Vehicular driver monitoring system
A vehicular driver monitoring system includes an interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly and a camera disposed at the interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly behind and viewing through an electrochromic mirror reflective element into the interior cabin of the vehicle. Supplemental sources of near infrared illumination are integrated into the mirror assembly that, when powered to emit near infrared light, illuminate at least the driver-side front seating area within the interior cabin of the vehicle. Presence of the camera is not readily apparent to an occupant of the vehicle. The camera at least (a) views the driver-side front seating area of the equipped vehicle and (b) views a passenger-side front seating area of the equipped vehicle. The driver of the equipped vehicle is monitored via processing at the processor of image data captured by the camera.
Personal Navigation System Haptic Device
Embodiments of the present invention allow users to navigate to a destination by way of haptic feedback. An embodiment employs: (1) a processor executed software application, and (2) one or more vibrating nodes worn by a user. In such an embodiment, upon providing a destination via an application, the application sends commands to the nodes to vibrate along a specific signature to indicate, through the sense of touch, navigation commands to the user.
Personal navigation system haptic device
A method and system for providing navigation commands allows users to navigate to a destination by way of haptic feedback. The method and system employ: (1) a processor executed software application, and (2) one or more vibrating nodes worn by a user. Upon providing a destination via an application, the application sends commands to the nodes to vibrate along a specific signature to indicate, through the sense of touch, navigation commands to the user.
Augmented navigational control for autonomous vehicles
An augmented navigational system is provided for autonomous vehicles. The augmented navigational system may further be coupled to an artificial intelligence system that provides object recognition and image recognition. A machine learning system may provide further feedback as to whether the pickup and drop off location was appropriate, and whether the recognition of one or more objects was appropriate.
Integrated transportation services for vehicle-sharing fleet
A method and system are disclosed and include determining, in response to receiving an integrated transportation request, a route based on (i) at least one of a location of a vehicle and a user, and (ii) a destination associated with the integrated transportation request. The method also includes determining a vehicle portion and a secondary transportation apparatus portion of the route based on at least one of (i) the location, (ii) the destination, (iii) an integrated transportation history associated with the user, (iv) traffic information retrieved from a mapping application, and (v) operating information of a secondary transportation apparatus. The method also includes displaying the vehicle portion while the vehicle is operating. The method also includes transmitting the secondary transportation apparatus portion to at least one of a portable device associated with the user and the secondary transportation apparatus.
VEHICLE ENTRY DETECTION
Certain aspects of the present disclosure are generally directed to apparatus and techniques for event state detection. One example method generally includes receiving a plurality of sensor signals at a computing device, determining, at the computing device, probabilities of sub-event states based on the plurality of sensor signals using an artificial neural network for each of a plurality of time intervals, and detecting, at the computing device, the event state based on the probabilities of the sub-event states via a state sequence model.
Safety and performance integration device for non-autonomous vehicles
A method, apparatus, and system for integrating a non-autonomous vehicle into a transit environment populated with autonomous vehicles. An autonomous vehicle network integration apparatus is disclosed which collects data over a wireless network regarding a vehicle's route and surroundings, including nearby fully and partially autonomous vehicles. The apparatus is configured to analyze data and dynamically determine a range of influence, within which it communicates with vehicles to suggest driver actions and inform self-driving vehicle behavior.
Customized indoor and outdoor navigation maps and routes for autonomous vehicles
Customized navigation maps of an area are generated for autonomous vehicles based on a baseline map of the area, transportation systems within the area, and attributes of the autonomous vehicles. The customized navigation maps include a plurality of paths, and two or more of the paths may form an optimal route for performing a task by an autonomous vehicle. Customized navigation maps may be generated for outdoor spaces or indoor spaces, and include specific infrastructure or features on which a specific autonomous vehicle may be configured for travel. Routes may be determined based on access points at destinations such as buildings, and the access points may be manually selected by a user or automatically selected on any basis. The autonomous vehicles may be guided by GPS systems when traveling outdoors, and by imaging devices or other systems when traveling indoors.
Method for motion-synchronized AR or VR entertainment experience
Systems and methods for synchronizing movement, such as the movement of a vehicle with an augmented reality (AR) or virtual reality (VR) story-telling or narrative experience is provided. For example, the AR or VR experience can be adapted to justify the movement of the vehicle based on trip criterion, such as a navigational path upon which the vehicle has embarked. Alternatively, trip criterion, such as the navigational path upon which the vehicle will embark, can be adapted to comport with one or more events of the AR or VR experience.
Multimedia system of a shared bicycle
The present disclosure relates to a multimedia system of a shared bicycle. The multimedia system includes a lock main control unit, a cloud server, and a display unit. The display unit includes a navigation module, a multimedia module, and a mode switching module. The multimedia module includes a data switching sub-module. The mode switching module is configured to switch to a navigation mode or a multimedia mode. The data switching sub-module is configured to switch multimedia information. The display unit broadcasts the multimedia information to achieve advertising purposes. The navigation module provides navigation for a user, which is convenient for the user to travel and can avoid a dangerous behavior of the user. In addition, the data switching sub-module controls the multimedia system to broadcast different multimedia information in different time periods, different environments and different regions, thereby further improving the user experience.
