The invention relates to an arrangement (I) of a palm rest (IO) and a manually actuatable operating element (20) for a vehicle. The palm rest (IO) is designed to adopt a first and a second position relative to the operating element (20), the palm rest (IO) being positioned, in the first position, such that it enables a hand (2) to be supported while the operating element (20) is being operated. To protect against damage and to enable the vehicle interior to be better used, the palm rest (IO) is positioned, in the second position, such that the palm rest (IO) at least partially projects over and/or covers the operating element (20).

Systems, devices, and methods are disclosed in which one or more light sources, a detector, a processor and a controller are configured such that light from the one or more light sources can provide illumination or projections that can reduce accidents while the vehicle is in motion and when parked and may also provide information and illumination to the driver and vehicle occupants when entering or exiting the vehicle. These systems may, for example, provide spot illumination to moving objects or pedestrians on the road surface, with the spot illumination following the moving object. Alternatively or in addition these systems may project images on the ground, for example to communicate information to occupants of the vehicle, to occupants of another vehicle, or to pedestrians.

Methods and systems for improving vehicular safety by utilizing uplift modeling techniques to improve a driving tip treatment generation model are provided. According to embodiments, a tip server can analyze telematics data associated with operation of one or more vehicles to determine that a driving tip should be provided to a driver of a vehicle. The tip server then utilize a treatment generation model to determine a treatment for how to provide the driving tip in a manner optimized for the particular driver. The tip server can analyze additional telematics data to determine an effectiveness of the driving tip and to update the treatment generation model in accordance with uplift modeling techniques.

A display assembly for a vehicle may include: a back cover constituting the body of the display assembly, and fixed to an instrument panel; an LCD module disposed at the front of the back cover; and a coupling member disposed between the back cover and the LCD module, and configured to couple the back cover and the LCD module to each other. The coupling member may be formed of a double-sided tape.

Provided is a display device provided inside a vehicle. The display device includes: a display having flexibility and a sheet shape; a movement mechanism that includes a connection connected to a first end portion of the display and in which the connection moves in a direction intersecting a front-rear direction of the vehicle; and a guide mechanism configured to guide a second end portion of the display in a guide direction different from a movement direction of the connection in association with movement of the connection while curving and supporting a part of the display.

A vehicle arrangement includes a display device for displaying at least one item of information on a display surface for at least one person being transported by the vehicle, a detection device for detecting disturbance of the view of the person of the display surface, and a further component which is compensating the detected disturbance of the view of the person of the display surface at least partially by at least one of movement relative to the display surface and alteration of its external shape. A vehicle includes at least one such vehicle arrangement, and a method provides a display in or on a vehicle.

A holding structure for an optional component, the optional component configured to be added to a saddle-type vehicle, the holding structure includes a brace extending forward from a head pipe of a vehicle front portion, a plate supported from below by the brace, and a holder for the optional component provided on the plate. A periphery of a meter configured to display vehicle information is covered with a meter cover. The meter is supported by the plate so as to be exposed from the meter cover, and the optional component is held inside the meter cover by the holder.

Systems and methods for using image analysis techniques to assess unsafe driving conditions by a vehicle operator are discloses. According to aspects, a computing device may access and analyze image data depicting the vehicle operator. In analyzing the image, the computing device may measure certain visible metrics as depicted in the image data and compare the metrics to corresponding threshold values, and may accordingly determine whether the vehicle operator is exhibiting an unsafe driving condition. The computing device may generate and present alerts that indicate any determined unsafe driving condition.

An assembly for a vehicle comprising a crossmember, which is provided for connecting to two pillars lying opposite each other with respect to the x-y plane of the vehicle; a mounting that is connected to the crossmember, protrudes therefrom in the radial direction, and has two mounts, which are mutually spaced in the y direction, and end-face connection means; and a panel-shaped instrument which is connected to the connection means of the mounting at a distance to the upper closure thereof and which is held such that the operating surface of the instrument faces the passenger compartment of the vehicle in the x direction. The two mounts are designed as supporting frame mounts with a respective upper cord and a respective lower cord, each of which has limbs adjoining one another at an angle, one limb lying on the y-z plane and the other lying on the x-y plane, and which are inclined relative to each other so as to have a greater distance to each other at the instrument connection side than at the end facing the crossmember. At least one of the two cords has at least one predetermined bending point, which is provided by the geometry of the cord, between the two connection points of the cord, said cord bending at the predetermined bending point in the z and/or y direction in the event of a load (x direction).
