A method and device for determining whether a user is actively driving a motor vehicle or car sick. The sensor device is provided for sensing eye movement of the user and the method includes supplying an artificial intelligence with data originating from the sensor device in order to recognize at least one frequency of eye movements of the user, a frequency of eye movements above a first threshold characterizing a visualization by the user of a passing landscape, and being distinguished from a concentration of gaze of a vehicle driver, and determining a current frequency of eye movements of the user and comparing the current frequency with the first threshold, and if the current frequency is greater than the first threshold, triggering a notification signal for the user.

A cockpit system adjustment apparatus and a cockpit system adjustment method. The apparatus includes: a calibration control module, configured to control a HUD device to display a plurality of AR calibration points to a user; an image obtaining module, configured to obtain a user image generated when the user watches the plurality of AR calibration points; and a processing module, configured to: determine, based on the user image and location information of the plurality of AR calibration points, observation angle information generated when the user watches the plurality of AR calibration points and height information of the user; and determine, based on the observation angle information and the height information, cockpit system configuration information applicable to the user. The cockpit system configuration information includes a HUD device configuration parameter and a seat device configuration parameter.

When a transport is operating, there may be circumstances where the transport may be at least partially compromised and may be less safe than normal. In such situations where the transport is determined as being unsafe, the transport may act to limit the functionality of the transport. An example operation may include confirming that a transport includes at least one component that is not an original or authorized component, and limiting a functionality of the transport when it is determined that the operator of the transport is not associated with the transport.

The invention relates to a server device and a to method for providing a vehicle function via a vehicle-external communication device, wherein the server device is used to detect user interactions with a motor vehicle, wherein a user behavior profile is learned by a learning function of the server device by means of the detected user interactions, and one or more vehicle functions from a predetermined function pool of the motor vehicle are determined via the learning function by means of the user behavior profile, wherein, if an event criterion is present for one of the determined vehicle functions, a communication function of the server device is offered for performing the corresponding vehicle function via the vehicle-external communication device.

A guidance device according to the present invention is installed in a movable body, the guidance device includes: an output device including a display device; an input device that receives an operation performed by an occupant of the movable body for starting each of a plurality of driving assistance functions installed in the movable body; and a guidance control device that determines whether the movable body is in a stopping period or in a traveling period, and allows the display device to display a video for explaining any one of the plurality of driving assistance functions when the movable body is in the stopping period.

A method, medium, and apparatus for educating and reducing risk to inexperienced drivers using vehicles with autonomous navigation systems. Data regarding a driver's past experience with vehicles and operating environments may be used to proactively warn the driver about a potential danger detected or predicted by the vehicle. An autonomous vehicle may prevent the driver from operating the vehicle under unfamiliar circumstances or from causing a collision. Data regarding a driver's past experience with vehicles and the safety features thereof may be used to mitigate risk of injury or property damage by selectively activating safety features in a new vehicle which the driver has not previously driven. Data regarding a driver's past experience with vehicles and safety features thereof may be used to determine a decreased or increased rental rate for a particular vehicle.

Example methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture (e.g., physical storage media) to facilitate application and portability of activity profiles and vehicle cabin configuration are disclosed. An example method includes receiving an activity profile and a user setting associated with a user. The activity profile is one of multiple predetermined activity profiles selectable by or associated with the user. The method includes applying the activity profile and the user setting to the vehicle to adjust at least one characteristic of the vehicle's cabin to facilitate a performance of an activity during navigation of the vehicle and/or while the vehicle is stationary. The activity profile and the user setting may be received during, prior to, or after receipt of data indicative of the user's identity. Applying of at least the activity profile to the vehicle may be performed upon successful authentication of the user.

Examples are directed toward a system and method relating to mobile screening. For example, a mobile screening vehicle includes a passenger scanner that performs security scanning of a passenger on the mobile screening vehicle. The mobile screening vehicle also includes a verification system that verifies, consistent with the security scanning of passengers, that passengers on the mobile screening vehicle are approved to proceed to a secure area of a travel venue.

A vehicle automated driving system 100 comprises a surrounding environment information acquiring device 10, a vehicle information acquiring device 20, a driver information acquiring device 30, a package selecting part 90, a package proposing part 91, an automated driving executing part 92, and a rejection count detecting part 93. The package selecting part determines the driving assistance package based on at least one of the surrounding environment information, the vehicle information, and the driver information, selects the determined driving assistance package if the rejection count of the determined driving assistance package is less than a predetermined threshold value, and selects a driving assistance package different from the determined driving assistance package if the rejection count of the determined driving assistance package is the threshold value or more.

A method for adaptively optimizing an autonomous driving system includes obtaining a driving intent of a driver of a target vehicle, wherein the target vehicle is an autonomous driving vehicle controlled by the autonomous driving system, detecting, based on the driver's driving intent, that a conflict exists between a first driving behavior of the target vehicle controlled by the autonomous driving system and the driver's driving intent, and updating the autonomous driving system such that a driving behavior of the target vehicle controlled by an updated autonomous driving system matches the driving intent.
