Vision system for vehicle
A vision system for a vehicle includes a forward viewing camera and an image processor operable to process image data captured by the camera. Responsive at least in part to processing of captured image data, lane markers of a road along which the vehicle is traveling are detected, other vehicles are detected, and road curvature of the road along which the vehicle is traveling is determined. The vehicle includes a global positioning system and a vehicle communication system operable for wireless communication with an external control located remote from the vehicle. The current geographic location of the vehicle and data derived from captured image data are wirelessly communicated to the external control. The received current geographic location and data are processed at the external control and information that is derived, at least in part, from such processing is wirelessly communicated from the external control to the equipped vehicle.
OPTOELECTRONIC DEVICE
An optoelectronic device, in particular an at least partially transparent pane for example of a vehicle, comprises a first layer, in particular an intermediate layer arranged between a cover layer and a carrier layer, at least one electronic or optoelectronic component, which is at least partially or completely embedded in the first layer and at least one structured conductor layer. A first portion of the conductor layer is arranged on an upper surface of the first layer and a second portion of the conductor layer is arranged on a top surface of the electronic or optoelectronic component and is in contact with an electric contact of the electronic or optoelectronic component. The electric contact, in particular a contact pad, is arranged on the top surface.
Dash line pointer
A gauge assembly having a pointer arm extending away from a hub is supported for movement about an axis to indicate a current vehicle condition. This is accomplished when the pointer points to a specific location and telltales on the gauge surface. The pointer arm has a pointer arm viewing surface with one or more clear portions and one or more illuminated portions along the length of the pointer arm viewing surface. The pointer arm further includes one or more raised steps formed on a bottom surface of the pointer arm located opposite the viewing surface of the pointer arm. The one or more raised steps is aligned with the one or more illuminated portions and the one or more raised steps have a reflective surface for reflecting light through the one more illuminated portions on the viewing surface.
LED INDICATING DEVICE, IN PARTICULAR FOR A VEHICLE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
An LED indicating device, in particular for a vehicle instrument cluster, has a plate provided with at least one light permeable portion adapted to be illuminated by a plurality of LED sources arranged in a position spaced apart from such a rear surface of such a light permeable portion; the device has a body which is arranged between the LED sources and the rear surface of the light permeable portion and has a first surface facing the LED sources and a second surface facing the rear surface; the body consists of a matrix made of a light impermeable material and of a plurality of light permeable elements, which are embedded in the matrix in positions spaced apart from one another and continuously extend from the first surface to the second surface.
Anti-peep display screen, vehicle-mounted display device and vehicle
Provided is an anti-peep screen, including a passive LCD module and a color LCD module stacked along a first direction; the passive LCD module includes a first electrode layer, a liquid crystal layer and a second electrode layer, the first electrode layer comprises a first sub-electrode, the second electrode layer comprises a second sub-electrode, and the first sub-electrode is opposite to the second sub-electrode and configured to input different voltages, so as to control a light transmission state of the passive LCD module. The anti-peep display screen of the present application solves the problems of poor display effect and single anti-peep function of existing anti-peep display screens by introducing a passive LCD module. Also provided is a vehicle-mounted display device and a vehicle.
Method and apparatus for vehicular light fixtures
A lighting device is provided for controlling the photometric distribution of light emitted by two or more LEDs. The lighting device may be integrated with a control system of the vehicle and may be controlled by a remote controller. The lighting device may be capable of being operated in one or more modes of operation based on operating conditions, user input, or both. Operating conditions may include vehicle conditions, environmental conditions, and user conditions. The controller may operate a software application to enable the user to modify, control, or otherwise regulate any mode of operation or other feature of the lighting system.
