Movable carrier auxiliary system

A movable carrier auxiliary system includes a driver state detecting device and a warning device. The driver state detecting device includes a physiological state detecting module, a storage module, and an operation module. The physiological state detecting module is adapted to detect a physiological state of a driver. The storage module is disposed in a movable carrier and stores an allowable parameter corresponding to the at least one physiological state. The operation module is disposed in the movable carrier and is electrically connected to the physiological state detecting module and the storage module to detect whether the at least one physiological state of the driver exceeds the allowable parameter or not, and to correspondingly generate a detection signal. The warning device generate a warning message when the detection signal that the at least one physiological state of the driver exceeds the allowable parameter is received.

Marking object arrangeable at a child seat for adaptive actuation of an airbag, method to determine a position and/or orientation of a child seat relative to a car seat and computer program for adaptive actuation of an airbag

The invention relates to a marking object that can be placed on a vehicle child seat for adaptive actuation of an airbag, which is configured to reflect electromagnetic radiation and mark a position and/or orientation of the vehicle child seat in relation to a vehicle seat for an imaging sensor based on the reflection, in order to actuate the airbag depending on the position and/or orientation of the vehicle child seat, wherein the marking object is a Quick Response code, radar reflector, lidar reflector, or infrared reflector. The invention also relates to a vehicle child seat, a method for determining a position and/or orientation of a vehicle child seat in relation to a vehicle seat, and interior monitoring system, a computer program for adaptive actuation of an airbag and a computer readable data carrier.

Alert system technology to conduct in-cabin child restraint system monitoring and facilitate compliance with location-dependent constraints

Methods, systems and apparatuses may provide for technology that conducts an automated vision analysis of image data associated with an interior of a vehicle cabin, determines a state of a child restraint system (CRS) based on the automated vision analysis, and generates an alert if the state of the CRS does not satisfy one or more safety constraints. In one example, the technology identifies the safety constraint(s) based on a geographic location of the vehicle cabin.

Disclosed are a system and method for controlling a vehicle. The system includes a vehicle that obtains driving information and a blind spot image, and transmits the driving information and the blind spot image, and a wearable device that receives the driving information and the blind spot image from the vehicle, and outputs the blind spot image based on the driving information and gaze information of a driver.

Vehicle driver monitoring system for determining driver workload
11488399 · 2022-11-01 · ·

A method for monitoring a driver of a vehicle includes receiving, at a control, driver information based on the driver of the vehicle. A distraction workload of the driver is determined by the control based on the driver information and a driving workload of the driver is estimated by the control based on the driver information. An amount of driver attention is determined by the control based on the determined distraction workload and the determined driving workload.

VEHICLE DRIVER MONITORING SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING DRIVER WORKLOAD
20230087319 · 2023-03-23 ·

A vehicular driver monitoring system includes an interior camera viewing at least a head region of a driver of a vehicle. Driver information pertaining to the driver of the vehicle is provided to an electronic control unit (ECU). Based at least in part on (i) processing at the ECU of image data captured by the interior camera and/or (ii) the received driver information, the vehicular driver monitoring system estimates a distraction workload of the driver and a driving workload of the driver. At least in part responsive to processing at the ECU of the estimated distraction workload and the estimated driving workload, the vehicular driver monitoring system determines an amount of driver attention. The amount of driver attention is determined at least in part by weighting the driving workload and the distraction workload based at least in part on driving conditions.

Shelving systems

A shelving system includes side members that each define a first channel having a slide disposed therein. A cross member extends between and connects the slides. The cross member defines a second channel having a guide member disposed therein. The guide member defines a third channel and a flange. A container includes side walls having a rail. One of the rails is movably disposed in the third channel. The rails include a first locking element and a second locking element. The handle includes a third locking element that engages the first locking element. The handle is movable between a first position in which the second locking element engages the flange and the container is fixed relative to the guide member and a second position in which the second locking element is spaced apart from the flange and the container can translate relative to the guide member.
