An improved light assembly includes aligned directional light sources mounted one behind another. A distal one of the light sources occludes light emitted from a proximal one of the light sources. A reflector is interposed between the light sources, with a convex surface facing the proximal one of the light sources. Thus, the light assembly projects a light field extending at least through an 180 hemisphere, and up to about 270 backwards from the forward orientation of the light field, well-illuminating lateral approaches to the assembly.

Disclosed herein is an emergency warning apparatus for a vehicle. An emergency warning apparatus for a vehicle according to one embodiment includes: a housing; a balloon which is placed in the upper portion of the housing, which is connected to the housing by a string, and which is expanded by introduced gas; a gas storage part which stores gas in order to supply gas to the balloon; a solenoid valve which controls a gas flow to the balloon; a main switch which operates the solenoid valve; a control unit which controls the main switch; and a main power supply which supplies power to the control unit; wherein when the main switch is operated, the solenoid valve is opened, gas is introduced from the gas storage part into the balloon, and finally the balloon rises upward and enters a state of being identifiable from a distance.

A warning device includes a supporting unit, a plurality of supporting frames pivotally connected to the supporting unit, and a warning unit. The warning unit is mounted to the supporting frames and configured to be driven by a slide seat of the supporting unit, via the supporting frames, to be in an expanded state when a distal end portion of each of the supporting frames is at an expanded position, and to be in a collapsed state when the distal end portion of each of the supporting frames is at a collapsed position. The warning unit includes at least one warning member made of a flexible material, and defining a hollow region when the warning unit is in the expanded state.

There is provided a multi use traffic warning and shelter apparatus that includes a shelter volume delimiting component and an indicia component. The shelter volume delimiting component includes an arrangement for releasably securing the indicia component to the shelter volume delimiting component in a docked disposition of the indicia component.

A module system for a motor vehicle includes at least one camera pod adapted to be mounted to the motor vehicle at least temporarily extending to the outside and/or from an exterior surface, with said camera pod including at least one camera and at least one port for fitting at least one modular peripheral device and/or adapter of a peripheral device; and at least one interface module adapted to be mounted to the motor vehicle at least temporarily extending into the inside and/or being accessible from the inside, with the interface module being electrically connected to the at least one camera pod. A rear view device and a motor vehicle include the at least one module system.

An automated operation vehicle control unit is configured to perform a detection process in which an abnormal condition of a passenger of a vehicle is detected and a notification process in which pedestrians are notified of the abnormal condition detected in the detection process in a case where the abnormal condition of the passenger is detected in the detection process.

A warning triangle structure includes a base, a triangular frame, a pulling assembly, and a fluorescent cloth. The triangular frame includes a bottom end and a top end opposite the bottom end. The bottom end is fixedly coupled to the base. The pulling assembly is located adjacent to the top end. The pulling assembly includes a spring and a drawstring that is resiliently coupled to the spring and that is stretchable relative to the spring. The fluorescent cloth includes a fixed end fixed to the triangular frame and a movable end coupled to the drawstring. The movable end is configured to be closed or opened relative to the triangular frame.
