An onboard operation apparatus includes an operation panel having an operation face touch-operated on by a fingertip of a user, an output part outputting an operation signal that corresponds to an operation element touch-operated, a vibration instrument causing the user to feel vibration, a position sensor detecting the touch position by a fingertip, and a vibration control part controlling the actuation of the vibration instrument. The onboard operation apparatus further includes a trace calculation part calculating the movement trace of a touch position, and a prediction part predicting whether the touch position reaches a second operation element within a predetermined time. The vibration control part has an entering vibration control part and a holding control part.

A communication system for a vehicle for a vehicle includes a display device having a screen disposed in a passenger compartment. The display device is in communication with a user interface. The system further includes an authentication system having at least one scanning apparatus configured to capture a biometric data. A communication circuit is configured to communicate with a remote server. A controller is configured to capture the biometric data of a first potential passenger with the at least one scanning apparatus and access a first passenger information comprising a first identification profile from the remote server via the communication circuit. The controller is further configured to authenticate the first potential passenger as at least one of a confirmed passenger and an operator of the vehicle based on the identification profile.

A display device installed in a vehicle includes a display, a reflectance control device, and a control circuit. The reflectance control device is capable of changing a reflectance for incident light. The control circuit controls the reflectance of the reflectance control device. The reflectance control device includes a first part and a second part. The first part is positioned in a first region overlapping the display surface when viewed in a normal direction being normal to the display surface. The second part is positioned in a second region surrounding the first region when viewed in the normal direction of the display surface. The control circuit controls a reflectance of the second part based on at least one of speed information indicating a speed of the vehicle and reverse information indicating whether the vehicle is reversing.

The disclosure includes embodiments of a lane change timing indicator for a connected vehicle. In some embodiments, a method includes determining a time and a path for an ego vehicle to change lanes. In some embodiments, the method includes displaying, on an electronic display device of the ego vehicle, one or more graphics that depict the time and the path.

The present application discloses a method and apparatus for controlling display in a screen projection scenario, a device, a medium and a program product, relating to the technical fields of autonomous driving, Internet of Vehicles, intelligent voice, and screen projection in artificial intelligence. The specific implementation is: receiving a voice interaction instruction corresponding to a voice application; if a first page corresponding to a first application in at least one non-voice application has been projected onto a screen of a terminal device, adding to-be-displayed content corresponding to the voice application to the first page to obtain a to-be-projected page corresponding to the first application; and projecting the to-be-projected page onto the screen of the terminal device. The above process can reduce a delay in displaying an image projected on the screen.

A vehicular blind spot detection system for alerting a driver of a motor vehicle to an object in a blind spot zone of the vehicle includes a sensor configured to detect the presence of an object proximate to the vehicle in the blind spot zone. A first indicator is disposed on an outside rearview assembly and is configured to indicate that an object is in the blind spot zone of the vehicle. A controller is operably coupled with at least one of the sensor and the first indicator, wherein the controller may be activated and deactivated by a user. A second indicator is disposed proximate the first indicator and is configured to indicate that the controller has been deactivated.

A vehicular camera monitoring system a driver-side camera, a driver-side video display screen disposed at a driver-side cabin region of an interior cabin of the vehicle, a passenger-side camera and a passenger-side video display screen disposed at a passenger-side cabin region of the interior cabin of the vehicle. Upon completion of a parking maneuver of the vehicle, and until a period of time elapses following powering down of the vehicle upon completion of the parking maneuver of the vehicle, the driver-side video display screen displays driver-side video images of a driver-side region sideward of the driver side of the vehicle and rearward of the vehicle and the passenger-side video display screen displays passenger-side video images of a passenger-side region sideward of the passenger side of the vehicle and rearward of the vehicle.

A monitoring system for an automobile includes at least one illumination source that is configured to project a first illumination type towards a driver location. At least one imaging device is configured to capture the first illumination type at the driver location. A visor assembly includes a stowed position and an articulated position. The visor assembly in the articulated position obscures at least part of the first illumination type from the driver location. An electro-optic device is located in the visor assembly and is configured to switch between a transmissive state and a darkened state. The first illumination type passes through the electro-optic device in the transmissive state and the darkened state, and a second illumination type passes through the electro-optic device in the transmissive state but is blocked in the darkened state.

A display device is configured to be installed in a vehicle. The display device includes: a display on which a rear image of the vehicle is configured to be displayed; a reflectance control device configured to change a reflectance of incident light; and a control circuit configured to control the reflectance. The reflectance control device includes a first part and a second part, with the first part being positioned in a first region overlapping a display surface of the display when viewed in a normal direction, and the second part being positioned in a second region surrounding the first region when viewed in the normal direction. When the rear image of the vehicle is not displayed, the control circuit controls the reflectance control device such that a second reflectance of the second part is lower than a first reflectance of the first part.
