Systems and Methods for Various Systems of a Vehicle
Systems for a vehicle include a sound system that detects and compensate for objects that block or muffle sound in the interior of the vehicle; light bars positioned under the headliner of the vehicle or on the front or back of the vehicle that can emulate headlights, taillights, brake lights and turn lights; external light fixtures that are symmetrical around a centerline and can be placed at any position on the front or back of the vehicle without structural change and a collision detection system.
Systems and methods for displaying contextually-sensitive braking information
A system for displaying contextually-sensitive braking information on a surface of a vehicle is presented. The system may include a transceiver, one or more memories, an electronic display disposed on the surface, and one or more processors. The one or more processors may be configured to detect a braking event of the vehicle, wherein the braking event has an associated braking force. The one or more processors may compare the braking force to a predetermined threshold braking force to determine whether the braking force exceeds the threshold braking force. The one or more processors may further cause the electronic display to display a braking indication having an intensity that is proportional to the braking force, wherein the braking indication may include a braking rationale corresponding to the braking event in response to determining that the braking force exceeds the threshold braking force.

Lamp for vehicle
A lamp for a vehicle includes a light emitting unit for generating light, and an optical unit for forming a predetermined light irradiation pattern by outputting the light incident from the light emitting unit through a plurality of optical modules each including an incident lens and an output lens. The light emitting unit includes a light source unit, and a plurality of reflectors arranged in a left-right direction to allow the light generated from the light source unit to be reflected to the optical unit, and the optical unit includes a plurality of areas for outputting the light incident from the plurality of reflectors.
Rear lamp unit control system
A rear lamp unit control system for a vehicle including: a first lamp provided on a vehicle body side of a vehicle rear face; a second lamp provided on an opening-closing body side of the vehicle rear face; and a controller configured to control the first lamp and the second lamp. When an opening-closing body of the vehicle is in a closed state, the controller is configured to control the first lamp and the second lamp so that the first lamp and the second lamp turn on at different luminous intensities to each other. In response to the second lamp being in need to be turned on when the opening-closing body is in an open state, the controller is configured to turn the first lamp on at a luminous intensity that is equivalent to a luminous intensity of the second lamp when the second lamp is turned on.
User-configurable indication device for use with an on-demand transport service
An indication device for a vehicle of a service provider associated with a transport service includes an output device and a communication interface for establishing a communication link with a provider device of the service provider. The communication interface can receive, via the communication link, a set of output configuration data associated with a request for the transport service to cause the output device to transition from outputting a default configuration to outputting the output configuration based on a determined state of the service provider or the transport service.

EXTERNAL CLADDING COMPONENT OF OR FOR A VEHICLE AND VEHICLE COMPRISING SUCH AN EXTERNAL CLADDING COMPONENT
An external cladding component of or for a vehicle, by which information can be displayed, is disclosed. The cladding component has a base body with a first surface and a second surface, the second surface facing to the exterior of the cladding component, and an aperture running through the base body, and a light source providing a beam of light, wherein the light source is at least partially arranged within the aperture and protrudes the second surface, or the beam of light is running through the aperture, wherein the beam of light at least partially impinges on an illumination section provided by the second surface.
User-configurable indication device for use with an on-demand transport service
A computer system identifies a service provider from a plurality of service providers to fulfill a request for a transport service from a user device of a user. The service provider operates a vehicle equipped with an indicator device. The computer system obtains an output configuration associated with the user, monitors location information of a provider device of the service provider, detects a state change of the transport service based on the location information of the provider device, and, in response to detecting the state change, communicates with the provider device to cause the indicator device to display the output configuration of the user.
USER-CONFIGURABLE INDICATION DEVICE FOR USE WITH AN ON-DEMAND TRANSPORT SERVICE
A computer system identifies a service provider from a plurality of service providers to fulfill a request for a transport service from a user device of a user. The service provider operates a vehicle equipped with an indicator device. The computer system obtains an output configuration associated with the user, monitors location information of a provider device of the service provider, detects a state change of the transport service based on the location information of the provider device, and, in response to detecting the state change, communicates with the provider device to cause the indicator device to display the output configuration of the user.
