This disclosure relates to a system and method for determining responsiveness of a driver of a vehicle to feedback regarding driving behaviors. The system may include a sensor configured to generate output signals conveying first driving behavior information, which may characterize operation of the vehicle by the driver. The system may include one or more processors configured to obtain the first driving behavior information. The one or more processors may effectuate provision of feedback defined by feedback information based on the first driving behavior. The sensor may be configured to output signals conveying second driving behavior information, which may characterize operation of the vehicle by the driver during and/or subsequent to the provision of the feedback. The one or more processors may be configured to obtain the second driving behavior information and assess responsiveness of the driver to the feedback based on the second driving behavior information.

A fire alerting apparatus for a vehicle, includes: a temperature sensing device configured to detect a temperature of a bus bar of a high-voltage junction box; and performing a warning by determining at least one of a fire warning state, an overtemperature state, or a vehicle inspection state in accordance with a temperature detection result of the temperature sensing device.

A car seat alarm system for alerting a parent or caretaker to retrieve the infant child prior to exiting a vehicle is provided. The vehicle has an openable door mounted within a door frame. The car seat alarm system comprises a child car seat having a harness and a fastener positioned on the harness. The fastener is closable to secure the harness around the infant child and openable to unsecure the harness from around the infant child. A transmitting system is mounted on the child car seat. A receiving system is associated with the door and the door frame and directly interfaces with the transmitting system. Upon opening the door from within the door frame, with the fastener dosed to secure the harness around the infant child, the transmitting system provides an alert. The alert reminds the parent or caretaker to retrieve the infant child prior to exiting.

The present disclosure relates to system for controlling operation of machine. The system includes fatigue detection unit configured to generate a signal indicative of fatigue parameter of an operator of the machine. The system includes proximity sensing unit to capture image of a surrounding area of the machine. The system further includes a controller, configured to determine fatigue condition of the operator and to detect presence of an obstacle in the surrounding area of the machine. The controller is further configured to generate a warning signal based on the fatigue condition of the operator and the captured image of the surrounding area of the machine. The controller is configured to communicate signal indicative of the action of the operator with a control module of the machine. The control module autonomously control operation of the machine based on a signal indicative of the action of the operator.

A method for determining an ego-motion of a vehicle is described, which is carried out in driver assistance systems, particularly in parking assistance systems. The method involves: taking a sequence of images, successive in time of a vehicle surroundings by a vehicle camera; determining, based on the image sequence, at least one motion flow with regard to an object in the vehicle surroundings; and determining the ego-motion of the vehicle based on the at least one motion flow.

A vehicle illumination apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus comprises at least one aperture disposed in a panel of the vehicle. A light source is disposed proximate the aperture and configured to emit a first emission having a first wavelength. A first photoluminescent portion is disposed proximate the panel substantially within the aperture and configured to emit a second emission having a second wavelength in response to receiving the first emission.

A vehicle-mounted device includes an analysis unit and a control unit. The analysis unit detects an insertion target into which an insertion blade is inserted, on the basis of sensing information acquired from a spatial recognition device. The control unit performs a facing determination to determine whether or not the insertion blade faces an insertion surface having an insertion portion of the insertion target on the basis of the sensing information.
