An image display device includes: an external sensor data acquisition unit acquired external sensor data detected at a first time point; an internal sensor data acquisition unit acquired internal sensor data detected at the first time point; a determination unit determined a position of the vehicle at a second time point that is a future time point after a predetermined time has elapsed from the first time point, based on the internal sensor data at the first time point; and a display control unit displayed a monitoring image indicating surroundings of the vehicle on the display unit based on the external sensor data at the first time point, wherein, the display control unit superimposes an object indicating the position of the vehicle at the second time point at the position on the monitoring image corresponding to the position of the vehicle at the second time point.

A computer-implemented method of generating and broadcasting telematics and/or image data is provided. Telematics and/or image data may be collected, with customer permission, in real-time by a mobile device (or a Telematics App running thereon) traveling within an originating vehicle. The telematics data may include acceleration, braking, speed, heading, and location data associated with the originating vehicle. The mobile device may generate an updated telematics data broadcast including up-to-date telematics data at least every few seconds; and then broadcast the updated telematics data broadcast at least every few seconds via wireless communication to another computing device to facilitate alerting another vehicle or driver of an abnormal traffic condition or event that the originating vehicle is experiencing. An amount that an insured uses or otherwise employs the telematics data-based risk mitigation or prevention functionality may be used with usage-based insurance, or to calculate or adjust insurance premiums or discounts.

A traffic signal recognition method and a traffic signal recognition device acquire a result sequence consisting of a plurality of determination results in time-series order obtained by determining a display state of a traffic signal based on a plurality of images of a traveling direction of a vehicle, set a first threshold as a number threshold if a specific determination result which is a latest determination result among the determination results is a determination result of a permission display that allows a passage of the stop line corresponding to the traffic signal, set a second threshold smaller than the first threshold as the number threshold if the specific determination result is other than a determination result of the permission display, and output the specific determination result if a number of determination results identical to the specific determination result is greater than the number threshold.

A route conflict with emergency vehicle identification system includes an infrastructure receiving vehicle location, speed and trajectory information of an emergency vehicle. An automobile vehicle is in communication with the infrastructure and receives the vehicle location, speed and trajectory information of the emergency vehicle. A navigation system of the automobile vehicle operates using global positioning system (GPS) data and preloaded map data to generate a map identifying at least one roadway and a potential conflict on the at least one roadway between projected paths of the emergency vehicle and the automobile vehicle on the at least one roadway. A head-up display or a head-down display of the automobile vehicle visually presents the potential conflict.

A computer-implemented method of updating an auto insurance policy is provided. The method may include (1) determining that a customer's mobile device has a Telematics Application (“App”) installed on it, the Telematics App configured to (i) receive telematics data associated with another vehicle via a wireless communication broadcast; (ii) determine a travel event from analysis of the telematics data received, and (iii) generate a corrective action based upon the telematics data received or travel event determined that alleviates the risk of vehicle collision. The method may also include (2) monitoring, with the customer's permission, an amount or percentage of usage of the Telematics App on the customer's mobile device while the customer is driving in an insured vehicle; and (3) adjusting an insurance policy premium or discount based upon usage of the Telematics App to facilitate rewarding risk-averse drivers and encourage usage of risk mitigation or prevention technology.

The present invention relates to a vehicle display device comprising: a display unit comprising a transparent flexible display disposed in a state of being rolled around a certain axis; a driving unit for adjusting the length of a region, of the transparent flexible display, exposed inside the vehicle; and a processor for controlling the driving unit and controlling the display of a picture on the transparent flexible display.

A processing system including at least one processor executing a traffic management application may detect a proximity to a traffic zone for vehicular traffic, the dual-mode vehicle having two modes of operation, the two modes of operation comprising a surface mode of operation and an aerial mode of operation, and may verify a rule set for vehicular operations within the traffic zone. The processing system may then identify a leader traffic management application from among a plurality of traffic management applications of a plurality of dual-mode vehicles within or near the traffic zone, obtain at least one navigation instruction from the leader traffic management application, and perform at least one of: executing a navigation action in accordance with the at least one navigation instruction, or displaying at least a portion of a permitted route that is in conformance with the at least one navigation instruction.

A vehicle driving assistance apparatus that includes an output unit including an audio output unit configured to output an audio notification and a display unit configured to display a visual image; a monitoring unit configured to monitor an inside status of a vehicle and obtain vehicle internal information from the inside status; a camera configured to capture an outside view of the vehicle and obtain vehicle external information from the outside view; and a processor configured to (i) determine, based on the vehicle internal information and the vehicle external information, a first guide mode from a plurality of guide modes including a general guide mode, a display guide mode, and a sound guide mode, and (ii) provide, to the output unit, driving assistance information associated with the first guide mode is disclosed.

Provided are a real-time traffic flow control and dynamic route guidance system, a parking guidance system using the same, and a method thereof capable of guiding a vehicle distribution and a transportation flow by collecting positional information, destination information, a vehicle moving speed, and the like from each vehicle in real time at one or a plurality of central centers by using an in-vehicle navigator with bidirectional communication and a GPS to dynamically calculate and provide an optimal route of an individual vehicle so as to make a flow of the entire transportation network smooth and perform a control for a transportation network structure through various kinds of traffic control devices installed on roads.

The present techniques disclose, in at least one embodiment, a method of generating route instructions, the method comprising: receiving, at a control system, route requests from a plurality of users; selecting, at the control system, paths from one or more path networks to satisfy the respective route requests, wherein the paths are selected based, at least in part, on or responsive to one or more path criteria for the respective paths; generating, at the control system, route instructions for the respective route requests, wherein the route instructions comprise the selected paths; transmitting, from the control system to the plurality of users, the respective route instructions.
