DISPLAY SYSTEM AND DISPLAY DEVICE
A display device includes a housing, an electro-optic layer, a display to display at least a portion of a rearward image, and an actuator to switch the electro-optic layer between first and second postures. In the first posture, the display displays the portion of the rearward image. In the second posture, the reflectivity of the incident light varies between at least first and second values based on at least one of a first illuminance or a second illuminance, and the second value is larger than the first value. In the first posture, the reflectivity of the incident light is equal to or more than the second value. The first illuminance indicates brightness around a vehicle and is detected by a sensor. The second illuminance indicates intensity of light emitted on a front surface of the display device and is detected by another sensor.
SLIDABLE MOUNTING ASSEMBLY FOR A WORK VEHICLE
The present disclosure is directed to a slidable mounting assembly for a work vehicle includes a mounting bracket configured to couple to a frame member of the work vehicle, and a rail coupled to the mounting bracket. The rail includes a channel that extends substantially along a longitudinal axis of the mounting bracket. A portion of at least one slidable member is configured to be removably disposed within the channel of the rail, and the portion of the at least one slidable member is configured to move along the channel of the rail.
VEHICLE SYSTEMS AND METHODS
A vehicle includes an interior cabin and a plurality of modular docking stations fixedly disposed in the interior cabin. Each modular docking station is configured to removably receive one or more modular components. The one or more modular components interchangeably connect to the plurality of modular docking stations to enable relocation of each modular component of the one or more modular components in a desired modular docking station of the plurality of docking stations.
VEHICLE SYSTEMS AND METHODS
A vehicle includes at least one display and a central controller in signal communication with the at least one display. The central controller is configured to detect a plurality of unique user profiles associated with peripheral electronic user devices located within the vehicle, and to establish signal communication with the peripheral electronic user devices located within the vehicle.
System and method for vehicle seat monitoring
Embodiments include a vehicle comprising a seat, a first sensor coupled to the seat for detecting a seat angle, and a processor communicatively coupled to the first sensor and the seat, and configured to output a control signal for correcting the seat angle if the seat angle is not within a predetermined range of values. Embodiments also include a method of correcting a position of a vehicle seat having an occupant seated therein. The method comprises receiving, at a processor, an output detected by a sensor unit coupled to the seat; comparing, using the processor, the output to a predetermined threshold to determine whether an alarm condition exists; if it does, outputting a control signal for correcting the seat position, wherein the sensor unit includes an angular position sensor.
COMBINER RAISING/LOWERING DEVICE AND HEADUP DISPLAY DEVICE
A combiner lifting device includes: a support unit that includes a first pin and a second pin, and supports a combiner; and two side surface portions disposed on both sides of the combiner, respectively. Each of the side surface portions includes a first groove along which the first pin slides, and a second groove along which the second pin slides. The side surface portions support the support unit in such a manner that the support unit is rotatable around the first pin when the first pin is located at an end of the first groove.
Control panel assembly
A control panel assembly for mounting to an interior compartment of a wrecker, the control assembly comprising an extendable arm assembly and a control panel. The extendable arm assembly is mounted to the interior compartment and comprises arms which are foldable relative to each other for adopting a compact configuration and an extended configuration. The control panel is mounted to the extendable arm assembly and comprises wrecker controls. The control panel is movable between an inner position, wherein the extendable arm assembly is in the compact configuration and the wrecker controls are located within the interior compartment, and an outer position, wherein the extendable arm assembly is in the extended configuration and the wrecker controls are located outside the interior compartment.
DISPLAY APPARATUS FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE, METHOD FOR OPERATING A DISPLAY APPARATUS, AND MOTOR VEHICLE HAVING A DISPLAY APPARATUS
A flexible display device, providing an instrument cluster for a motor vehicle, is repositioned by a repositioning device from a stowed position into a use position by bending the display device.
ROTATING HEAD-UP DISPLAY DEVICE
The present invention relates to a rotating head-up display device, which includes a base, a rotating module, a display module and a reflective module,
The fixed portion of the rotating module fixed to the base and the rotating portion of the rotating module fixed to the display module are provided as image rotating mechanism, and the adjustment module is provided to operate for rotating and projecting enlarged images, to thereby conveniently rotate images corresponding to horizontal screen and vertical screen of a smartphone or a tablet.
Control Lever for a Vehicle
A vehicle control lever which has a moveable control panel provided on the lever. The control panel has a plurality of operating elements to control different vehicle functions, wherein the configuration of the operating elements can be re-assigned to control different vehicle functions based on the position of the control panel on the control lever.
