A process for mounting an object within an adjustable device. The adjustable device can in turn be attached to a vehicle to hold the object to the vehicle. This adjustable device may be made larger or smaller to accommodate different sizes of objects. The adjustment of the adjustable device comes from the interaction of a set of one or more ribs on one piece with a set of channels on another piece.

Provided is an escape tool housing member to be wound around an assist grip of a vehicle, in which a main body is to be wound around a grip portion, and a housing portion housing an escape tool is arranged to abut against an inner side of the grip portion. By pinching and then pulling with fingers a left convex portion, a pull portion, a concave portion and a right convex portion that are positioned on a front surface side of the grip portion, a left inner fixation portion and a left outer fixation portion will be disconnected from each other, and a right inner fixation portion and a right outer fixation portion will be disconnected from each other as well, thereby allowing the escape tool housing member to be removed from the assist grip.

The inventive subject matter provides devices and methods for improving driving safety using information obtained from images taken by a camera in a device. Among other things, contemplated devices and methods can produce alarms when it appear from rates of speed and acceleration/deceleration, that a vehicle will likely go through a red light, or fail to stop or sufficiently slow down at a stop sign. A significant feature of preferred devices and methods is that they are not dependent on WI-FI, cellular, satellite and radio signals, or any other external data transmission, and are not even dependent on speed, acceleration, or other information native to the vehicle.

A console table assembly for a vehicle includes a base movably coupled to a floor of the vehicle, a pivot arm having a first end pivotably coupled to the base and a second end that is distal from the first end, a table pivotably coupled to the pivot arm at the second end and having a top side and an underside opposite the top side, a panel coupled to the table and operable to move relative to the table from a first panel position to second panel position, and a foot rest coupled to the base and operable to move relative to the base from a retracted position to a deployed position.

A structure such as a recreational vehicle includes a guide member coupled to a wall of the structure, a carriage member slidingly coupled to the guide member, a mounting bracket, and a bed coupled to the mounting bracket. The mounting bracket includes a support base configured to be coupled to the carriage member and a support arm rotatably coupled to the support base. The support arm is configured to rotate between a first position where the support arm extends horizontally from the support base and a second position where the support arm extends vertically from the support base.

A loudspeaker assembly for a vehicle includes a loudspeaker mounted in the vehicle, the loudspeaker having a first side facing an interior of the vehicle and an opposed second side. The loudspeaker is configured to generate an acoustical signal having a front wave directed into the interior of the vehicle and a rear wave directed away from the interior of the vehicle. An acoustic coupler is disposed on the second side of the loudspeaker and extending toward an exterior of the vehicle, the acoustic coupler arranged to transmit the rear wave to the exterior of the vehicle such that the acoustical signal is audible in the interior of the vehicle and at the exterior of the vehicle.

A weight management system for managing vehicle seat occupant body weight by using vehicle cameras and weight sensors of a plurality of vehicles having onboard communication modules. Each vehicle is equipped to analyze and compare weight changes of the vehicle seat occupant over time. Based on the weight status, a weight management recommendation can be transmitted to the vehicle seat occupant. Each vehicle is operatively connected to a weight management application in a data center. The weight management application includes a registration module which registers each vehicle. Additionally, a vehicle seat occupant may register with the weight management application to have his/her weight analyzed when travelling in any of the plurality of vehicles. The weight management application requests a search of a data lake and analysis of search results by a weight data artificial intelligence analytics program to improve the weight management recommendation.

Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for configuration of optical sensor devices in vehicles based on thermal data. To manage the temperature of an optical sensor device, temperature data describing the current temperature of the optical sensor is used to determine whether the current temperature meets or exceeds a predetermined threshold temperature. If the current temperature meets or exceeds the threshold temperature, the optical sensor device may be configured into a modified operating mode to reduce the current temperature of the optical sensor device. For example, the operating mode of the optical sensor device may be modified to terminate one or more processes, reduce a frame rate at which image/video data is captured, and the like.

The technology provides an interior camera sensing system for self-driving vehicles. The sensor system includes image sensors and infrared illuminators to see the vehicle's cabin and storage areas in all ambient lighting conditions. The system can monitor the vehicle for safety purposes, to detect the cleanliness of the cabin and storage areas, as well as to detect whether packages or other objects have been inadvertently left in the vehicle. The cameras are arranged to focus on selected regions in the vehicle cabin and the system carries out certain actions in response to information evaluated for those regions. The interior space is divided into multiple zones assigned different coverage priorities. Regardless of elude size or configuration, certain actions are performed according to various ride checklists and the imagery detected by the interior cameras. The checklists include pre-ride, mid-ride, and post-ride checklists.

A system, comprising a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions executable by the processor to determine, from an image including a portion of a surface of a human body, a reflected light intensity from the body surface portion, determine, a skin reflectance of the body surface portion based on a location of the body surface, a light source, and an image sensor location, and to determine, for the body surface portion, an incoming radiance, based on the skin reflectance and the reflected light intensity.
