This convoy vehicle determination device can improve determination accuracy of a vehicle for forming a convoy. This convoy vehicle determination device, which determines convoy vehicle candidates, is provided with: an acquisition unit which acquires identification information of a third vehicle positioned in the periphery of any second vehicle from among the peripheral vehicles, read by the second vehicle, and, from the second vehicle, acquires position information of the second vehicle with respect to the third vehicle, specified by the second vehicle; and a determination unit which compares the identification information of the first vehicle and identification information of the third vehicle, and, on the basis of the results of said comparison and the position information of the second vehicle with respect to the third vehicle, determines a second vehicle from among the peripheral vehicles located in the periphery of the first vehicle as a convoy vehicle candidate.

An example operation includes one or more of receiving, by a computer associated with a transport, a gait of an individual from at least one camera associated with the transport, validating, by the computer, the gait, receiving, by the computer, a gesture of the individual from the at least one camera, validating, by the computer, the gesture, and performing, by the computer, one or more functions based on the validated gait and the validated gesture.

One or more indicators provide an indication of the energy source of power for one or more vehicles. The indicators may be positioned on a vehicle and/or on other structures such as parking garages, tunnels, and entrance gates. The indicators may be visual and/or acoustic. On a vehicle the indicators are positioned to most likely be intact during and after an accident and provide a predetermined indication that identifies an energy source that provides power for the vehicle.

Information related to a vehicle can be displayed by projecting an image based on the information on a road surface or the like. An image projection apparatus that projects an image includes: an acquisition unit that acquires information to be displayed; and an image projection unit that projects the image based on the information to be displayed acquired by the acquisition unit.

A vehicle includes a combined display-lighting unit. The combined display-lighting unit has, combined in a single component, an electronic paper display device forming an information zone and a lighting unit forming an illumination zone.

Information related to a vehicle can be displayed by projecting an image based on the information on a road surface or the like. An image projection apparatus that projects an image includes: an acquisition unit that acquires information to be displayed; and an image projection unit that projects the image based on the information to be displayed acquired by the acquisition unit.

A method, computer program product, and computing system for monitoring one or more machine vision sensors to obtain perception information concerning one or more pedestrians proximate an autonomous vehicle; identifying one or more humanoid shapes within the perception information, thus defining one or more detected humanoid shapes; generating proximate object display information that locates the one or more detected humanoid shapes with respect to the autonomous vehicle; and rendering the proximate object display information on a visual display system, thus confirming the perception of the one or more pedestrians by the autonomous vehicle.

A display system is provided in a vehicle and includes: an HUD positioned inside the vehicle and configured so as to display, on the vehicle window, a surrounding environment video indicating the environment surrounding the vehicle; and a display control unit controlling the HUD such that the surrounding environment video is displayed on the window in accordance with prescribed conditions associated to the vehicle or the environment surrounding the vehicle and configured so as to reduce the transmittance of the window.

A moving body including an external world information acquisition device is autonomously movable based on external world information acquired by the external world information acquisition device. The external world information acquisition device is arranged on an inner side of the moving body than an outer shell member of the moving body, and is formed with an external world information acquisition surface. The outer shell member has an opening portion. The moving body includes a cover member which is provided between the external world information acquisition device and the opening portion. The external world information acquisition surface acquires the external world information via the cover member. The cover member has a flat plate shape, and is arranged to face the external world information acquisition surface, and to be inclined in an upper-lower direction and a left-right direction of the moving body with respect to the external world information acquisition surface.

A system includes a vehicle and a smart display sheet adhered to a component of the vehicle or integrally formed into a component of the vehicle, wherein the flexible smart display sheet is capable of displaying at least one image. The system may further include a substrate layer, a display panel disposed on the substrate layer, wherein the display panel is capable of displaying the at least one image, and a protective layer disposed on the display panel capable of protecting the at least one display panel from environmental elements. The system may further include an adhesive or magnetic layer that adheres the smart display sheet to the component of the vehicle.
