Provided herein is an apparatus for displaying a forward blind spot situation. The apparatus for displaying a forward blind spot situation includes a front camera capturing a blind spot of a driver, a display device displaying image information on the blind spot of the driver captured through the front camera, and a processor controlling the image information on the blind spot of the driver captured through the front camera to be seamlessly output at a position of a driver's gaze.

Disclosed are a driver assistance apparatus and a control method for the same. The driver assistance apparatus includes at least one camera configured to generate a main image by capturing an image of a periphery of a vehicle, a communication unit configured to receive a plurality of sub images generated by at least one other vehicle, and a processor configured to: select at least one of the sub images based on a predetermined condition or user input; and to generate an expanded image using the main image and the selected sub image.

A method or system is capable of detecting operator behavior (“OB”) utilizing a virtuous cycle containing sensors, machine learning center (“MLC”), and cloud based network (“CBN”). In one aspect, the process monitors operator body language captured by interior sensors and captures surrounding information observed by exterior sensors onboard a vehicle as the vehicle is in motion. After selectively recording the captured data in accordance with an OB model generated by MLC, an abnormal OB (“AOB”) is detected in accordance with vehicular status signals received by the OB model. Upon rewinding recorded operator body language and the surrounding information leading up to detection of AOB, labeled data associated with AOB is generated. The labeled data is subsequently uploaded to CBN for facilitating OB model training at MLC via a virtuous cycle.

The present technology relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and an information processing system by which a user can easily recognize a position of a sensor having a defect from among sensors mounted on a vehicle. Position-related information about a relative position or direction with respect to a vehicle is acquired, and a combined image obtained by combining a defect image representing a position of the sensor having a defect from among the sensors mounted on the vehicle with a vehicle image reflecting the vehicle is displayed in response to the position-related information. The present technology can be applied so that a user can recognize a sensor having a defect from among the sensors mounted on a vehicle.

A method for detecting objects ejected from a cabin of a vehicle includes generating window image data of a vehicle window opening of the vehicle with a camera mounted on the vehicle; and processing the window image data with a controller operably connected to the camera to generate ejected object data corresponding to at least one object ejected from the cabin through the vehicle window opening. The method further includes associating the ejected object data with occupant data of an occupant of the vehicle with the controller.

Rear side alarm device of vehicle and method thereof is provided. A vehicle rear side alarm device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a sensor to detect a rear side of a host vehicle; a display to display a detected object; and a controller communicatively connected to the sensor and the display. Here, the controller is configured to: determine whether the object detected by the sensor is a two-wheeled vehicle; if the detected object is a two-wheeled vehicle, control to alarm the approach of the two-wheeled vehicle through a display; and expand a preset rear side alarm area to the side of the host vehicle so that the expanded alarm area partially overlaps a tail of the host vehicle.

A method for displaying video images includes providing a plurality of cameras and an ECU at the vehicle. The cameras are in communication with one another via a vehicle network and the ECU is in communication with the cameras via respective data lines. During a driving maneuver of the vehicle, one of the cameras is designated as and functions as a master camera and other cameras are designated as and function as slave cameras. During the driving maneuver, automatic control of exposure, gain and white balance parameters of the designated master camera is enabled, and the exposure, gain and white balance parameters of the designated master camera are communicated to the designated slave cameras via the vehicle network. A composite image is displayed that provides bird's eye view video images derived from video image data captured by at least the designated master camera and the designated slave cameras.

In an autonomous driving vehicle information presentation apparatus, based on outside information, an identification unit searches for a person present around a host vehicle and identifies whether the person extracted by the search matches a user of the host vehicle. When a result of the identification by the identification unit indicates that the person extracted by the search matches the user of the host vehicle, the information presentation unit presents information by using a preset presenting state to a specific person, as a presentation target, identified to match the user of the host vehicle by the identification unit with an exterior display apparatus provided at a front portion of the host vehicle.

A vehicular vision system includes a control disposed at a vehicle. A camera is disposed at an in-cabin side of the vehicle windshield and views forward of the vehicle. During a driving maneuver of the vehicle, the vehicular vision system, responsive at least in part to an output of a radar sensor, detects an object that is located within the radar sensor's field of sensing and outside of the camera's field of view and determines movement of the object relative to the vehicle. During the driving maneuver of the vehicle, information pertaining to movement of the detected object toward an area within the field of view of the camera is provided to the control. During the driving maneuver, and responsive to the provided information, and with the detected object present within the camera's field of view, the vehicular vision system determines that the detected object is an object of interest.

An energy storage robot configured to be used to power electric underground equipment, the energy storage robot including a propulsion system being arranged to move the energy storage robot, an energy storage unit, a control unit being connected to the propulsion system and the energy storage unit. The energy storage unit is connectable to the electric underground equipment for powering the electric underground equipment and the control unit is arranged to communicate a level of energy of the energy storage unit to a coordinating module or another energy storage robot.
