Crowd-sourced driver grading
An video analysis computing system driving analysis may include a camera associated with a first vehicle and having a viewing angle capable of capturing a video of one or more other vehicles in proximity to the first vehicle, a first memory location communicatively coupled to the camera, wherein the first memory location stores video data captured by the camera, and an evaluation module including a processor executing instructions that cause the processor to: evaluate the captured video stored in the first memory location to determine whether a driving event performed by a second vehicle has occurred, assign, in response to an identified driving event performed by the second vehicle, a driving event rating to a video showing the identified driving event, wherein the driving event rating may be calculated, at least in part, using a crowd-sourced driving event rating obtained after posting the video to a social network.
Vehicle imaging system
A vehicle imaging system for a vehicle including a rear viewing device configured to be located at a lateral side of the vehicle. The vehicle imaging system including an image capturing unit and a display unit. The image capturing unit is configured to take images of surroundings of the vehicle, is located in the proximity of the rear viewing device, includes an optical axis and a field of view, and is configured such that the field of view of the image capturing unit generally extends rearward until a forward limit of a field of view of the rear viewing device. The display unit is configured to communicate with the image capturing unit and displays the images, and is adapted to be located in an interior of the vehicle.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DISPLAYING VEHICLE DRIVING INFORMATION
A system for displaying vehicle driving information may include: first and second image acquisition devices configured to capture an image of a first side on which a driver seat is located and an image of a second side which is the opposite side of the first side, respectively; first and second display devices configured to display the captured images of the first and second image acquisition devices, respectively; first and second BSD devices and configured to sense side-rear vehicle information; and a control device configured to recognize the location and vehicle distance of the side-rear vehicle by analyzing the side-rear vehicle information detected by the first and second BSD devices, determine whether to issue a BSD warning, and control BSD warning icons of the ego vehicle and the side-rear vehicle to be displayed as an OSD of the images displayed on the first and second display devices.
Vehicle periphery monitoring apparatus
A vehicle periphery monitoring apparatus includes a camera, an electronic control unit and a display unit configured to display the display image. The ECU is configured to generate a display image of an external environment based on image information from the camera such that the display image includes a first display image from a first predetermined viewpoint from which one of right and left side surfaces of a host vehicle and a rear portion or a front portion of the host vehicle are obliquely seen from above. The ECU is configured to generate and output the display image including the first display image in at least any one of a predetermined first traveling status of the host vehicle, a predetermined periphery status of the area on either side of the host vehicle, and a state in which a turn signal lever is manipulated.
Apparatus for providing vehicular environment information
An apparatus for providing vehicular environment information, includes acquiring with at least one sensor vehicular environment data that is external to a vehicle. The at least one sensor comprises at least one camera, and the vehicular environment data comprises image data. The vehicular environment data is provided to a processing unit. The processing unit determines vehicular environment information. The determination of the vehicular environment information comprises use of the vehicular environment data. At least part of the image data is displayed on a display monitor on the basis of the vehicular environment information. The processing unit causes the display monitor to display the at least part of the image data.
Usage of automotive virtual mirrors
A system, method, and computer readable medium may include technology to enable optimal usage of automotive virtual mirrors. A gaze detector monitors a driver's eyes to determine if the driver is looking in the direction of a virtual mirror. If the driver is not looking in the direction of virtual mirror, all virtual mirrors are placed in a low operational mode. If the driver is looking in the direction of a virtual mirror, the virtual mirror being viewed is placed in a high operational mode and all other virtual mirrors are placed in the low operational mode.
DRIVER-ASSISTING SYSTEM FOR AN INDUSTRIAL VEHICLE
A driver-assisting system for an industrial vehicle comprising: a first camera mounted on a vehicle cab for viewing an area in front of the vehicle; an image processing unit operatively connected to said first camera for receiving image data from said first camera; a display unit operatively connected to said image processing unit for displaying image to a user based on said image data; a control unit operatively connected to said first camera for modifying operating parameters of said first camera; wherein the first camera is adapted to provide a wide-angle field of vision, and in that the field of vision of said first camera relative to the vehicle can be adjusted by the control unit.
Vehicular vision system
A vehicular vision system includes a video display screen and a video processor operable to process captured video image data captured by a rearward-viewing camera at the vehicle. The video display screen includes a left display region at a left portion, a right display region at a right portion, and a middle display region that spans between the left and right display regions. The video display screen is operable to use the left and right display regions to display video images derived from a respective portion of captured image data. When the video display screen is displaying video images at the right or left display region that are derived from the respective portion of captured image data, the video display screen does not display video images representative of the other portion of captured image data at the other display regions.
Collision avoidance system for vehicle
A vehicular collision avoidance system includes a forward-viewing camera, a rearward-viewing camera, a rearward-sensing radar sensor and an electronic control unit. The vehicular collision avoidance system detects vehicles present forward and/or rearward of the equipped vehicle. Responsive to at least one selected from the group consisting of (i) data processing of image data captured by the rearward-viewing camera and (ii) data processing of sensor data captured by the rearward-sensing radar sensor, the vehicular collision avoidance system determines potential of collision with the equipped vehicle by a detected other vehicle and/or determines that impact with the equipped vehicle by a detected other vehicle is imminent.
CONSTRUCTION MACHINE
A construction machine capable of suppressing deterioration in work efficiency includes an angle detecting device that detects a relative angle between a lower travelling body and an upper slewing body, a travel lever that can be manipulated to make the lower travelling body travel, a display, a directional information generating unit that generates information related to a travelling direction of the lower travelling body based on a detected result of the angle detecting device, and a display controller. The display controller causes the display to display an arrow image indicating the travelling direction of the lower travelling body generated by the directional information generating unit when the travel lever is manipulated and does not permit the display to display the arrow image when the travel lever is not manipulated.
