A method for correcting a state of charge of a state of charge display of a traction battery of an electrically driven vehicle. The method includes detecting an attentiveness parameter of a driver of the vehicle with respect to the state of charge display, and step correction of the state of charge displayed on the state of charge display if the attentiveness parameter undershoots an attentiveness threshold value.

Provided are systems and methods for facilitating a user to configure and retrieve personalized settings for a fully designable information panel in a driving apparatus. The information panel system may be configured to store a plurality information panel configurations. Different information panel configurations may correspond to different users of the driving apparatus. Users may be identified when inside the driving apparatus by capturing their biometric information. Following identification, an information panel configuration corresponding to the identified user may be retrieved and configured on a display device. The displayed information panel configuration may include a user customized graphic. The user customized graphic may be modified by the identified user with a color, shape, or text modification. The modification may be dependent on different metrics regarding vehicle operation or performance.

In one aspect, embodiments can enable a passenger to connect his/her computing device wirelessly to a transportation apparatus to a display within the transportation apparatus. The portable device may be so connected outside the transportation apparatus, for example at the user's office or the user's home. After the passenger connects the computing device to the display in the transportation apparatus, the user may be enabled to control the computing device by providing inputs through the display. In some embodiments, the user may be enabled to control one or more in-vehicle devices through the computing device after it is connected to the passenger display.

Systems and methods for a vehicle including an eye tracking device. The systems and methods use input from the eye tracking device. The systems and methods are configured to communicate with a driver based on input from the eye tracking device.

A steering wheel for a vehicle is provided. The steering wheel includes a steering wheel rim with an operating member formed as a ring segment of the steering wheel rim and has an exterior shell with at least a first shell part and a second shell part. The exterior shell is configured to at least partially rotate from an initial position around a framework structure. At least one first switch is switchable to at least partially rotate the exterior shell from the initial position around the framework structure. The exterior shell is in the initial position, at least one of the first shell part and the second shell part are actuated toward or away from the framework structure to switch at least one second switch.

A head up display arrangement for a motor vehicle includes an image source providing images. Optics are then positioned to provide a reflection of the images such that the virtual images are perceived by a driver of the vehicle to be aligned with a road that is visible through a windshield of the vehicle. A force-detecting device detects a magnitude of a force exerted on the driver in a lateral direction from turning of the vehicle. An electronic processor adjusts, based on the magnitude of the force exerted on the driver, the virtual images and/or a position of the HUD Optics.

A gaze safety module is described herein. In an embodiment, the gaze safety module may comprise a gaze area classifier, a monitoring needs estimator, and a display control. The gaze area classifier may be configured to: receive first sensor data from a sensor; and determine a first gaze classification of a driver based, at least in part, on the first sensor data. The monitoring needs estimator may be configured to: receive driving condition data; and determine one or more gaze requirements. The display control may be configured to: pause playback of a media player based, at least in part, on the first gaze classification and the one or more gaze requirements; and determine a first value for a resume type variable based, at least in part, on the first gaze classification and the one or more gaze requirements.

An automatic adjuster, when carrying out an AR superimposed display using a head-up display in a vehicle like a car, is able to perform eye position adjustment for the AR superimposition automatically without increasing a burden to a driver by controlling, according to the eye position information acquired from an eye position detector, in such a manner as to shift the driver's eye position in accordance with the reference position of the superimposed display, which serves as a position where the AR superimposition is performed appropriately, and by controlling a movable part of the driver's power seat the driver of the vehicle takes.

A system for displaying a dashboard display in a vehicle includes a vehicle data bus interface for communicating with vehicle subsystems of a vehicle management system, a dashboard display module, and a dashboard store for storing a dashboard display definition. In one example, the dashboard display module obtains from the vehicle bus information regarding which of the plurality of vehicle subsystems are enabled, and transmits the information regarding which of the plurality of vehicle subsystems are enabled to a device external to the vehicle management system.

A head-up display device includes a housing, a projection unit projecting light representing an image, and an optical unit leading the light projected from the projection unit to a windshield of a vehicle. The optical unit includes a magnifying optical unit attached to the housing and reflecting the light toward the windshield, a screen attached to the housing and reflecting or transmitting the light toward the magnifying optical unit, and an incident angle changing unit changing an incident angle of the light that goes incident on the screen.
