Vehicle signal control system
A vehicle control system includes, among other things, one or more functional warning units positioned in various positions in a vehicle. A central controller is configured to generate a desired state of the functional warning units and encode the desired state into a packet. Each of multiple remote controllers is functionally connected to at least one of the functional warning units. A functional connection between the central controller and the multiple remote controllers is configured to transmit the encoded packet from the central controller to each of the remote controllers. The remote controllers are configured to parse the desired state of each of the functional warning units in the encoded packet and set the state of each of the functional warning units based on the parsed encoded packet.
Portable emergency vehicle demonstration system
A portable emergency vehicle demonstration system can include an enclosure having a base and a cover mounted thereto, wherein the cover is movable between an opened position and a closed position, a set of functional warning units arranged within the enclosure, wherein the arrangement of the set of functional warning units represents an emergency vehicle, and a controller arranged within the enclosure and configured to operate the set of function warning units according to a set of predetermined signaling patterns.

Signaling system for fastening to a roof of a motor vehicle and motor vehicle
A signaling system provides at least one emergency services signal for fastening to a roof of a motor vehicle. The signaling system includes a housing that is directed in the travel direction and has a low aerodynamic resistance. The signaling system furthermore has a signaling unit that is disposed within the housing and is configured for providing emergency services signals. The housing has at least two housing sides, wherein one housing side faces the roof, and the other housing side faces away from the roof. The side that faces the roof is adapted to the shape of the roof. The housing side that faces away from the roof corresponds to the suction side of an airfoil profile.
Traffic safety sign assembly
A traffic safety sign assembly for guiding traffic around a vehicle parked on a shoulder of a roadway includes a sign that is positionable on a vehicle that is parked on a shoulder of a roadway. In this way the sign is visible to oncoming traffic on the roadway. Arrow indicia are printed on the sign to direct oncoming traffic away from the vehicle. A plurality of sign light emitters is each integrated into the sign to emit light outwardly from the sign. In this way the sign light emitters enhance visibility of the sign for the oncoming traffic. The plurality of sign light emitters is strategically arranged on the sign to indicate a preferred direction of travel. In this way the sign light emitters visually communicate the preferred direction of travel to the oncoming traffic.

Systems And Methods For Facilitating Safe School Bus Operations
Systems and methods for facilitating safe vehicle operations, such as reducing illegal passings, avoiding possible collisions, and assisting road users around a vehicle are provided. The system uses a smart algorithm to perform negotiations between the vehicle, e.g., a school bus, and other road users, e.g., road vehicles, bicycles, scooters, etc. The method may include capturing image data of the surroundings of the school bus to identify violations within a proximity of the school bus such as children jay-walking and vehicles illegally passing the school bus when the stop arm is raised. The captured data may be recorded and shared with the school bus, other road users, or local authorities.
