Interactive skin for wearable
A wearable may be provided with or configured to provide interactive skin. The interactive skin may be configured for accepting touch input from a user. The interactive skin may include one or more flexible layers and may include or be mounted under a transparent display cover layer such as a layer of clear glass or plastic. Interactive skin may include a touch-sensitive layer that allows a user to provide touch input to the wearable. Display pixels on interactive skin may be used to display visual information to the user. The interactive skin may be configured for detecting a condition of at least one wearable and generating an output function in response to the detected condition.
Lighting strip and lighting device
A device comprising a flexible printed circuit strip is disclosed. The flexible printed circuit strip comprises a plurality of first sections connected to a plurality of second sections. The plurality of first sections are bendable in at least a first axis relative to the plurality of second sections. The plurality of first sections comprise a connector to house at least one light emitting element. The plurality of second sections comprises a protrusion with an opening between two adjacent second sections such that the protrusion is bendable in at least two axes. The plurality of second sections comprise a connector to connect an electrical power supply.
Composite plastic material and lamp structures made thereof
The present disclosure provides a lamp structure including a shell made of a thermal plastic material with improved heat conductivity. In some embodiments, the thermal plastic material includes a thermal conductive filler comprising nylon, calcium carbonate, metal power, glass fiber, and paraffin wax.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VEHICULAR LIGHT FIXTURES
A lighting device is provided for controlling the photometric distribution of light emitted by two or more LEDs. The lighting device may be integrated with a control system of the vehicle and may be controlled by a remote controller. The lighting device may be capable of being operated in one or more modes of operation based on operating conditions, user input, or both. Operating conditions may include vehicle conditions, environmental conditions, and user conditions. The controller may operate a software application to enable the user to modify, control, or otherwise regulate any mode of operation or other feature of the lighting system.
ILLUMINATION DEVICE AND MOUNTING METHOD
An illumination device for a vehicle, having a housing in which a functional module and an actuating unit are arranged, wherein the actuating unit has a drive apparatus and a linear actuating element that is coupled to the functional module so that the functional module can be pivotably moved about a horizontal and/or vertical axis, wherein the drive apparatus is placed in contact with at least one circuit board integrated in the illumination device in a mounted position of the actuating unit so that both the drive apparatus of the actuating unit and the functional module are electrically connected by the same circuit board to an electrical system of the vehicle.
VEHICLE
A leaning vehicle or a straddled vehicle, including a vehicle body, a light source unit, a light using device, an optical fiber cable, an electrical power supply unit, a plurality of electrical units, and an electrical cable. The vehicle body includes a seat and a body cover. The optical fiber cable has a supported portion disposed along, and supported by, a trunk portion of the electrical cable, and an upstream portion connecting the light source unit and the supported portion without being supported by the trunk portion. The supported portion and the upstream portion are partially disposed within an in-body covered region, which is at least one of a region closer to a vehicle center than an outermost surface of the body cover is, or a region positioned further in a downward direction than an uppermost portion of the seat is, both being invisible from an outside of the vehicle.
Electronic Load To Install In The Power Supply of a Vehicle Lamp
In an embodiment an electronic load for installation in a power supply of a vehicle lamp includes a first connection node connected to two first connection sections adapted to be connected between respective corresponding connection sections of a first line carrying a voltage potential, a second connection node connected to two second connection sections adapted to be connected between respective corresponding connection sections of a second line carrying a reference potential, wherein a difference between the voltage potential and the reference potential comprises a supply voltage configured to be supplied to the vehicle lamp and a current sink circuit coupled between the first and second connection nodes, the current sink circuit configured to cause a substantially constant current flow independently of a time-varying supply voltage from at least one of the first connection sections to at least one of the second connection sections.
Glass fastening and sealing systems
A glass fastening system includes a glass portion, a support structure defining a recess, a first adhesive layer disposed on an exterior surface of the glass portion facing the recess in the support structure, a second adhesive layer disposed within the recess of the support structure, and a fastener having a first portion secured to the first adhesive layer and a second portion extending away from the first portion and into the second adhesive layer to secure the glass portion to the support structure.
Taillight enhancement harness for a towed vehicle
A taillight enhancement harness for providing a lighting enhancement to a taillight of a towed vehicle. The harness interconnects a first lighting system of a towing vehicle and a second lighting system of the towed vehicle. A lighting enhancement circuit is interposed between a first connector, configured to couple to the towing vehicle, and a second connector, configured to couple to the towed vehicle. The lighting enhancement circuit is configured to activate a taillight of the towed vehicle in a strobe operation. After a predetermined temporal period, the taillight resumes a normal indication operating mode for the taillight.
Accessory optical path translator
A lighting system for specialty lighting, which may be attached to a motor vehicle with a window (e.g., glass, plastic, etc.) that is light transmissive. The lighting system may include one or more light assemblies attached to the window in an interior of the vehicle. The lighting system may include an optical path translator to direct the light emitted out the window of the vehicle and limit the amount of light reflected into the cabin of the vehicle. The lighting system may provide concealed electrical connections for power, signal, and data, as well as concealment for one or more additional aspects of the lighting system.
