Replaceable vehicle light

The present invention may include a replaceable vehicle light including a lamp body, a printed circuit board (pcb) supported by the lamp body, and the pcb may include a plurality of individual lights arranged in a radial pattern. A controller chip may be included on the pcb, the controller chip may provide electrical energy to each of the individual lights, thereby enabling selective illumination of each of the individual lights. The controller chip may provide a lighting designation, wherein some of the individual lights are designated as primary lights being illuminated at a first brightness, which may illuminate in a radial pattern. The radial pattern may provide a more visible pattern which may be more distinguishable from other roadway lighting, thereby increasing visibility of the replaceable vehicle light.

IN-VEHICLE NETWORK SYSTEM

An actuator control device (12) receives an output of a travel control device (100) via a first communication path (14), and controls a body-related actuator (13) in accordance with an instruction signal output from the travel control device (100). A second communication path (15) for transmitting a predetermined signal to the actuator control device (12) is provided independently from the first communication path (14). The actuator control device (12) controls the body-related actuator (13) in accordance with the predetermined signal received via the second communication path (15) at a disturbance of a communication via the first communication path (14).

VEHICLE INDICATION DEVICE
20230107328 · 2023-04-06 ·

A vehicle indication device includes: a road surface drawing unit mounted on a vehicle and configured to draw one or more notification indications by light on a road surface in a direction of travel of the vehicle; and a control unit configured to, when a turn signal of the vehicle is on, cause the road surface drawing unit to either draw the one or more notification indications in a first color on the road surface or turn off display of the one or more notification indications in a case where the vehicle gives way to a pedestrian, and cause the road surface drawing unit to draw the one or more notification indications in a second color different from the first color on the road surface in a case different from the case where the vehicle gives way to a pedestrian.

Opaque laminated vehicle roof with panoramic glazed appearance

The laminated glass panoramic roof is a popular although expensive option offered on a growing number of automobiles. Much of its appeal comes from the sleek modern appearance that it gives to the vehicle. The opaque laminated vehicle roof, by removing vision and optical requirements can be produced at a lower cost. The opaque laminated roof, by retaining a glass outer surface, maintains the same exterior appearance, aesthetic and much of the appeal of a conventional laminated glass panoramic roof. The opaque laminated vehicle roof also allows for the use of alternate materials which can further reduce cost and weight while adding additional features such as installation hardware, fasteners, lighting, antennas and solar cells to the roof.
