Devices, systems, and methods for management of electrical resources for electric vehicles. A method may include receiving, by a vehicle, sensor data indicative of a first luminosity of a location, and determining that the first luminosity of the location exceeds a luminosity threshold. The method may include determining, based on the first luminosity exceeding the luminosity threshold, a second luminosity to apply to lights of the vehicle while the vehicle is at the location, the second luminosity greater than zero. The method may include applying the second luminosity to the lights while the vehicle is at the location.

A mobile device, vehicular electronic device, method and medium thereof are disclosed. The mobile device includes a communicator, display, memory/medium, and processor. The processor implements one method, including: receive context information and driving state information from the vehicular device, generate a control interface based on the received information, and output the control interface. The vehicular control device includes a communicator, memory/medium, and processor, which transmits the context information and drive state information to the mobile device, receives input information generated through the control interface as transmitted by the mobile device, and executes a corresponding control operation based on the input information.

Systems, methods, and computer readable storage media provide dynamic chassis and tire status indications associated with a vehicle. Lift axle status data may be graphically represented by a lift axle indicator dynamically provided in a shared notification/messaging space positioned within the driver's line of sight during a lift axle transition. The lift axle indicator may include a side-view representation of the vehicle including a plurality of axle sections indicating the status of each axle. The lift axle indicator may be suppressed when air pressure is stabilized. Additionally, a graphical representation of data associated with statuses (e.g., air pressure, temperature) of each tire may be provided in a top-down view representation of the vehicle including its associated tire/axle configuration and the tire pressure for each tire. The graphical representation may be configured to reflect the correct number of axles and tires per position, and may further include a tractor versus trailer designation.

A display control device is formed to include a gearshift operation detecting unit to detect an operation of a gearshift of a vehicle and output gear switch information indicating a switch content of a gear position of the vehicle accompanying the operation of the gearshift, and a display control unit to acquire display data corresponding to the switch content indicated by the gear switch information output from the gearshift operation detecting unit from a display data storage unit that stores display data of an image illustrating a transition of a vehicle state when the gear position of the vehicle is switched for each of switch patterns of the gear position, and display an image on an instrument panel of the vehicle depending on the acquired display data.

A control unit for displaying a traffic situation on a screen of an ego vehicle is designed to display a first traffic participant symbol for a first traffic participant in a first sub-region of the screen and a second traffic participant symbol for a second traffic participant in a second sub-region of the screen. The control unit is additionally designed to determine that the first traffic participant symbol and the second traffic participant symbol are approaching each other in a specified manner on the basis of a change in the position of the second traffic participant relative to the first traffic participant. In response thereto, the control unit is further designed to at least partly hide the first and/or the second traffic participant symbol.

A display device for a vehicle includes: a display unit including a display surface that is configured to display information to an occupant of a vehicle; a display control unit that is configured to set the information displayed at the display surface and a display area in which the information is displayed at the display surface; a drive unit that is configured to drive the display unit in and out of an interior member that is disposed in a vehicle cabin; and a drive control unit that is configured to control the drive unit such that the display area and an exposed area, of the display surface, which is exposed from the interior member are proportional to each other.

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.

An example method includes detecting a potential threat to a vehicle that is external to the vehicle, determining a severity level of the potential threat and a location of the potential threat relative to the vehicle, and displaying an indication of the potential threat on an electronic display in a particular portion of the electronic display corresponding to the location and with a particular display attribute corresponding to the severity level. The particular portion is one of a plurality of different portions of the electronic display each corresponding to different threat locations, and the particular display attribute is one of a plurality of different display attributes corresponding to different severity levels. A corresponding system that detects and displays notifications of potential threats is also disclosed.

A vehicle display apparatus includes: a meter display which displays a vehicle traveling information; a locator, a surrounding monitoring sensor, and an in-vehicle communication device which acquire vehicle position information and vehicle surrounding information; and a HCU. The HCU displays, based on the vehicle position information and the vehicle surrounding information, a front area image including the vehicle on the meter display when an autonomous driving function is not demonstrated, and displays the front area image and a rear area image including a following vehicle in a continuous and additional manner on the meter display when the autonomous driving function is demonstrated.

An information provision device for a vehicle allows information to be provided to a user appropriately, and includes an onboard device having a first control means that operates a display unit, and an external device having a second control means that outputs information from outside the vehicle to the first control means. The display unit includes a first region in which vehicle-status information is displayed and a second region in which the information from outside the vehicle is displayed. The first control means can determine priorities for the vehicle-status information and the information from outside the vehicle. The first control means operates the display unit such that either the first region or the second region, which contains high-priority information, is larger than the other. If prescribed conditions occur, the first control means operates the display unit such that the region containing low-priority information is larger than the other.
