A vehicle image transmission system has AV devices which are capable of connecting mobile data terminals and are connected in a multistage fashion through wire. Each of the AV devices includes a display unit; a communication processing unit to receive a communication signal transmitted across the AV devices, and to superimpose and transmit uncompressed video data of the mobile data terminal connected to the self AV device through wire; and an AV integrated processing unit to cause the display unit to display at least one of the uncompressed video data of the mobile data terminal connected to the self AV device through wire and the uncompressed video data which is of the mobile data terminal connected to another one of the AV devices through wire, and has been superimposed on the communication signal the communication processing unit receives.

A positioning and securing device positions and secures a display element with respect to a housing, the display element being substantially located in a main extension plane and abutting the housing in a direction perpendicular to the main extension plane. The positioning and securing device is substantially located in another main extension plane parallel to the main extension plane of the display element. The positioning and securing device includes at least one first compression element abutting the display element and also at least one second compression element abutting the housing. A display device of an automobile can include the positioning and securing device.

A display device includes an image display device that includes an image display surface that emits light polarized in one direction and displays an image; and a superimposing display device that includes a transparent light guide plate that is provided overlapping the image display surface, transmits the light emitted from the image display device, and also has grooves constituting a pattern formed thereon, includes a light source that irradiates an end surface of the transparent light guide plate with light, and is switched between display and non-display of the pattern based on lighting and non-lighting of the light source. A polarization direction of the image display device and an extending direction of the grooves intersect at an angle range of 75 to 105. Accordingly, the display device can ensure proper visibility.

An embodiment discloses a vehicle display apparatus including a display panel, a housing in which the display panel is fixed and which is detachably installed on a holder provided on a dashboard of a vehicle, and a keyboard module provided with switches to operate the display panel and detachably coupled to the housing.

The invention relates to a method having the steps: determining whether a mobile device is inserted into a receptacle slot of a motor vehicle component; after the mobile device is inserted into the receptacle slot, controlling a drive unit to move the mobile device into a stowed position; after a predetermined condition of the vehicle has been detected controlling the drive unit to move the mobile device from the stowed position into a removal position in which the mobile device protrudes farther out of the receptacle slot than it does in the stowage position. The invention also relates to a holding fixture for at least one mobile device as well as a motor vehicle having a holding fixture.

A watercraft battery switch system with visual indicator may have a multi-position, physical rotary switch with integrated LED lighting to visually indicate to a watercraft user information about the watercraft's batteries. In an embodiment, the battery switch system may indicate whether the watercraft's batteries are in use and what combination of batteries is currently powering one or more of the watercraft's systems.

A vehicle-mounted display device, a vehicle steering wheel assembly, and a vehicle. The vehicle-mounted display device comprises a decorative piece (1), wherein the decorative piece (1) comprises a connection portion (4), a touch-control display screen (2), a first mounting position (11) and a second mounting position (12); the decorative piece (1) is mounted on a base (13) of a vehicle steering wheel (3) by means of the connection portion (4); the first mounting position (11) is used for mounting the touch-control display screen (2), and the second mounting position (12) is used for mounting a vehicle airbag; and the first mounting position (11) and the second mounting position (12) are arranged side by side on the decorative piece (1), and the first mounting position (11) is located above the second mounting position (12) in the direction in which the first mounting position (11) and the second mounting position (12) are arranged.

A vehicle display device includes a display device that emits a display light. The display device has a display, a circuit board formed of a conductive metal material and on which a light source is mounted, and a backlight case that accommodates the light source and the display. The circuit board includes a main body on which the light source is mounted and which is connected to ground, and an extension portion extending from the main body toward the display. When assembled to the backlight case, the main body is positioned so as to be exposed from the backlight case and the extension portion is positioned in contact with the display so as to connect the display to the ground via the extension portion and the main body.

Embodiments are disclosed for a standardized car interface for cockpit controllers in vehicles. In one example, a system for coupling a vehicle cable for communication with components of an infotainment system, comprises: a housing, a domain controller, and a first connector interface including all connections for the domain controller. In the event that a first domain controller is exchanged for a second domain controller, a collection of user preferences may be transferred between the first domain controller to the second domain controller.
