A control system for a vehicle display, such as a CHMSL, includes a control system module having an OEM connector first portion pre-attached to input wires and OEM connector second portion pre-attached to output wires. In another example, a control system for a vehicle display includes a control system module having a control system module input adaptor for removably connecting the control system module to an OEM first connector portion and a control system module output adaptor for removably connecting the control system module to an OEM second connector portion. Control systems for a vehicle display can be inserted between an input system and a vehicle display without having to identify specific wire harnesses or wires, and without cutting any wires. Different adaptors can be used to insert a single disclosed control system between an input system and a vehicle display in multiple types and makes of vehicles.

An organic light-emitting diode comprising an organic layer sequence, a radiation exit area and an encapsulation. The organic layer sequence comprises at least one radiation-emitting region which generates electromagnetic radiation in the spectral range from infrared radiation to UV radiation during operation. The radiation exit area is structured, so that the electromagnetic radiation has a directional emission profile. The encapsulation forms a seal of the organic layer sequence against environmental influences.

An illuminated trim fitting for a motor vehicle, in particular a trim fitting as a cover fitting of a sealing strip for the window channel of a vehicle door, is intended to provide a high-quality illuminating effect accompanied at the same time by a simple structural design, low manufacturing costs and space-saving means of attachment. In addition, the trim fitting is to differ as little as possible externally from non-illuminated trim fittings. For this purpose there is provision that a light gap is formed between a profiled strip of the trim fitting and the adjacent vehicle outer skin, through which light gap the light emitted by an optical waveguide provided on the rear of the trim fitting can exit to the outside.

A lamp control device may include: a lamp including an LED module having a plurality of LED channels; a converter configured to receive a voltage corresponding to a turn signal, convert the voltage into an output voltage and internal voltage, and supply the output voltage to the LED module; and a controller configured to start counting a preset delay time when the internal voltage is supplied from the converter, and control the plurality of LED channels to sequentially light up at intervals of the delay time.

A mirror reflective element sub-assembly for an exterior rearview mirror assembly of a vehicle includes a mirror reflective element, a heater pad, a mirror back plate, and a blind spot indicator module attached at a rear side of the back plate. The heater pad is adhered at the rear of the reflective element with a light transmitting aperture of the heater pad juxtaposed with a light transmitting aperture of the mirror reflector of the reflective element. The heater pad is adhered at the mirror back plate with its light transmitting aperture juxtaposed with a light transmitting aperture of the mirror back plate. Light emitted by the blind spot indicator module passes through a light-transmitting aperture of the mirror reflector to provide an illuminated icon to a driver of the vehicle when a blind spot detection system of the vehicle detects the presence of another vehicle in an adjacent lane.

This system for detecting the surrounding conditions of a moving body forcibly changes the state of at least one of a plurality of lighting devices (change from an unlit state to a lighting state or a blinking state, change in the emission color, or change in the luminance) installed inside the moving body, if an object to which attention must be paid during traveling of the moving body is detected in the surroundings of the moving body.

A method for operating a control device of a motor vehicle driving by automation. The method includes determining a location of the motor vehicle, and acquiring driving-environment data of the motor vehicle, a control characteristic of the control device of the motor vehicle being formed in such a way that a driving behavior of at least one other road user is influenced in defined manner.

The invention relates to a method, performed by a control device (10), for controlling a vehicle lighting device (100), the vehicle lighting device (100) includes the control device (10); and at least one electronic display unit (20) arranged at one end (12, 14) of a vehicle (1), wherein the control device (10) is arranged to control the at least one display unit (20) to show various types of vehicle lights (22). The method includes: collecting (s101) data relating to the vehicle surroundings; and controlling (s102) the at least one display unit (20) to adapt at least one vehicle light (22) based on the collected data.
