System and method for reconfiguring operator controls
A method for reconfiguring operator controls of a work vehicle is disclosed. The method comprises providing a user interface operatively coupled to a control device. Displaying one or more displays of an apparatus configuration on a display screen of the user interface, each of the one or more displays including graphics associated with a function of the apparatus. Associating a control output of a control unit of the control device with the function of the apparatus; and dynamically adjusting, by a controller, the control output of the control unit to reconfigure operator controls of the work vehicle in response to a change in the graphics or a change in the relative arrangement of the one or more displays on the display screen.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CHANGING AN APPEARANCE OF AT LEAST ONE VEHICLE
A system for changing an appearance of a vehicle includes a vehicle and a vehicle-external server. The vehicle has a plurality of components and/or functions with changeable properties. The vehicle-external server has a user platform accessible from the vehicle and/or by a user terminal and on which an appearance can be selected from a plurality of appearances available to the vehicle. The vehicle-external server has a computing unit generating a data packet based on the selected appearance. The data packet is suitable for processing in the control unit in the vehicle to change the properties of the plurality of components and/or functions in a coordinated manner. The data packet is transmitted from the vehicle-external server to the control unit by the communication units and the control unit processes the data packet and adjusts the properties of the plurality of components and/or functions.
Method for controlling vehicle functions
A method for controlling vehicle functions to increase the well-being and/or to increase the attention of at least one vehicle user in a vehicle. A number of vehicle functions are activated when at least one specific user menu is selected. Here, a lead function assigned to the user menu from the number of vehicle functions is predetermined in each case and the time and content processes of the other vehicle functions assigned to the user menu are coordinated with respect to the lead function.
METHOD FOR OPERATING A MOBILE, PORTABLE OUTPUT APPARATUS IN A MOTOR VEHICLE, CONTEXT PROCESSING DEVICE, MOBILE OUTPUT APPARATUS AND MOTOR VEHICLE
A context processing unit receives an environmental signal from a registration unit of a motor vehicle. The environmental signal describes an item of information, independent of a movement direction of the motor vehicle, regarding an event in an environment of the motor vehicle. The event establishes a predetermined thematic context of media content of an output file. The predetermined media content of the output file is changed in dependence on the thematic context of the media content, so that a virtual environment described by the changed media content takes into consideration the information of the event in the environment of the motor vehicle with respect to context. The output file with the changed media content is transmitted to a display unit of an output device which outputs the output file.
VEHICLES THAT CAN BE CUSTOMIZED AND PERSONALIZED VIA MOBILE USER PROFILES
A vehicle that can be customized and personalized via a mobile user profile. The vehicle can include a body, a powertrain, vehicle electronics, and a computing system. The computing system of the vehicle can be configured to: receive data fields of a driver profile of a user from a mobile device; estimate, using machine learning, configurations of vehicle functions for the vehicle according to the data fields; and control settings of a set of components of the vehicle, via the vehicle electronics, according to the estimated configurations.
Steering wheel interface module with retained presets
A steering wheel control interface module that can automatically detect the type of vehicle it is installed in and automatically detect the type of aftermarket radio it is sending messages to. In addition, the interface module can retain certain user pre-selects and use those to properly set the state of an aftermarket radio.
ADAPTING AN ADVANCED DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEM OF A VEHICLE
Methods and systems for adapting an advanced driver assistance driving system of a vehicle. One system includes an electronic processor of an advanced driver assistance driving system. The electronic processor is configured to control the vehicle using a control parameter of the advanced driver assistance driving system. The electronic processor is also configured to activate a learning mode for the advanced driver assistance driving system and receive feedback associated with the control of the vehicle. The electronic processor is also configured to adjust the control parameter of the advanced driver assistance driving system based on the feedback and control the vehicle using the adjusted control parameter.
INSTRUMENT PANEL FOR LEISURE VEHICLE
An instrument panel for a leisure vehicle includes a display including a first region including a central part of the display, the first region being configured to display a predetermined image set by a user or a video from a camera installed in the vehicle. The display also includes a second region including at least a part of a peripheral part of the display, the second region being configured to display travelling information indicating a travelling condition.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECONFIGURING OPERATOR CONTROLS
A method for reconfiguring operator controls of a work vehicle is disclosed. The method comprises providing a user interface operatively coupled to a control device. Displaying one or more displays of an apparatus configuration on a display screen of the user interface, each of the one or more displays including graphics associated with a function of the apparatus. Associating a control output of a control unit of the control device with the function of the apparatus; and dynamically adjusting, by a controller, the control output of the control unit to reconfigure operator controls of the work vehicle in response to a change in the graphics or a change in the relative arrangement of the one or more displays on the display screen.
Emotion mapping method, emotion mapping apparatus and vehicle including the same
An emotion mapping apparatus includes: a detector configured to sense a user's emotion state using at least one sensor; a storage in which information about a relationship between the at least one sensor and an emotion factor is stored; and a controller configured to acquire information about the user's emotion state based on a relevance that exceeds a preset reference value among user's emotion state values measured by the at least one sensor, and generates an emotion map in which information about the user's emotion state is classified according to a first emotion axis corresponding to a degree of positive and a second axis corresponding to a degree of excitability.
