A communication assembly is disclosed. The communication assembly includes a radio frequency (RF) module configured to obtain RF data from an antenna of a vehicle, a camera module configured to obtain image data of a scene exterior to the vehicle, and a communication unit, operatively connected to the RF module and the camera module, configured to embed the RF data in a first frequency band of an analog signal, embed the image data in a second frequency band of the analog signal, and transmit, via a single physical medium communication link, the analog signal to a vehicle communication unit of the vehicle. The vehicle communication unit is configured to demodulate the analog signal to retrieve the RF data and the image data for providing, to an electronic control module (ECU) of the vehicle.

A method for a driver assistance system of a vehicle. The driver assistance system can control the vehicle at least partially automatic by an autopilot function. In the method, an activation state of the autopilot function is determined and a display device of the driver assistance system is activated depending on the activation state of the autopilot function.

A mobile robot comprising: a vision system, the vision system comprising a camera and two or more light sources each arranged to provide a level of illumination to an area surrounding the mobile robot; wherein the two or more light sources are arranged to illuminate separate areas surrounding the robot corresponding to different sections of an image captured by the camera, and the level of illumination provided by each of the light sources is independently adjustable.

To recognize an obstacle such as a working face which may be touched by a revolving upperstructure including a height position thereof at the time of a swing control. A plurality of first cameras 13 for forming bird's eye views which photograph obliquely lower parts of directions different from each other are arranged in a revolving upperstructure 3, a composite bird's eye view 20 is displayed on a display 15, second cameras 16R, 16L for photographing through images including corner parts from a rear end of the revolving upperstructure 3 to side parts within a visual field range are arranged in lower part positions of a swing frame 3a of the revolving upperstructure 3 so as to rotate following swing of the revolving upperstructure 3, and corner part through images 30R, 30L are displayed on the display 15 so as to be superimposed on the composite bird's eye view 20.

A vehicle camera system and method for operating a vehicle camera system comprising a vehicle camera with communication capabilities. The vehicle camera operating in conjunction with other components to provide information to users. The vehicle camera system compiles information from multiple components into a single repository of video recordings with information, such as location information, vehicle status and diagnostic information, alert information and other information.

A display mirror providing a rear image of a vehicle through a mirror and a display panel constituting an inside mirror, may include a housing fixedly located in a windshield glass, a mirror located in the housing, a display panel located on a back of the mirror and receiving a signal of a rear camera to display a rear image, and a tilting lever adjusting an angle of a reflective surface of the mirror to be converted into a day mode and a night mode, wherein a first switch is provided on an end portion of the tilting lever to display the rear image on the display panel, and a second switch is provided to apply power to the display panel as the tilting lever is tilted.

A sound classification system for a vehicle includes a plurality of microelectromechanical system (MEMS) microphones disposed at the equipped vehicle and sensing sounds emanating from exterior of the equipped vehicle. A sound processor is operable to process outputs of the MEMS microphones to classify a source of sensed sounds. The sound processor processes the outputs to determine the direction and distance of the source of the sensed sounds relative to the equipped vehicle. The MEMS microphones are one of (i) incorporated in respective ones of a plurality of exterior viewing cameras of the equipped vehicle and (ii) attached at a surface of at least one window of the equipped vehicle.

A vehicle safety control apparatus using cameras includes a first camera configured to photograph light and shade of a current object during running, a second camera configured to photograph a color of the current object during the running, an image processing unit configured to perform image processing on first current object image data captured by the first camera and second current object image data captured by the second camera, a recognition unit configured to recognize the first and second current object image data on which the image processing unit has performed the image processing, a storage unit configured to cause the recognized data to match preset reference object-specific data and separately store the data matching the preset reference object-specific data; and a control unit configured to receive the recognized data and deliver a storage command to the storage unit.

Disclosed herein is a control method of an electronic apparatus. The control method of an electronic apparatus includes: calculating an average speed of a vehicle when a specific event occurs; generating an object indicating a relationship between the calculated average speed and an event speed corresponding to the specific event; and outputting the generated object through augmented reality.

A vehicular control system includes a camera, a controller having a processor that processes captured image data, and an exterior temperature sensor. Responsive, at least in part, to a temperature input from the temperature sensor, the controller switches processing of captured image data between (a) a normal processing mode and (b) a cold weather processing mode. Responsive to the temperature input being indicative of the exterior temperature being below a first threshold temperature, the controller processes captured image data in the cold weather processing mode to enhance blockage detection of frost or snow or ice at the camera. When the controller is operating in the cold weather processing mode, the controller switches processing of captured image data to the normal processing mode responsive to the temperature input being indicative of the exterior temperature being above a second threshold temperature that is greater than the first threshold temperature.
