An electric vehicle and a control method of the electric vehicle are provided. The electric vehicle includes a battery, a charger configured to supply power of the battery to a user terminal, an input configured to receive a destination from a user, and a controller configured to calculate an estimated amount of power consumed for traveling of the electric vehicle and an estimated amount of power consumed for supplying power to the user terminal in a case that the electric vehicle travels to the destination. The controller is configured to determine a charging method of the charger based on a current amount of charge of the battery, the estimated amount of power consumed for travelling of the electric vehicle, and the estimated amount of power consumed for supplying power to the user terminal.

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for operating an online on-demand service platform. The systems may perform the methods to: receive confirmation that a service provider has accepted a service request from a service requester; acquire feature information associated with the service provider; acquire surrounding information associated with the service provider; generate identification information of the service provider based on the feature information or the surrounding information for the service requester to identify the service provider; and transmit the identification information of the service provider to a requester terminal associated with the service requester.

In some implementations, a mobile device can transmit a request for traffic information to a server. The traffic information can include movement information including detected stops and durations of detected stops. The traffic information is analyzed to detect traffic patterns that indicate locations of stop signs and/or stop lights. The traffic information is analyzed to determine durations of stops at stop signs and/or stop lights. The durations of stops are associated with a time of day and/or day of the week. In some implementations, navigational routes are determined based stop sign and/or stop light information, including the delays attributable to detected stop signs and/or stop lights.

Systems and approaches relate to, inter alia, providing near real-time route safety and risk information. The systems and approaches may receive a request for a desired destination for vehicular travel. The systems and approaches may then access historical route data for a plurality of potential travel routes to arrive at the desired location and also access near real-time route data for the plurality of potential travel routes. The systems and approaches may further determine a risk index based on the historical route data and the near real-time route data, and present at least one travel route for the vehicle based on the calculated risk index.

A system for controlling the operation of a motorized wheel including a controller configured to control the operation of a motor for driving the motorized wheel, and a handheld device configured to receive inputs associated with the operation of the motor and to transmit instructions corresponding to the received inputs to the controller to control the operation of the motor via a wireless communication medium. The handheld device includes a main portion having a handgrip and a tail portion being biased toward the main portion to form an attachment mechanism by the main portion in cooperation with the tail portion, the attachment mechanism for attaching to a remote surface. The handheld device including a display for displaying information associated with the operation of the motorized wheel.

A vehicle includes a user interface; and a controller configured to determine a predicted place where an image is predicted to have been captured according to an output of a place prediction neural network for the image selected by a user, and control the user interface to perform a route guide to the predicted place, wherein the place prediction neural network is learned from an image tagged with place information.

The disclosure relates to systems and methods for finding a parked vehicle in a parking structure, wherein a parked position of the vehicle is stored in a parking structure, a mobile terminal is coupled to the parking structure in order to provide a radio transmission path, navigation to the parked vehicle is requested from the parking structure using the mobile terminal, and the parking structure produces light trajectories in order to navigate a user to the parked position of the vehicle.

A motor vehicle, comprising at least one linear lighting device for directly or indirectly lighting a vehicle interior. The at least one lighting device extends, at least in some sections, horizontally along at least one component of the motor vehicle. The motor vehicle additionally comprises a position-sensing unit for sensing ego information describing a position and an orientation of the motor vehicle. The at least one lighting device is divided horizontally into a plurality of lighting segments each having a fixed emission profile. The motor vehicle has a control device, configured to: determine a direction of the destination in relation to the motor vehicle; select a sub-group of the plurality of lighting segments comprising at least one lighting segment to be activated; and activate the at least one lighting segment belonging to the sub-group according to lighting brightness or lighting color of the at least one lighting segment.

A device for a motor vehicle for displaying information includes an instrument panel and an information device configured to display information at various locations on the instrument panel so as to be visible to a driver of the motor vehicle. The device also includes a control device which is configured to receive information specifications that are relevant to vehicle management and result from at least one of: a position of the vehicle, a position of the vehicle relative to a roadway, a position of the vehicle relative to a driving lane, and a position of road users in a surrounding of the vehicle. The control device also determines a display location on the instrument panel based on the information specifications, and displays an item of information on the instrument panel at the determined display location.

Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method and an apparatus for providing a visually impaired a route guidance in a subway station by selectively providing the visually impaired at least one of guidance information received from a visible light illumination device installed in the subway station or information on a recommended route from the subway station to a destination and pre-stored route history information, thus informing the visually impaired as needed in a more efficient manner and enabling the visually impaired to arrive at the destination with safety.
