A vehicle control system may include a controller that obtains route information based on a driving route and a location of a vehicle, searches for an uneven road surface on the driving route based on the route information, calculates an impulse based on vehicle information and shape information about the found uneven road surface when the uneven road surface is found, and sets a target speed based on the calculated impulse and user data.

The present disclosure relates to a vibration generating apparatus for a vehicle including a state analysis device that generates analysis information based on the state information, a vibration signal modeling information generation device that generates vibration signal modeling information for the vibration of the vehicle based on the generated analysis information, and a vibration signal generation device that generates a vibration signal based on the generated vibration signal modeling information and driving information of the vehicle.

A vehicle includes a computing device configured to detect an object in an external environment via an external sensor. The computing device determines a trajectory for navigation relative the object based on a trust zone. The trust zone is selected based on a trust parameter. The computing device instructs a display device to render a representation of the object and the trajectory relative the object, and determines whether to modify the trust parameter based on feedback data received in response to navigation.

A vehicle controller device includes a first processor. The first processor is configured to acquire biometric information of an occupant, in cases in which the compromised state is determined to have arisen, to communicate check-up information to check the well-being of the occupant using a report device provided inside the vehicle, to receive a response from the occupant whose well-being is being checked, to notify switchover information to an operation device in order to switch the vehicle from manual driving to remote driving in which the vehicle travels based on operation information in cases in which the response has not been received, and to perform the remote driving in cases in which the switchover information has been received by the operation device and operation-ready information indicating that the remote driving is possible has subsequently been received from the operation device.

Body measurements of a person may be scanned using a camera (e.g., a camera on a mobile phone. Vehicle settings may then be determined based on the body measurements. Example vehicle settings may include one or more of a position of a heads-up display, a position of a pedal, an angle of a backrest, a height of a seat cushion, a tilt of the seat cushion, an extension position of the seat cushion, a position of a lumbar support, a position of a seat side bolster, a position of a headrest, a position of a side mirror, a position of a rear-view mirror, a tilt of a steering wheel, and/or a position of a steering wheel.

A vehicle transfer assistance system includes an adjustment position acquisition unit configured to acquire an adjustment position of a seat element set in a boarded vehicle boarded by a user, a specific distance calculation unit configured to calculate, based on the acquired adjustment position, a predetermined specific distance around a seat of the boarded vehicle formed by the seat element, the specific distance being associated with a physical feature of the user sitting on the seat,

a specific distance storing unit configured to store the user and the specific distance in association with each other, and a converted adjustment position calculation unit configured to calculate a converted adjustment position that is the adjustment position of the seat element for reproducing the specific distance in a transfer vehicle different from the boarded vehicle when the user boards on the transfer vehicle.

The invention relates to a device (20) for assisting a driver of a vehicle to perform physical exercises, comprising:—means (21) for acquiring data representative of a driving context,—means (22) for determining a level of risk, from the acquired data,—means (23) for selecting at least one physical exercise compatible with the level of risk,—means (24) for transmitting a signal indicating to the driver the at least one selected exercise; characterised in that it further comprises—means (21′) for acquiring data representative of a history of exercises performed by said driver, said data coming from a remote storage,—and in that the means (23) for selecting at least one physical exercise also use said data representative of a history in order to select said at least one exercise.

A method and an apparatus for controlling an autonomous driving vehicle are provided. The method includes: receiving environment information sent by an autonomous driving vehicle, the environment information including vehicle exterior environment information; determining whether the autonomous driving vehicle is in an abnormal operation status, based on the vehicle exterior environment information and operation information of an operation executed by the autonomous driving vehicle; and sending a braking control instruction and a data acquisition instruction to the autonomous driving vehicle, in response to determining that the autonomous driving vehicle is in the abnormal operation status, the braking control instruction being used for controlling braking of the autonomous driving vehicle, and the data acquisition instruction being used for acquiring data of a driving recorder in the autonomous driving vehicle.

Exemplary embodiments described in this disclosure are generally directed to systems and methods for detecting alertness of a driver of a vehicle. In one exemplary method, a driver alertness detection system determines whether a driver of a vehicle is susceptible to lagophthalmos. If the driver is susceptible to lagophthalmos, the driver alertness detection system may evaluate an alertness state of the driver by disregarding an eyelid status of the driver and monitoring biometrics of the driver such as, a heart rate and/or a breathing pattern. Alternatively, the driver alertness detection system may evaluate an alertness state of the driver by placing a higher priority on the biometrics of the driver than on the eyelid status. However, if the driver is not susceptible to lagophthalmos, the driver alertness detection system evaluates the alertness state by placing a higher priority on the eyelid status than on the biometrics of the driver.

A vehicle control apparatus operates in various modes, e.g., a normal mode in which plural travel functions of a vehicle are controlled by plural driving functions of a driver; an automatic mode in which all driving functions are performed by the vehicle; an optimization mode in which, when a temporary reduction of driving performance of any of the plural driving functions of the driver is detected, physical stimulation and/or information that makes the driver recognize the temporary reduction of the driving performance is provided to the driver; and an assistance mode in which, when a chronic reduction of the driving performance of any of the plural driving functions of the driver is detected, information on assistance with execution of the driving performance is provided to the driver.
