A camera system for a vehicle includes a camera module having an imager assembly, a main circuit board and a camera housing, with the imager assembly including (i) an imager disposed on an imager circuit board and (ii) a lens assembly having a lens barrel accommodating a lens. A bracket is configured to attach at the vehicle windshield and to receive the camera module. The lens barrel extends from a portion of the lens assembly that is enclosed by the camera housing through an aperture to protrude outside the camera housing. With the camera module received by the bracket and with the bracket attached at the windshield, a forward portion of the camera housing is below the lens barrel. A separate stray light shield is disposed at the forward portion of the camera housing to reduce incidence of stray light at the lens.

The present disclosure refers to a method for operating a user terminal (7) of an agricultural machine, comprising providing a user terminal (7) in a control system (3) of an agricultural machine, the user terminal (7) connected to a power supply and configured to transmit, through a control bus (6), control signals to functional elements (10a; 10b) of the agricultural machine; enabling operation of the user terminal (7), after a period of time the user terminal was turned-off before, comprising enabling a user control mode of operation of the user terminal (7); running software applications in the user terminal (7); enabling a display device of the user terminal (7); and enabling the control bus (6), thereby, operating the control bus (6) in a bus control mode allowing for transmission of the control signals through the control bus (6); controlling operation of one of the functional elements (10a; 10b) of the agricultural machine in the user control mode of operation; in response to a user input, generating present control signals; transmitting the present control signals to the control unit assigned to the one of the functional elements (10a; 10b) through the control bus (6); and operating the functional elements (10a; 10b) according to the present control signals; disabling the user control mode of operation and enabling a standby mode of operation for the user terminal (7), comprising continuing with running one or all of the software applications in the user terminal (7); disabling the display device of the user terminal (7); and disabling the control bus (6); and re-enabling the control mode of operation for the user terminal (7). Further, an agricultural machine is provided. (FIG. 1)

A method of operating a display device for a motor vehicle having a plurality of display areas includes providing a plurality of non-contact input operations where a first non-contact input operation of a user is detected and verified by a second non-contact input operation of the user in order to select at least one display element on a first display area, and at least one third non-contact input operation of the user is detected.

The invention relates to systems and methods for executing functions on a mobile device based on gestures and commands of a user inside a vehicle. The system comprises a head-up display that reflects the screen of a mobile device and a motion-detection device connected to the mobile device. The motion-detection device is configured to gather information on the movement of the user's fingers regardless of whether or not the user's hands are on the steering wheel of the vehicle. The mobile device is configured to classify the movement of the user's fingers in a predetermined gesture associated with a predefined instruction, based on which a function is executed on the mobile device.

A control apparatus that controls a display apparatus of a mobile body to which a remote operation service is provided from a remote operation apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire information that is generated by the remote operation apparatus and is displayed on a display apparatus of the remote operation apparatus, and a control unit configured to display the information on the display apparatus of the mobile body.

According to one embodiment, a display system includes a display device that displays an image rearward of a vehicle, a first illuminance sensor that detects the brightness around the vehicle, and a second illuminance sensor that detects the intensity of the light emitted onto the front surface of the display device, and the display device includes a housing with an opening on the front side, an electro-optic layer with a transmissive-reflective layer that transmits a portion of incident light and reflects another portion of the incident light, the electro-optic layer being configured to vary the reflectivity of the incident light, a display placed on the rear side of the electro-optic layer and configured to display at least a portion of the rearward image of the vehicle, and a control circuit that controls the brightness of the display based on a value of at least one of first illuminance and second illuminance.

A vehicle infotainment system is provided.
