The disclosure overcomes the shortcomings of the existing technology and provides a reflow-solderable vehicle-mounted lens module, which can ensure stable and consistent performance of a module system before and after undergoing a reflow soldering process with the highest ambient temperature of 230 to 260° C., and can satisfy the process requirements for a camera system in DMS.

Provided is a vehicle air conditioning controller including a memory and a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor determines whether or not an occupant in a cabin of a vehicle is applying makeup to herself/himself and, in a case in which it has been determined that the occupant is applying makeup, changes at least one of an air direction or an air volume of conditioned air that is generated by an air conditioning system installed at the vehicle and is supplied to the occupant from an air outlet provided in the cabin.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a rear-view assembly comprising a housing, a frame, wherein the frame is secured to a vehicle and the housing is secured to the frame, and at least one camera, having at least one lens is secured to the frame to improve image stability. The rear-view assembly may also include a bezel and a reflective element. The bezel has a bezel aperture which allows the at least one lens to view a rearward direction with respect to the vehicle.

The present disclosure refers to a rear-view system for a vehicle which includes a bracket mountable to the vehicle and a rear-view head telescopically mounted to the bracket. The rear-view system further includes at least one of a reflective element or a camera mounted on the rear-view head such that the at least one of the reflective element or the camera is movable with the rear-view head. The rear-view system further includes a position sensor configured to generate a signal indicative of a telescopic position of the rear-view head with respect to the bracket. A processor is configured to receive at least one image from the camera and the signal from the position sensor. The display is configured to receive at least one modified image from the processor. The present disclosure also refers to a vehicle with such a rear-view system.

A mirror assembly for a vehicle includes a housing and a partially reflective, partially transmissive element is located in the housing. A bezel assembly includes at least one localized region that is substantially opaque to a visible spectrum of light and substantially transmissive to an infrared spectrum of light. At least one illumination element is located in the housing and oriented to project infrared illumination through the at least one localized region.

The present disclosure refers to a base assembly of an exterior rear view device to be mounted to a vehicle, comprising a base frame and at least one camera sub-assembly attached to the base frame, wherein the camera sub-assembly comprises at least one camera, a camera cradle and a camera holder designed to provide clamping force and datum onto the camera.

A vehicular cabin monitoring system includes a mirror head adjustably attached at a mounting structure configured to attach at an interior portion of a vehicle. The mirror head accommodates a camera and a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) connected in series with each other. A switch is operable in an open state, where current provided by a current driver passes through each individual LED of the plurality of LEDs, and a closed state, where current provided by the current driver passes through a first subset of LEDs of the plurality of LEDs and bypasses a second subset of LEDs of the plurality of LEDs. The switch operates in the open state when the camera captures image data for a first vehicular function, such as occupant monitoring, and operates in the closed state when the camera captures image data for a second vehicular function, such as driver monitoring.

A full display mirror assembly for a vehicle includes an electro-optic assembly containing an electro-optic medium, a display module, and at least one imager module configured to capture a blind spot. A processor and a memory including instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to, in response to a detection of an object in the blind spot, generate a first warning indicia in a first region of the full display mirror assembly. The processor is further caused to, in response to a detection that a vehicle containing the full display mirror assembly is turning or about to turn towards the blind spot with the object, generate a second warning indicia in a second region of the full display mirror assembly by enlarging the first region.

A vibration sensor assembly having a rigid surface and a transducer integrated with the rigid surface. The transducer measures structure-borne sound waves that cause vibration motion of the rigid surface. The rigid surface may be glass, metal or plastic and may be part of an interior part or panel, or an exterior panel, of a vehicle.

A control device of an ECM employs a current control method in place of a voltage control method in order to remove heat generation, and can stably provide a desired current and voltage to an ECM regardless of an input voltage. The control device of an ECM may include: an illuminance sensor unit configured to sense the brightness of light; an MCU configured to output a control signal corresponding to the brightness level of the sensed light; an ECM control unit configured to generate and output a constant current having a current value adjusted to correspond to the brightness level of the sensed light, in response to the control signal; and an ECM including a material to cause a chemical change in which the color thereof changes while the material is oxidized by the constant current, and having reflectivity adjusted to correspond to the adjusted current value of the constant current.
