An autonomous vehicle is configured to detect an active turn signal indicator on another vehicle. An image-capture device of the autonomous vehicle captures an image of a field of view of the autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle captures the image with a short exposure to emphasize objects having brightness above a threshold. Additionally, a bounding area for a second vehicle located within the image is determined. The autonomous vehicle identifies a group of pixels within the bounding area based on a first color of the group of pixels. The autonomous vehicle also calculates an oscillation of an intensity of the group of pixels. Based on the oscillation of the intensity, the autonomous vehicle determines a likelihood that the second vehicle has a first active turn signal. Additionally, the autonomous vehicle is controlled based at least on the likelihood that the second vehicle has a first active turn signal.

A vehicular collision mitigation method includes providing a plurality of cameras, a non-imaging sensor, and a control that processes data captured by the cameras and non-imaging sensor. When the equipped vehicle is traveling forward, and responsive at least in part to determination that the equipped vehicle is approaching an object forward of the equipped vehicle, braking by an automatic emergency braking system of the equipped vehicle is controlled to mitigate collision with the object present forward of the equipped vehicle. Responsive to determination that a following vehicle is following the equipped vehicle and that the determined following vehicle is within a threshold distance from the equipped vehicle and is approaching the equipped vehicle above a threshold rate of approach, braking by the automatic emergency braking of the equipped vehicle is adjusted to mitigate collision at the rear of the equipped vehicle by the determined following vehicle.

A head up display arrangement is fix a motor vehicle having a human driver. A light source emits a light field including a first color such that the light field is visible to the driver as a virtual image. A light sensor detects a second color that is visible to the driver in a forward direction of the vehicle in an ambient environment outside of the vehicle. An electronic processor is communicatively coupled to both the light source and the light sensor. The processor changes the first color in the light field to a third color. The third color is dependent upon the second color.

An assistance system of a motor vehicle, with a camera comprises a camera housing having a first cooling body with first cooling fins, a cap covering the camera housing, wherein the cap has a second cooling body with second cooling fins, and wherein the second cooling fins are arranged at least partially between the first cooling fins.

Methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable media are disclosed for providing a mixed-reality scene. According to one embodiment, a sequence of mixed-reality images is presented to a driver of a first vehicle, the first vehicle oriented in a substantially opposing direction relative to a second vehicle. At least one image in the sequence of mixed-reality images may result from merging (a) an image captured by a forward-facing camera aboard the first vehicle and (b) an image captured by a rear-facing camera aboard the second vehicle. The merging may comprise de-emphasizing an occluded portion of the image captured by the forward-facing camera aboard the first vehicle, the occluded portion corresponding to occlusion by the second vehicle, and emphasizing an unoccluded portion of the image captured by the rear-facing camera aboard the second vehicle.

A paver, in particular a slipform paver, has a machine frame supported by front and rear undercarriages and a paving device for the paving of material. The paver is provided with an apron monitoring device for generating elevation profile data or elevation profile signals describing the elevation profile of the material deposited in the apron of the paving device in a direction transverse to the working direction. A data or signal processing device receives the elevation profile data or signals. The apron monitoring device provides the data needed to allow the material to be spread more evenly across the working width of the paver during the feeding operation by means of a spreading device for spreading the material to be paved in a direction transverse to the working direction and/or to allow the spreading device to be controlled for improved spreading of the material after the paver has been fed.

A vehicular control system includes a camera having an exterior field of view at least rearward of the vehicle and operable to capture image data. A trailer is attached to the vehicle and image data captured by the camera includes image data captured when the vehicle is maneuvered with the trailer at an angle relative to the vehicle. The vehicular control system determines a path of the trailer responsive at least to a steering angle of the vehicle. The vehicular control system detects an object present exterior of the vehicle during maneuvering of the vehicle and the trailer and based at least in part on image processing of captured image data. The vehicular control system plans a driving path for the vehicle that avoids the detected object so that the vehicle and the trailer do not run over or contact the detected object.

Methods and systems for automatic braking for vehicles having a manual transmission are disclosed. An exemplary method includes providing a vehicle with at least one vehicle sensor, at least one actuator, and a controller in communication with the at least one vehicle sensor and the at least one actuator, determining a vehicle speed and an engine speed, receiving sensor data from the at least one vehicle sensor, calculating if the vehicle speed should be reduced based on the sensor data from the at least one vehicle sensor, generating a first control signal if the vehicle speed should be reduced, calculating if the engine speed is below a predetermined idle speed, generating a second control signal if the engine speed is below the predetermined idle speed, and automatically controlling the at least one actuator based on the first and second control signals.

A vehicular camera includes a housing having a front housing portion and a rear housing portion, with the front housing portion including a lens barrel accommodating a lens assembly, and with the rear housing portion including a connector portion configured to connect to a wire harness of a vehicle. An imager circuit board is disposed in an inner cavity of the housing, with an imager disposed at a first side of the imager circuit board and in optical alignment with the lens assembly. The imager circuit board is retained in the inner cavity by a spring element that engages the rear housing portion and urges the imager circuit board relative to the rear housing portion in a direction parallel to a longitudinal axis of the lens assembly and in a direction toward the lens barrel and the lens assembly.

Technologies are generally described for context sensitive display of final delivery information on a consumable delivery vehicle with enroute preparation. A controller may manage fulfillment of orders while the vehicle is enroute by controlling an operation of one or more on-board preparation equipment. The controller may also receive order status information and travel information associated with final delivery destinations. Once the vehicle is at its destination to be used as a hub for final deliveries, one or more displays on the vehicle may display final delivery information to final delivery people based on the status information and the travel information.
