System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to adaptively communicating notices to passengers within a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes in response to receiving a notice about an occurrence of an event, determining a viewing orientation of a passenger in the vehicle according to at least one electronic input that indicates information about a physical position of the passenger within the vehicle. The event is an incident associated with the vehicle for which the passenger is to be informed. The method also includes selecting at least one alerting device from available communication devices in the vehicle according to the viewing orientation by determining which of the available communication devices correspond with the viewing orientation of the passenger. The method further includes controlling the at least one alerting device to communicate the notice to the passenger about the occurrence of the event.

A display generator, after activation of a display area assigned to at least one function in the interior of a vehicle, holographically displays virtual operator control elements assigned to the at least one function in the display area assigned to the at least one function in the interior of the vehicle. A detection and sensing device detects and senses gestures by a vehicle occupant which are to be interpreted as operator control inputs upon the virtual operator control elements being actuated in a manner desired by the vehicle occupant. A computing unit interprets the gestures as operator control inputs and initiates an implementation, corresponding to the operator control inputs, of the at least one function.

A laser-based warning system for a vehicle, the system including: a laser device located on an inner face of a ceiling of a vehicle frame; and a controller configured to generate an emergency message and send the message to the laser device, wherein the laser device is configured to receive the emergency message and to shape a laser based on the message to irradiate the laser-based message onto a front, left, right, rear glasses of the vehicle selectively.

A vehicle shade assembly includes a vehicle body structure, a cover supporting structure, a cover material, an electronic display and a controller. The vehicle body structure defines an opening with a transparent material installed within the opening. The cover supporting structure is installed to the vehicle body structure adjacent to the opening. The cover material is supported to the cover supporting structure and is movable from a closed orientation covering the opening and the transparent material and an open orientation exposing the opening and the transparent material. The electronic display is installed to the cover material for movement therewith. The controller is configured to operate the display to display content thereon.

A display device for vehicles is provided. The display device includes: a base, a connecting assembly and a display module. The connecting assembly is disposed on the base by a hinge. The hinge has a pivot of which the center is defined as a central axis. A connecting groove is disposed on the back side of the display module, such that the display module can be connected to the base when the connecting assembly is slidingly inserted into the connecting groove. The connecting assembly can slide in the opposite direction to be removed from the connecting groove of the display module.

A transparent display apparatus disposed inside a vehicle is disclosed. the transparent display apparatus comprising: a transparent display panel configured to transmit light from a first surface to a second surface; a rotation part coupled to one end of the transparent display panel; an anchoring part fixed to a ceiling of the vehicle, wherein the anchoring part includes a motor coupled to at least a portion of the rotation part and configured to rotate the rotation part about a longitudinal direction of the rotation part; an interface unit mounted inside the transparent display panel and/or the vehicle to receive a user command; and a control unit operatively connected to the interface unit and the motor, and configured to perform control so that the transparent display panel is switched to a plurality of modes based on a user command received from the interface unit.

A motor vehicle has a vehicle interior in which a flexible OLED display device is arranged, To create a high degree of individualization with a simple design, the flexible OLED display device is part of an interior panel and at least one electrical servomotor is provided and adjusts the flexible OLED display device for the representation of spatial structures.

A display apparatus for vehicle comprising: a display panel including a first surface designed to have at least one area that is flexibly deformed and display images and videos and a second surface that is a rear surface of the first surface; a housing installed on a head lining of the vehicle and having an internal space which the display panel is drawn into or out of; a plurality of rollers disposed inside the housing to guide a direction in which the display panel is drawn in or out; a driving unit providing force for the display panel to be drawn in or out; and an arm assembly coupled to at least a portion of the second surface to support the stiffness of the drawn-out display panel.
