IN-VEHICLE DISPLAY
An illustrative example embodiment of a display includes a cover, a plurality of display panels that collectively establish a display area, and a polarizer between the display panels and the cover. The polarizer is coextensive with the entire display area.
Vehicle port device
Provided is a vehicle port device that includes a lid (38) that selectively closes an opening (44) of a port accommodating space facing outwardly on a vehicle body, a first display unit (52) positioned in the port accommodating space, and a second display unit (54) configured to indicate a failure in the port module and positioned in the port accommodating space. The lid includes a translucent part (46A) opposing the first display unit and an opaque part (46B) opposing the second display unit in a closed state of the lid.

SUN VISOR HEAD UP DISPLAY
A sun visor assembly for a vehicle according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a visor configured to be mounted in a vehicle and pivotable between a first position and a second position. A display is mounted on the visor. The display is pivotable between a stowed position and a viewing position relative to the visor.
Vehicle display apparatus and vehicle having the same
A vehicle display apparatus that includes: a sensor unit that is configured to obtain a vehicle surrounding image and sense an appearance change of a vehicle; a display unit that is configured to display the vehicle surrounding image that includes a vehicle image showing at least a portion of a vehicle appearance; and a processor that is configured to: obtain, from the sensor unit, information on the appearance change of the vehicle, based on the information on the appearance change of the vehicle, generate the vehicle surrounding image to show the appearance change of the vehicle, and control the display unit to display the vehicle surrounding image is disclosed.
Systems and methods for detecting an object
Systems and methods are provided for detecting an object in front of a vehicle. In one implementation, an object detecting system includes an image capture device configured to acquire a plurality of images of an area, a data interface, and a processing device programmed to compare a first image to a second image to determine displacement vectors between pixels, to search for a region of coherent expansion that is a set of pixels in at least one of the first image and the second image, for which there exists a common focus of expansion and a common scale magnitude such that the set of pixels satisfy a relationship between pixel positions, displacement vectors, the common focus of expansion, and the common scale magnitude, and to identify presence of a substantially upright object based on the set of pixels.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING FUEL LEVEL BASED ON FUEL CONSUMPTION AND REFILL DATA
Embodiments include systems and methods of reporting the fuel level in a fuel tank of a vehicle. The method includes receiving a fuel consumption curve and a fuel refill curve, receiving a first fuel level value and a second fuel level value from a fuel level sensor; and determining whether the vehicle is consuming fuel or receiving fuel based on a change between the first fuel level value and the second fuel level value. In response to determining that the vehicle is consuming fuel, the method further includes determining a fuel gauge display value based on the second fuel level value and the fuel consumption curve. In response to determining that the vehicle is receiving fuel, the method further includes determining a fuel gauge display value based on the second fuel level value and the fuel refill curve. The fuel gauge display value is presented on a fuel gauge display.

Lane change assist apparatus for vehicle
A driving support ECU initializes a target trajectory calculation parameter at a start of LCA; calculates, based on the target trajectory calculation parameter, a target trajectory function representing a target lateral position which is a target position of an own vehicle in a lane width direction in accordance with an elapsed time from the start of LCA; calculates a target control amount based on the target trajectory function; when a steering operation by a driver has been detected, again initializes the target trajectory calculation parameter; and recalculates the target trajectory function based on the target trajectory calculation parameter.
Filling device
A filling device includes a filling pipe to extend into a liquid container for fluidic connection to the liquid container, a filling head operatively connected to the filling pipe, a venting pipe to vent the liquid container, the venting pipe having an open venting pipe section at an end thereof, and an indicator member configured to visually indicate a filling condition of the liquid container. During a filling sequence of the liquid container in a condition in which the liquid container is not full of liquid, the indicator member is to be impinged upon by outflowing air in the venting pipe at a force such that the indicator member assumes a first recognizable condition. During a filling sequence of the liquid container in a condition in which the liquid container is full of liquid, the indicator member is not impinged on by outflowing air in the venting pipe at a force such that the indicator member assumes a second recognizable condition.
