An experience providing system includes: a passenger information detector configured to detect information regarding a passenger of a vehicle; an outside information detector configured to detect information outside the vehicle; an output section configured to output sound; a virtual image generator configured to output display; and a provider configured to dynamically provide an interaction to the passenger of the vehicle by causing the sound output from the output section to be synchronized with the display output from the virtual image generator on the basis of detection results of the passenger information detector and the outside information detector.

The techniques of this disclosure relate to a vehicle occupancy-monitoring system. The system includes a controller circuit that receives occupant data from an occupancy-monitoring sensor of a vehicle. The controller circuit determines an occupancy status of respective seats in a cabin of the vehicle based on the occupancy-monitoring sensor. The controller circuit indicates the occupancy status of the respective seats on a display located in a field of view of occupants of the vehicle. The display is integral to one of a roof light module, a door panel, or a headliner of the cabin. The system can improve passenger safety by alerting the operator and other occupants about the occupancy status of the passengers.

Presenting first drawer area on a first display device in an instrument panel of a vehicle, the first drawer area presented in an extended state; presenting second drawer area on a second display device in the instrument panel of the vehicle, the second drawer area presented in a retracted state; receiving first transition command regarding the first and second drawer areas; and in response to receiving the first transition command: presenting the first drawer area in the retracted state on the first display device, wherein the first content is not visible in the first drawer area in the retracted state; and presenting the second drawer area in the extended state on the second display device, wherein the first content of the first application is visible in the second drawer area.

Methods, devices, and processor-readable media for hand-on-wheel gesture controls are described. A steering wheel is virtually segmented into a plurality of radial segments. Each segment is assigned a semantic meaning. Control commands related to control functions are mapped to different virtual segments of the steering wheel. When a user performs a gesture on the steering wheel, the system recognizes the gesture and selects a control function based on the location of the hand relative to the steering wheel. In various embodiments, on-wheel hand gestures, on-wheel hand location, and voice commands may be used in various combinations to enable a user to perform a wide selection of functions using a small number of unique commands.

Provided is a vehicle, comprising: a voice receiver configured to acquire a user voice input; a speaker provided inside the vehicle; a display provided inside the vehicle; and a controller configured to control the voice receiver, the speaker and the display, wherein the controller is configured to: acquire a control command from the user voice input, wait for receiving a subsequent control command for a predetermined waiting time after operating a control target based on the control command, and control at least one of the speaker or the display to provide a feedback for notifying that the control target is in a subsequent controllable state.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, an interaction system for a first vehicle is provided, which comprises a processor and a memory storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the latter to implement steps comprising: receiving a first input from the first vehicle and displaying a first avatar on a display; and receiving a second input from a second vehicle and displaying a second avatar on the display, wherein the first input and the second input are updated in real time, and the first avatar and the second avatar dynamically change accordingly.

A method of automated medical scheduling of an autonomous vehicle to pick up a patient including the steps of receiving data on a processor via a checklist, said data being a plurality of predetermined physical conditions of a patient, each of the plurality of predetermined physical conditions having a predetermined assigned weight based on level of severity, generating a summation of the total weight for each predetermined physical condition, generating a predetermined specialty acuity score by comparing the corresponding range of the total weight and generating a report to output of the specialty acuity score, the specialty acuity score used to determine priority of scheduling patients in a system. A specialty acuity score may be generated for each system affected, the systems each assigned a value of 1. A comorbidity score may be generated by the summation of each system.

Techniques for interacting with authorized and unauthorized users by a door interface component are discussed herein. A vehicle computing device can implement the door interface component and/or an authentication component to control operation of a door of the vehicle or initiate a communication for assistance. For instance, the door interface component can include a button, that provides different visual indicators and functionality based on whether the user is authorized to enter the autonomous vehicle (e.g., open a door or provide visual indicators for the user to select to cause the door to open) or to request to move the vehicle, initiate hiring the vehicle, or call for help when the user is unauthorized to enter the autonomous vehicle.

Disclosed is a system for controlling a vehicle display. The system includes a display and processors that confirm an external interest information of a first occupant in a vehicle; and a display controller that performs control to display the external interest information of the first occupant through the vehicle display.

Disclosed is a system for controlling a vehicle display. The system includes a vehicle display, processors that recognize behavioral information related to an occupant in a vehicle viewing a display screen of the vehicle display, and a display controller that controls the vehicle display using the behavior information related to viewing the display screen. The display controller analyzes the behavior information related to viewing the display screen, determines when a gaze of the occupant deviates from an area of the display screen, and controls the vehicle display based on the gaze.
