A driving assistance apparatus includes: a driver identifying unit that identifies a driver driving a vehicle; an evaluation data obtaining unit that obtains, based on an identification result of the driver identifying unit, evaluation data on the driver's visual cognitive ability for an event that occurs when the driver is driving the vehicle; an event detecting unit that detects, on the basis of surrounding information data indicating a situation of the vehicle's surroundings, whether or not the event has occurred; and a processing unit that determines, in a case where the event has been detected and on the basis of the evaluation data on the driver, the evaluation data being related to the event, whether or not notification information is to be output from an output unit.

A screen assembly for an interior of a vehicle. The screen assembly includes a base component being configured for being arranged in an interior of an instrument panel or in an interior of a center console of the vehicle. Moreover, the screen assembly includes a screen component including a screen unit being configured for displaying information for a user of the vehicle. A translational guiding means is kinematically arranged between the screen component and the base component such that the screen component is translationally movable relative to the base component. Moreover, a first rotational guiding means is kinematically arranged between the screen component and the base component such that the screen component is tiltable. Additionally, a method for controlling a position of a screen component in an interior of a vehicle is presented. Furthermore, a data processing apparatus and a screen system for an interior of a vehicle are explained.

An occupant detection system and method may include a user interface and at least one sensor to determine if there is an occupant in the vehicle. In one embodiment, the system and method use capacitive sensing sensors embedded into a cushion and/or back of seats in a vehicle. The capacitive sensor sends a sense signal to a controller and the controller would recognize various conditions such as an empty seat or a seat occupied by a person or animal. It could also determine if there was a child seat in a position on a vehicle seat and if there is a child in the child seat.

A refuse vehicle includes a controller having a processor and at least one memory. The controller is in communication with a control console on a first side of a cab and a control console on a second side of a cab. The controller is configured to detect a presence of an operator in a seat on the first side or a seat on the second side based on a signal from a camera, a weight sensor, or an ignition, and in response to detecting the presence of an operator on the first side of the cab, enable a vehicle operator interface of the control console on the first side and disable a vehicle operator interface of the control console on the second side.

A display control device acquires sight line information about a direction of a visual field of a driver of a moving body, viewpoint information about a start point of the visual field of the driver, and map information around the moving body. The display control device acquires a blind spot region of the driver on the basis of the acquired sight line information, viewpoint information, and surroundings information. In addition, the display control device performs control of generating display information on the basis of the surroundings information about the blind spot region and displaying the display information on a display device.

A vehicle includes a transparent display provided on the dashboard to face the front of the driver and provided to be able to descend inside the dashboard or ascend above the dashboard, an input device provided to obtain a user input, and a controller configured to adjust an ascending height of the transparent display and to adjust transparency of the transparent display, according to a driving mode selected by the user input.

A purpose-built vehicle includes a windshield selectively presenting an image toward the inside and the outside of a vehicle, and a seat, a position of the seat being movable inside of the vehicle and a seating base of the seat being attachable and detachable. Particularly, the seating base of the seat is configured to have such a rotatable structure that the seating is detached from a frame of the seat and then is possibly fitted in place in an arbitrary space.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a system for vehicle display image warping including an occupant monitoring unit configured to check occupant monitoring information; a control command generation unit configured to generate a control command for warping an image according to the result of monitoring the occupant; and a warped image display unit configured to display a warped image according to the control command.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a system for controlling vehicle display comprising: a content movement input unit configured to receive a request for movement of content among a plurality of display regions; a control unit configured to generate a content movement control command according to the request for movement; and a display unit configured to display the content according to the content movement control command.

An AV receives a delivery request made by a user. The AV navigates to the user's location. The AV's onboard controller determines that the AV has arrived at the location. The onboard controller then commands the AV's motor to pause motion. The onboard controller provides the user an access to a delivery assembly in the AV. The onboard controller or the delivery assembly detects, by using sensors in the delivery assembly, whether an item has been removed from or placed into the container. Subsequent to detecting that the item has been removed from or placed into the container, the onboard controller commands the AV's motor to resume motion. The onboard controller or delivery assembly may also control a movable element in the container to allow the user to load or unload the item from a safe spot or control a divider in the container to protect the user's privacy.
