A mobile advertisement system mounted on a back window of a vehicle using suction cups is presented according to aspects of present disclosure. In certain embodiments, the mobile advertisement system connects wirelessly to a mobile advertisement server, sends its GPS location updates periodically to mobile advertisement server, receives advertisements and delivery instructions from mobile advertisement server in response to the GPS location updates sent, displays advertisements on the display screen of the mobile advertisement system according to the corresponding delivery instructions when at least one automobile is detected, and transmits delivery confirmations to mobile advertisement server after each advertisement is displayed according to the corresponding delivery instructions. A video camera detects whether there are any automobile behind, and mobile advertisement system will not display advertisements when there is no automobile behind. brightness of advertisement display is in directly proportional to light intensity outside detected by a light sensor.

Disclosed techniques include in-vehicle drowsiness analysis using blink-rate. Video of an individual is obtained within a vehicle using an image capture device. The video is analyzed using one or more processors to detect a blink event based on a classifier for a blink that was determined. Using temporal analysis, the blink event is determined by identifying that eyes of the individual are closed for a frame in the video. Using the blink event and one or more other blink events, blink-rate information is determined using the one or more processors. Based on the blink-rate information, a drowsiness metric is calculated using the one or more processors. The vehicle is manipulated based on the drowsiness metric. A blink duration of the individual for the blink event is evaluated. The blink-rate information is compensated. The compensating is based on demographic information for the individual.

The disclosure is generally directed to in-vehicle advertisement systems and methods. An example method executed by processor of a vehicle may include determining an attention availability index of a driver of a vehicle and determining a first presentation duration of a first advertisement based on the attention availability index. In one scenario, the attention availability index of the driver may be determined by applying an inverse relationship to a concentration index associated with driving the vehicle. The first advertisement is presented over the first presentation duration, via an advertisement presentation device in the vehicle. In another scenario, the attention availability index of the driver may be compared to a threshold value. Based on the comparison, a second presentation duration for a second advertisement may be determined and the second advertisement presented via the advertisement presentation device in the vehicle.

By way of example, a method for carrying out an advertisement by a connected vehicle is provide for a specific event. Initially, information on the specific event that is to be carried out by the connected vehicle is received, and in response to receiving the information on the specific event, a request is sent by the connected vehicle to participate in the specific event. Then, driving route guidance to a starting location for the specific event is received and also received is the driving order of a plurality of connected vehicles that are going to participate in a parade proceeding for the specific event.

This technology relates to a display mounted messaging system. The display mounted messaging system may include a light emitting diode (LED) display attached to a housing of a sensor. The housing of the sensor may rotate. The display mounted messaging system may also include an LED controller which is configured to selectively activate and deactivate at least one LED in the LED display, to provide a message in the direction of an intended recipient.

An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a plan creation section. The plan creation section creates a plan of movement of a mobile object to a destination of the mobile object in association with advertisement effectiveness on the basis of the destination and a desired time of arrival at the destination, the advertisement effectiveness being provided by advertisement content played back outward from the mobile object. This makes it possible to create the movement plan enabling the advertisement vehicle to arrive at the destination by the desired arrival time, and achieving a highest degree of the advertisement effectiveness. This results in being able to achieve a high degree of advertisement effectiveness in advertisement using the mobile object.

A connected vehicle configured to detect presence of people near the connected vehicle via one or more proximity sensors is disclosed. The connected vehicle may be configured to reproduce one or more audio advertisements via external displays and/or external speakers of the connected vehicle. The one or more advertisements may be reproduced in such a way that the one or more advertisements reproduced may provide the people with an alert message informing them of the presence of the connected vehicle, in place of imaginary engine sounds, for safety of people outside the connected vehicle.

Systems and methods for displaying corresponding content for vehicle services using a distributed set of electronic devices are provided. For example, a computer-implemented method includes obtaining data associated with a vehicle service instance. The vehicle service instance is associated with a request for a vehicle service for a user. The method includes determining, based on the data associated with the vehicle service instance, a first advertisement content item for a display device positioned on an exterior of a vehicle assigned to the vehicle service instance and a second advertisement content item for a user device associated with the vehicle service instance. The method includes communicating data that initiates the display of the first advertisement content item for the display device positioned on the exterior of the vehicle and data that initiates the display of the second advertisement content item for the user device.

A rider interface for a vehicle includes a data processor configured to facilitate communication between a rider using the rider interface and the vehicle, the vehicle and the rider interface communicating location and orientation of the vehicle. An augmented reality system with a display is disposed to facilitate presenting an augmentation of content in an environment of the rider using the rider interface, the augmentation responsive to a registration of the communicated location and orientation of the vehicle, wherein at least one parameter of the augmentation is determined by machine learning on at least one input relating to at least one of the rider and the rider interface.

Disclosed in some examples, are devices, methods, systems, and machine readable mediums that provide for automated goods exchange between autonomous vehicles while the autonomous vehicles are still in motion. This may be used to efficiently ship packages long distances as well as to transfer goods to consumers. This allows shippers to transfer goods from one truck to another without having to stop and unload the truck, decreasing costs by limiting human involvement and improving efficiency. Likewise, mobile merchants, such as food trucks, may sell to consumers in cars without having to stop to perform the exchange, increasing the convenience to consumers.
