Parking management apparatus and system

A parking management system is provided. The system includes a plurality of first parking management apparatuses configured to detect whether parking spaces are occupied and to adjust a brightness level of lights based on occupancy information of the parking spaces. The system also includes at least one second parking management apparatus configured to detect whether a vehicle passes through one of an entrance and an exit of a parking facility and perform corresponding operations based on a detection result. Further, the system includes a server, where the first parking management apparatuses are cascaded through a first Bluetooth module. The first parking management apparatus is connected to a wireless module of the second parking management apparatus through the first Bluetooth module; the second parking management apparatus communicates with the server through the wireless module; and the plurality of first parking management apparatuses communicate with the server through the second parking management apparatus.

Parking signaling system
09809157 · 2017-11-07 ·

A system is disclosed to communicate in vehicular traffic an intention of a driver of a vehicle to execute a parallel parking maneuver. The system includes a display generating a signal to indicate to other drivers the intention to execute the parallel parking maneuver to either a left side of the vehicle or a right side of the vehicle. The signal is distinct from and in addition to a turn signal for the vehicle indicating an intended left turn or right turn. Embodiments of the disclosed system include an illuminated word parallel, arrows pointing both right and left and forward and backward, a determination to a particular open space based upon an orientation of a head of the driver, and a laser emitter providing a second indication to onlookers to a parking space.

AUTOMOTIVE LAMP
20170259731 · 2017-09-14 ·

The present disclosure provides an automotive lamp, and more particularly, to an automotive lamp capable of informing an ambient vehicle approaching from one side behind the vehicle of a vehicle state by irradiating light of a road pattern to indicate the vehicle state to an area behind the vehicle. The automotive lamp includes a lamp unit disposed in a rear lamp housing of a vehicle and a detection unit configured to detect whether a reverse shift stage is selected. The lamp unit is configured to irradiate a first light distribution pattern that forms a reversing light signal pattern in the rearward direction of the vehicle, and a second light distribution pattern that forms a road pattern on the rearward road surface of the vehicle. The first light distribution pattern and the second light distribution pattern are formed simultaneously, when the reverse shift stage is selected.
