Method for visualizing an inclination of a motor vehicle in the motor vehicle
A method for visualizing an inclination of a motor vehicle in the motor vehicle, in which the inclination of the motor vehicle is measured and made visible in the interior of the motor vehicle. The inclination is made visible by interior lighting of the motor vehicle. At least one virtual plane is formed, which intersects the motor vehicle horizontally when the latter is in a horizontal position and serves as a reference plane for displaying the inclination. Changes in the inclination of the motor vehicle are modeled dynamically by the interior lighting by the sequential and/or parallel activation of illuminants of the interior lighting.
VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM, VEHICLE CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
A vehicle control system includes a steering operation element configured to receive a steering operation of a vehicle by a driver, a grip detector configured to detect a gripping state of the steering operation element by the driver of the vehicle, and a display processor configured to cause a display device to display a notification image indicating at least the gripping state. The notification image includes a first graphic deformable based on a circle within an entire image area. The display processor causes the display device to display the notification image including the first graphic deformed to expand a location corresponding to a part where the driver is gripping the steering operation element.
Center information display system, vehicle, and method for adjusting view angle of center information display
A center information display system includes a center information display; a capturing device configured to obtain information on an occupant inside a vehicle; a rotating structure configured to adjust a view angle of the center information display; and a control device in communication with the capturing device, being configured to determine whether there is an occupant in a driver seat or a passenger seat, and control the rotating structure to rotate the center information display to a predetermined view angle.
Road surface condition identification apparatus
A road surface condition identification apparatus for identifying a road surface condition is provided. The road surface condition identification apparatus includes a vibration detector unit configured to output a detection signal being an analog signal according to magnitude of vibration of the tire. For identifying the road surface condition, the road surface condition identification apparatus performs A-D conversion of converting the detection signal of the vibration detector unit into a digital signal. Based on data on vehicle speed, the road surface to condition identification apparatus sets a conversion range of the magnitude of the vibration of the tire used in the AD conversion from the detection signal into the digital signal.
IMPROVED AUTOMOTIVE DISPLAY PANELS
Disclosed are structural design solutions for flexible display panels for use in automobile interiors that comprises a flexible joint portion that are configured to meet the requirements of the automobile industry standard head form impact testing.
Occupant facing vehicle display
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a vehicle for maneuvering an occupant of the vehicle to a destination autonomously as well as providing information about the vehicle and the vehicle's environment for display to the occupant.
OPTICAL DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
An optical device for a vehicle includes an optical sensor module for detecting light that propagates through a light transmitting member; and a correction optical system that includes at least one optical member for allowing the light that propagates between the light transmitting member and the optical sensor module to be refracted in a direction different from a direction refracted by the light transmitting member.
ROLLABLE DISPLAY SYSTEM AND METHOD OF ADAPTIVELY ADJUSTING VIEW RANGE OF ROLLABLE MONITOR ACCORDING TO DRIVER
Proposed are a rollable display system capable of adaptively adjusting a height of a rollable monitor in consideration of a driver and enlarging and reproducing an image of a blind spot of the driver in front of a vehicle occurring depending on road conditions, and a method of adaptively adjusting a view range of the rollable monitor in consideration of the driver.
INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM, MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION, AND DEVICE FOR OPERATING AN INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM OF A MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION
A mode of transportation, an infotainment system, and a device for operating an infotainment system of a mode of transportation having a finger strip extending in a linear or curved manner for haptically guiding a finger of a user, a detection unit for detecting swipe gestures carried out on the finger strip, an analyzing unit for processing detected swipe gestures, and a linear light outlet extending at least approximately completely along the finger strip. The device acknowledges a user gesture by a light signal emitted from the light outlet in response to a user gesture detected by the detection unit.
MANAGING RECREATIONAL VEHICLES AND ACCESSORIES
A vehicle is electrically connected to one or more accessories. The vehicle includes at least one controller that may be configured to identify the accessory based on accessory identification information. The controller may also be configured to provide one or more commands to control an operation of the accessory.
