In particular, when the shaft rotates from a reference position by the rotational force, the elastic part is compressed, and when the rotational force is removed, the elastic part is relaxed to return the shaft to the reference position.

A control method according to the present disclosure includes: obtaining (receiving) position information (a danger warning signal) indicating a target position where a target object is present; determining whether the vehicle is driving autonomously or is being driven manually; when the vehicle is determined to be being driven manually, inspecting whether the target position is located within a predetermined region of a travel route of the vehicle based on the position information; when the target position is located within the predetermined region, changing the light transmission state of the headlight from a first state to a second state; and when the vehicle is determined to be driving autonomously and/or the target position is not located within the predetermined region, maintaining the light transmission state of the headlight.

An electrical device controller includes a processor, and a memory for storing a program executed by the processor. The processor controls the electrical device in multiple operation modes including an automatic mode which automatically changes the operation state of the electrical device and a stop mode which stops the electrical device, controls the electrical device in an operation mode specified with an operating member operated by an occupant when the vehicle is manually driven, controls the operation state of the electrical device in the automatic mode regardless of the operation mode specified with the operating member when the vehicle is autonomously driven, and sets the operation mode of the electrical device at least temporarily to the stop mode when the operation mode specified with the operation member is switched to the stop mode from an operation mode other than the stop mode, when the vehicle is autonomously driven.

This application provides a method and an apparatus for planning a vehicle trajectory, an intelligent driving domain controller, and an intelligent vehicle. One example method includes: An intelligent driving domain controller of a first vehicle obtains a first trajectory of the first vehicle, obtains a second trajectory of at least one second vehicle based on a first communications technology, and then determines trajectory planning of the first vehicle based on the first trajectory and the second trajectory of the at least one second vehicle.

The disclosure relates to the intelligent vehicle driving technologies, and in particular, to a method for transferring control over a vehicle in an automotive electronic system, an automotive electronic system and a computer-readable storage medium for implementing the method, and a vehicle including the automotive electronic system. An automotive electronic system according to an aspect of the disclosure includes a first control domain and a second control domain that are communicatively coupled to each other, where the first control domain includes a first memory, a first domain controller, and a first computer program stored on the first memory and executable on the first domain controller, and the first computer program is executed to: generate, in response to an event that triggers a transfer of control over a vehicle, a request to transfer the control over the vehicle; and display, via the second control domain as a first transmission channel or a second transmission channel, the request to transfer the control over the vehicle, where the first transmission channel takes priority over the second transmission channel in being used to display the request to transfer the control over the vehicle, and where the second transmission channel is physically independent from the second control domain.

This application discloses an intelligent vehicle control method. An intelligent vehicle control system obtains a driving mode, a driving style model, and a target speed of an intelligent vehicle at a current moment, then determines a speed control instruction based on the driving mode and the driving style model, and sends the speed control instruction to an execution system of the intelligent vehicle. This provides an intelligent vehicle control method with high comfort and good experience.

A control device for controlling autonomous driving of a vehicle, the control device includes a processor and a memory storing instructions. The instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the control device to perform operations including: switching a control content in the autonomous driving of the vehicle based on a position of the vehicle.

A vehicle includes a transparent display provided on the dashboard to face the front of the driver and provided to be able to descend inside the dashboard or ascend above the dashboard, an input device provided to obtain a user input, and a controller configured to adjust an ascending height of the transparent display and to adjust transparency of the transparent display, according to a driving mode selected by the user input.
