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.

An information terminal controlling operations of applications according to a user's operation received via a touch panel includes a display control unit configured to display a first functional icon assigned with a first operation that is activated when the user touches the first functional icon for a predetermined period of time or less, wherein the display control unit displays a second functional icon at a position adjacent to the first functional icon when the user touches the first functional icon for more than the predetermined period of time, and wherein the second functional icon assigned with another operation, which is different from the first operation, that is activated when the user touches the second functional icon.

A personalization setting unit sets enable and disable of a personalization function that allows the set value to be changed to a recommended value for each of the driver assistance functions and for each driver registered in the driver information registration unit. A recommended value calculation unit obtains the recommended value based on driving-related information of the driver including a driving history. A change condition setting unit sorts a plurality of the recommended values into an approval type recommended value that requires an approval of the driver and an automatic change type recommended value that does not require the approval of the driver. A display control unit is able to display an approval screen for the approval type recommended value on a center display that is a display unit, and suspends display of the approval screen while the vehicle is traveling.

A display control device for a vehicle includes a memory, and at least one processor connected to the memory. The processor displays, on a display portion provided at a front side of a driver's seat, plural icons corresponding to a steering switch group that has a touch-sensor-type first switch and a non-touch-sensor-type second switch. The plural icons include a first icon corresponding to the first switch and a second icon corresponding to the second switch. In a case in which a touch operation of the first switch is sensed, the processor displays both the first icon and the second icon, and, in a case in which a non-touch operation of the second switch is sensed, the processor sets both the first icon and the second icon in non-displayed states.

A representation of information on a movably mounted display surface is controlled depending on the available space on the display surface. In order to allow an optimal usability of the display surface a portion of the display surface which is hidden from view of a passenger compartment when the display surface moves physically and a remaining, still visible portion of the display surface, are defined. The remaining, still visible portion, defines the available space on the display surface. In addition, depending on the physical movement of the display surface and a consequential accompanying size change of the visible portion, a layout of the representation of the information is changed such that the information is displayed on the visible portion.

The invention relates to a vehicle (2) comprising: a chassis (4) which is supported on wheels (6, 8) such that it can be driven in a direction of travel (5) for carrying a driver, a steering element (16) for the driver to specify the direction of travel (6), a reproduction element (48) which is arranged in the field of view of the driver in front of said driver when viewed in the direction of travel, and which is designed to display a menu (50) containing a number of menu elements (52) which are arranged to form a grid, and an input interface (36) comprising a pressure plate (40) which is arranged on the steering element (16) comprising a top side (42) and a bottom side which is situated opposite the top side (42), wherein a number of segments (44) which are arranged to form the grid (46) and can be detected in a haptic manner are formed on the top side (42) of the pressure plate (40), and wherein the number of the menu elements (52) corresponds to the number of segments (44) which can be detected in a haptic manner, so that one segment (44), which can be detected in a haptic manner, on the pressure plate (40) is assigned to each menu element (52) of the menu (50).

A motor vehicle control panel includes a front face including a control zone; a printed circuit board; at least one electrically conductive capacitive detection element extending along a vertical axis from the rear surface of the front face to an electrical contact zone of the printed circuit board; a light source mounted on the printed circuit board and able to produce a back lighting light beam toward the control zone through the capacitive detection element; the capacitive detection element also comprises at least one rigid tubular part forming a light guide for the light beam and at least one elastic part made in one piece with the rigid tubular part so as to compensate the clearances between the rear surface and the detection element and between the printed circuit board and the detection element.

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.

The present disclosure provides systems and methods to communicate intent of an autonomous vehicle. In particular, the systems and methods of the present disclosure can receive, from an autonomy computing system of an autonomous vehicle, data indicating an intent of the autonomous vehicle to perform a driving maneuver. It can be determined that the intent of the autonomous vehicle should be communicated to a passenger of the autonomous vehicle. Responsive to determining that the intent of the autonomous vehicle should be communicated to the passenger of the autonomous vehicle, a graphical interface indicating the intent of the autonomous vehicle can be generated and provided for display for viewing by the passenger.

The button structure including a front panel configured to define a body and having a mounting hole formed in a front surface of the front panel directed toward an interior of an occupant compartment, a button unit accommodated in the mounting hole and configured to selectively control various types of AV systems of a vehicle, a detection unit accommodated in the front panel and configured to detect a user's hand, a switch unit configured to operate various types of AV systems of the vehicle under the control of the button unit, and a lighting unit accommodated in a housing and configured to emit light to the button unit in response to a detection signal of the detection unit, in which the detection unit is disposed rearward of the button unit and positioned from the button unit in a direction opposite to the direction toward the interior of the occupant compartment.
