A vehicle lighting fixture and system where the fixture includes light emitting diodes (LEDs) and a lens. A controller monitors vehicle conditions and sends lighting commands to activate one or more LEDs based on the vehicle conditions. The LEDs can be red-green-blue (RGB) LEDs capable of emitting various different colors. The lighting commands can include illumination color, intensity level and on/off. The LEDs can be arranged in groups, where each group is separated from the other groups. The lighting commands can include a blink/steady designation, where blink causes the group to blink in the illumination color, and steady causes the group to steadily light in the illumination color. A blink frequency can control the blink rate in the illumination color. The lighting commands can include an intensity level; where when a group is activated it is illuminated in the illumination color at the intensity level.

Systems, apparatus and methods implemented in algorithms, software, firmware, logic, or circuitry may be configured to process data and sensory input to determine whether an object external to an autonomous vehicle (e.g., another vehicle, a pedestrian, a bicyclist, etc.) may be a potential collision threat to the autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle may include a light emitter positioned external to a surface of the autonomous vehicle and being configured to implement a visual alert by emitting light from the light emitter. Data representing a light pattern may be received by the light emitter and the light emitted by the display may be indicative of the light pattern. The light pattern may be selected to gain the attention of the object (e.g., a pedestrian, a driver of a car, a bicyclists, etc.) in order to avoid the potential collision or to alert the object to the presence of the autonomous vehicle.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for controlling an unmanned vehicle, an electronic device and a computer readable storage medium. In this method, the computer device of the unmanned vehicle determines occurrence of an event associated with physical discomfort of a passenger in the vehicle. The computer device also determines a severity degree of the physical discomfort of the passenger. The computer device further controls a driving action of the vehicle based on the determined severity degree.

A vehicle may include a movable roof, a sensor supported by the roof, and an actuator for selectively raising and lowering the roof.

Aspects of the disclosure provide for displaying notifications on a display of an autonomous vehicle 100. In one instance, a distance from the vehicle to a destination of the vehicle or a passenger may be determined. When the distance is between a first distance and a second distance, a first notification 650 may be displayed on the display. The second distance may be less than the first distance. When the distance is less than the second distance, a second notification 660 may be displayed on the display. The second notification provides additional information not provided by the first notification.

A method, computer program product, and computing system for monitoring one or more machine vision sensors to obtain perception information concerning one or more third-party vehicles proximate an autonomous vehicle; identifying one or more vehicle shapes within the perception information, thus defining one or more detected vehicles shapes; generating proximate object display information that locates the one or more detected vehicles shapes with respect to the autonomous vehicle; and rendering the proximate object display information on a visual display system, thus confirming the perception of the one or more third-party vehicles by the autonomous vehicle.

The invention is directed to a vehicle top that can be used with an SUV or other jeep-like vehicle with a removable top. The disclosed top includes a transparent portion, which include a sunroof comprising one or more panels. The top can further include interior lighting elements that allow the interior of the vehicle to be illuminated as desired by the use. The lighting elements can be customizable with regard to placement, color, light pattern, intensity, and the like. The lighting element and sunroof can be controlled wirelessly through the user’s phone or other device or can be manually operated.

A housing for connecting a light bar to a vehicle comprises at least a front surface comprising a lighting aperture, a first side surface, a second side surface opposite the first side surface, and a top surface defining a hollow interior. The housing further comprises at least a first bracket and a second bracket located within the hollow interior. The first bracket is configured to connect a first interior face of the housing to a first side of the light bar while the second bracket is configured to connect a second interior face of the housing to a second side of the light bar. At least a portion of at least one of the front surface, the first side surface, the second side surface, the first bracket, and/or the second bracket is configured to connect to a surface of the vehicle.

A mount for inverted light has a back, two spaced apart feet beneath the back, two tabs outwardly from the back, each tab having two pieces, an arcuate shroud opposite the back and an adjustment mechanism for the tabs. Opposite the back, the feet and tabs have a low friction surface limiting engagement of the mount with door glass. The adjustment mechanism includes knobs turning rack pinion gearing and knobs ratcheting one piece of a tab outwardly from the other. Beneath the shroud, the mount has two rests that receive a light attached to them aimed downward from the shroud. The mount has an elongated form for a generally centered position along the width of a door's window.
