations of the roadway, the cellular network associated with the roadway, and the vehicle devices of the vehicles traveling on the roadway, other than the particular vehicle.

A system and method for speed/traction/slip control influences a driving engine torque of the vehicle. The method includes: calculating an idealized nominal engine torque from a linear control law applied to the speed/slip error; calculating an idealized setpoint for the speed/slip by applying a reference model to the idealized nominal engine torque; calculating a linearizing feedback with properties of compensating the nonlinearities in the road surface contact, compensating the inertia in the powertrain, and damping the powertrain; using for feedback the engine rotational speed, numerically determined derivation of engine speed, average speed of the driven axis, numerically determined derivative of the rotational speed of the driven axis, actual engine torque, and applying the driving engine torque to the engine vehicle to influence the traction and stability of the vehicle.

A sudden acceleration prevention method for a vehicle includes the following steps, which may be performed by a controller: monitoring an output signal of an accelerator pedal sensor so as to obtain a detected operation state of an accelerator pedal, determining whether the detected operation state of the accelerator pedal is within a predetermined brake pedal operation range, determining whether the detected operation state of the accelerator pedal is within a predetermined accelerator pedal and brake pedal overlapping operation range if the detected operation state of the accelerator pedal is within the predetermined brake pedal operation range, and outputting an output reduction control signal of the vehicle if the detected operation state of the accelerator pedal is not within the accelerator pedal and brake pedal overlapping operation range.

A lane detection system for a vehicle includes at least one sensor for sensing lane markers and objects in the vicinity of a host vehicle, a driver interface in the host vehicle, and a controller having control logic. The control logic receives signals from the at least one sensor, determines a present lane of travel based on the sensor signals received, determines that a time that the host vehicle has been in the present lane of travel meets or exceeds a predetermined time, and transmits an alert signal to the driver interface in response to the time meeting or exceeding the predetermined time.

A moving body includes a power receiving device configured to receive contactless power feed from a ground power feed device, and a control device. The control device is configured to take a getting-off prevention measure for preventing an occupant from getting off the moving body when the moving body gets into a state of being difficult to move on an electrified road where the ground power feed device is installed.

A vehicle is disclosed which includes a controller having at least one of a vehicle security module and a playback module. The vehicle security module may operate in a secure once mode of operation or in a secure all mode of operation. The playback module records ride information associated with the vehicle. The ride information may be provided to an external device.
