A management method and apparatus for vehicle safety, and a computer storage medium. The method includes: acquiring at least one of meteorological data and environmental data, the environmental data is collected by an on-board device on a vehicle; determining a weather warning type based on at least one of the meteorological data and the environmental data; determining whether the weather warning type meets a predetermined warning condition; determining vehicle insurance data matched with the vehicle, based on at least one of the meteorological data and the environmental data as well as driving data of the vehicle; and displaying an identifier associated with the vehicle insurance data on at least one of a mobile device and an on-board display screen of the vehicle, the mobile device is associated with the vehicle when a predetermined operation is detected on the mobile device.

A method for increasing safety during the operation of a device. Multiple widgets are displayed on a graphical user interface. Each widget is assigned an operating function of the device; each operating function is selectable by selecting the corresponding widget via an input gesture of a user. Data relating to a current situation is detected, and it is determined whether increased attention is required in the current situation based on the data. If increased attention is required, the widgets are arranged such that each widget is assigned a simple input gesture which differs greatly from input gestures assigned to other displayed widgets in order to increase safety during the operation of the device.

A system for providing situational recommendations within a vehicle includes a system controller in communication with a plurality of onboard sensors, the plurality of onboard sensors adapted to collect real-time data related to a location of the vehicle and operating conditions of the vehicle, a database in communication with the system controller adapted to store data related to past actions and data related to a location of the vehicle and operating conditions of the vehicle when such past actions occurred, the system controller including a driver specific machine learning model adapted to predict a desired action based on the real-time data related to the location and operating conditions of the vehicle and data from the database, the system controller further adapted to initiate the predicted desired action, receive input from an occupant within the vehicle, and update the driver specific machine learning model.

Systems/techniques that facilitate customizable safe touch control of vehicle operation are provided. In various embodiments, a system can enable generation of virtual icons representative of hardware-based components of a vehicle on a display. In various aspects, the system can receive touch input to activate the virtual icons and operate the associated hardware-based components of the vehicle through complex touch patterns that ensure touch activation and touch coordinates satisfy safety regulations and requirements. In various instances, the system can enable customization of the layout, visual representation, and labeling of the virtualized icons based on user preference through an interface on the vehicle display.

An input display device includes a display configured to display an image, a capacitive touch panel attached to the display, a knob that is at least one three-dimensional operation unit on a front face of the touch panel, and a sensing unit configured to measure an electrostatic capacitance of the touch panel and sense an operation on the touch panel based on the measured electrostatic capacitance. The sensing unit senses the rotation amounts of all the fingers touching the knob, and determines that the rotation operation on the knob has been performed when a sensed rotation amount of any of the fingers reaches a threshold value.

A method for computer-supported processing of the vicinity of a vehicle includes detecting the surroundings of a vehicle and providing surroundings data by a sensor system. The surroundings data may be processed to ascertain, for pre-specified sections of the surroundings of the vehicle, a specific distance to objects detected by the sensor system. A collision probability between one of the detected objects and the vehicle is ascertained depending on a predicted and/or actual vehicle movement determined using odometric data. Moreover, the surroundings of the vehicle are depicted on an output unit where, for at least one of the pre-specified sections, distance information between such at least one pre-specified section of the surroundings and the detected object is output using at least one of a graphic element and an acoustic element that includes collision information about a collision probability.

The present disclosure provides systems and methods to obtain feedback descriptive of autonomous vehicle failures. In particular, the systems and methods of the present disclosure can detect that a vehicle failure event occurred at an autonomous vehicle and, in response, provide an interactive user interface that enables a human located within the autonomous vehicle to enter feedback that describes the vehicle failure event. Thus, the systems and methods of the present disclosure can actively prompt and/or enable entry of feedback in response to a particular instance of a vehicle failure event, thereby enabling improved and streamlined collection of information about autonomous vehicle failures.

A parking assistance method according to the present disclosure performs automated travel of a vehicle based on a parking operation performed in past. The parking assistance method includes acquiring a teacher path based on a travel path in the parking operation performed in the past, acquiring vehicle operation information regarding an operation of at least one vehicle accessory of a blinker and a side mirror in the vehicle during the parking operation performed in the past, storing teacher data including the teacher path and the vehicle operation information, and reproducing an operation of the vehicle accessory caused by the operation acquired during the parking operation performed in the past, based on the teacher data in automated parking in which the vehicle is moved along the teacher path.

The operating unit for a vehicle comprises a housing (12) having an operating panel (18) on its front side (14). The operating panel (18) is supported in the housing by a support member (24), which is elastically mounted at its rear end and in the front area in or on the housing (12), respectively. A rear mounting member (30) having an elastically twistable strut (38) is used for this purpose at the rear end of the support member (24). Said strut (38) is substantially parallel to an imaginary connecting line (44) between the lateral ends (22) of the operating panel (18).

The vehicle includes a display (navigation screen and HUD) and a processor that causes the display to display panoramic images indicative of the surroundings of the vehicle, such that the vehicle is captured from above the vehicle. The panoramic image includes an icon that is superimposed on the panoramic image and indicates the positions of the plurality of wheels, and a recommended route that is superimposed on the panoramic image and indicates a route through which the plurality of wheels is desired to pass.
