Systems and methods to control a radar system to perform cross-traffic management in a vehicle with a trailer involve determining a location of the trailer behind the vehicle, and adjusting an initial field of view of the radar system to a modified field of view that excludes the location of the trailer. One or more other vehicles are detected with the radar system having the modified field of view. A cross-traffic alert is implemented based on the detecting the one or more other vehicles.

The present disclosure provides a rear cross collision detection system and method. The rear cross collision detection system includes an obstacle detection unit configured to receive an electromagnetic wave reflected from a reflection point of an obstacle in order to detect the position of the obstacle, an identity determination unit configured to, when a plurality of obstacles is detected by the obstacle detection unit, determine whether the plurality of obstacles is the same object based on the positions or speeds of the detected obstacles, and a collision determination unit configured to determine the possibility of a collision with the plurality of obstacles detected by the obstacle detection unit based on the result of the determination by the identity determination unit.

A sensor has an antenna. The antenna includes a radiation source and a wave guide. The radiation source is formed on a substrate. The wave guide internally propagates electromagnetic waves radiated from the radiation source and radiates the electromagnetic waves as a beam. The wave guide has a radiation-side opening in which a first direction and a second direction are orthogonal to each other, and the second direction is longer than the first direction. In a cross-sectional shape of the beam, perpendicular to a radiation direction of the beam radiated from the wave guide, a first direction and a second direction are orthogonal to each other, and the second direction is narrower than the first direction.

A sensing system for a vehicle includes at least one radar sensor disposed at the vehicle and having a field of sensing exterior of the vehicle. The at least one radar sensor includes multiple transmitting antennas and multiple receiving antennas. The transmitting antennas transmit signals and the receiving antennas receive the signals reflected off objects. Multiple scans of radar data sensed by the at least one radar sensor are received at a control, and a vehicle motion estimation is received at the control. The control, responsive to received scans of sensed radar data, detects the presence of one or more objects exterior the vehicle and within the field of sensing of the at least one radar sensor. The control, responsive to the received scans of sensed radar data and the received vehicle motion estimation, matches objects detected in the scans and determines angles toward the detected objects.

Smart car operations provide information or entertainment content for a person by detecting when a person is alone in a car, adjusting a speech recognizer in the car to focus capturing speech from the person's position in the car; playing content in the car as requested by the person; when the person exits the car and enters a building, transferring the speech recognizer from the car to a building speech recognizer along with a current play state of the content; and resuming playing the content on a device in the house on request without interruption.

A wireless sensor system and method detects when a tailgate, door, or other object on a vehicle moves from a closed position to an open position and then generates an alarm. The wireless sensor system includes a wireless sensor and a transceiver module. The transceiver module is plugged into a cigarette lighter of the vehicle to receive its power. The wireless sensor detects a movement of an object on a vehicle from a first position to a second position. The wireless sensor transmits data indicating the object moved from the first position to the second position to the transceiver module. The transceiver module receives the transmitted data and determines whether to cause an alarm to be generated based, at least in part, on the transmitted data. When an alarm is to be generated, the transceiver module causes the alarm to be generated.

The present invention provides for a genetically modified host cell capable of producing isopentenol and/or 3-methyl-3-butenol, comprising (a) an increased expression of phosphomevalonate decarboxylase (PMD) (b) an increased expression of a phosphatase capable of converting isopentenol into 3-methyl-3-butenol, (c) optionally the genetically modified host cell does not express, or has a decreased expression of one or more of NudB, phosphomevalonate kinase (PMK), and/or PMD, and (d) optionally one or more further enzymes capable of converting isopentenol and/or 3-methyl-3-butenol into a third compound, such as isoprene.

A travel control device for a host vehicle determines whether or not the presence of the vehicle prevents an external object, having the intension of moving from a second side lane to a first side lane, from crossing a host vehicle lane. Upon determining that the presence of the host vehicle prevents the external object from crossing the host vehicle lane, the travel control device moves the host vehicle to create a space for the external object to cross the host vehicle lane.

A driving assistance system for reversing a mining haulage vehicle, particularly for reversing a haul truck into a defined target position in a loading or dumping area, wherein the driving assistance system is configured that the target position is determined based on a logged loading tool position of the earthmoving machine, wherein steering instructions are provided to a light indicator when the transmission of the haulage vehicle is shifted to reverse.
