Disclosed is a vehicle lighting device intended to improve convenience and safety. A vehicle lighting device includes a light disposed in a vehicle interior, a controller controlling the light, and a detecting unit detecting position or motion of a detecting object by detecting a detection object at a plurality of positions, and the controller controls the light when the position or motion of the detection object is detected by the detecting unit.

A vehicle sun visor module includes a ceiling component, which forms at least part of a ceiling of a vehicle, and a vehicle sun visor module, which is arranged to be adjacent to the ceiling component. The vehicle sun visor includes a visor main body, which is configured to be pivotal relative to the ceiling component between a use position and a retracted position, and a mirror attached to the visor main body. The ceiling component includes a lighting device, which is configured to radiate light into a passenger compartment, and an inductive switch, which turns on the lighting device when set to an ON state and turns off the lighting device when set to an OFF state. The vehicle sun visor includes a magnet that is configured to switch the inductive switch between the ON state and the OFF state.

Technologies and techniques for controlling the interior lighting of a vehicle. Multiple lighting units are distributed in the interior of the vehicle, and each of the lighting units is assigned at least two color zones. Arrangement profiles for arranging the at least two color zones in the interior of the vehicle are displayed on a display and operating device, and a user selection of one of the arrangement profiles is detected. A color selection by the user is detected for each of the at least two color zones via a respective operating element displayed on the display and operating device, and a color is set for each lighting unit by a controller according to the selected arrangement profile and the colors selected for the at least two color zones. The invention also relates to a device for controlling the interior lighting of a vehicle.

A method of activating a vehicle function is provided. The method includes detecting a force exerted onto a bed step of a vehicle using a pressure sensor. A controller detects whether the amount of force exerted onto the bed step is greater than a force threshold. When the force exertion force exceeds the force threshold, one of a plurality of pressure patterns is detected. One of a plurality of vehicle functions is then activated based on the detected pressure pattern.

Lighting may be provided using light sources such as lighting systems with arrays of light-emitting diodes. A lighting system may be integrated into a seat, a door panel, a dashboard, or other interior portions of a system such as a vehicle. The interior portions of the vehicle may be illuminated using lighting systems to provide ambient light, to provide custom surface textures and other decorative patterns, to provide icons, text, and other information, and to provide custom gauges and other illuminated regions. Illuminated regions may overlap sensors such as capacitive touch sensors, force sensors, and other sensors. The light-emitting diodes in a lighting system may supply light that passes through openings in a cover layer. The layer may be formed from fabric, leather, or other materials. Lens structures may guide light through the openings.

The present disclosure discloses a roller blind side sliding rail device of a strip lamp, the roller blind side sliding rail device of the strip lamp of the present disclosure cooperates with a new material lampshade after an irradiation direction of an LED lamp is deflected, thus achieving better light transmission, and light is clearly visible from a distance.

A console assembly for a vehicle according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a touch-sensitive panel providing at least one touch-sensitive switch, and a circuit electrically connected to the at least one switch. The circuit is configured to receive one or more inputs from the touch-sensitive panel and issue commands to control one or more aspects of the vehicle.

A passenger service unit, a passenger seating area, and a vehicle having a passenger service unit are provided, wherein the passenger service unit comprises a carrier element that can be extended in a longitudinal direction and a covering. The covering covers at least a section of the carrier element. At least one electrical and/or electronic element is integrated in the covering.

This system for detecting the surrounding conditions of a moving body forcibly changes the state of at least one of a plurality of lighting devices (change from an unlit sate to a lighting state or a blinking state, change in the emission color, or change in the luminance) installed inside the moving body, if an object to which attention must be paid during traveling of the moving body is detected in the surroundings of the moving body.
