An instrument display area of the digital dashboard can display a general mode user interface and a navigation mode user interface which are mutually switchable. An indicator area is beside the instrument display area, wherein the vehicular data receiving unit can obtain the vehicular information of the motorcycle/scooter and the vehicular information of the motorcycle/scooter shown in the general mode user interface and the indicator area. The wireless communication unit can obtain navigation data and satellite positioning coordinates provided by wireless communication devices such as smart phones, or the satellite positioning coordinates can be obtained through a satellite positioning unit in the meter integration system to provide navigation functions under the navigation mode user interface.

An apparatus and a method for connecting a mobile camera device to a vehicle-mounted display apparatus, wherein the mobile camera device is controlled both by the driver operating the mobile camera device as well as by additional information regarding the state of the vehicle, wherein the additional information is provided by vehicle sensors. The information from the driver and the vehicle is processed by an application program on the mobile camera device and the mobile camera device is controlled. The mobile camera device can display images and/or videos and process the images and/or videos by way of the application program. The information to be processed can be displayed on the display of the vehicle-mounted display apparatus.

A head unit and a method for controlling the same are disclosed, which output the audio streams generated from a plurality of devices connected to a single head unit through Bluetooth communication. The head unit of a vehicle includes a Bluetooth communicator and a controller. The Bluetooth communicator is configured to be communicably connected to a plurality of Bluetooth devices. The controller is configured to allocate priority information based on a preset reference to the respective Bluetooth devices, and control an audio route of each of the plurality of Bluetooth devices according to the priority information so as to output all audio streams generated by the plurality of Bluetooth devices.

A method, performed by an on-board diagnostic (OBD) interface coupled to a diagnostic port of a vehicle, including receiving, via a wireless network, a message containing text from a user device associated with a user; converting the text contained in the message into an audio file that corresponds to an audio reminder; detecting a key-on event for the vehicle; establishing, responsive to the key-on event, a first wireless connection to a speaker device located in the vehicle; sending, via the first wireless connection, a notification to the speaker device that the audio reminder is pending; terminating, after the notification is sent, the first wireless connection; establishing a second wireless connection to the speaker device; and transferring the audio file to the speaker device via the second wireless connection.

A gesture recognition and control device recognizes a mobile terminal and ascertains a current graphical user interface generated by a display device of the mobile terminal. The gesture recognition and control device provides an output signal describing, as display content, the graphical user interface generated by the display device of the mobile terminal, and transmits the output signal to an output apparatus that can be worn on the head for outputting the display content in a predefined output region in the interior of the motor vehicle as part of augmented reality or virtual reality output by the output apparatus. During the process of outputting the display content, the gesture recognition and control device recognizes a spatial gesture of the user, generates a remote control signal for triggering an operating function of the mobile terminal, and transmits the remote control signal to a control device of the recognized mobile terminal.

Systems, methods, and devices for detecting the presence and location of a mobile communication device within a vehicle includes a monitoring device mounted within the vehicle, the monitoring device includes a primary antenna for detecting cellular data signals originating from within the vehicle. One or more external antenna components mounted at different locations within the vehicle further help to pinpoint the location of detected cellular data signals and correspondingly the location of the mobile device. The external antenna components further help to eliminate and distinguish cellular data signals coming from outside the vehicle and from other mobile communication devices that are not within the driver space of the vehicle.

Disclosed are a vehicle and method of controlling a display therein. Herein, the vehicle supports auto driving. The present invention includes sensors, a display including a display area formed on a glass of the vehicle and a controller configured to cause the display to display data obtained via at least one of the sensors on the display area based on an operation mode of the vehicle and vehicle passenger information.

Hardware and software mobile and stationary combination of MGNs (Mobile-Go-Networks), combining cell phones and all smart electronics, in communication with and share each other's functions through hardware and software solutions, including methods to prevent unwanted camera and audio snooping through unwanted phone malware. The MGNs can exist as single all-in-one MGNs that can (also) connect with much larger MGNs.

A motor vehicle is disclosed that includes at least one linear lighting means for directly and/or indirectly lighting a vehicle interior. A position-sensing unit senses ego information describing a position and an orientation of the motor vehicle. A control device determines, from location information describing the position of a person, and from the ego information, direction information describing a direction of the person in relation to the motor vehicle (1), selects, in accordance with the direction information, a sub-group of lighting segments that includes at least one lighting segment to be activated, and activates the lighting segment belonging to the sub-group in accordance with a configuration, which specifies the lighting brightness and/or the lighting color of the lighting segment, and which visualizes the position of the person.

An information processing device includes an interface configured to acquire position information of a vehicle which picks up a user and a user surrounding image which is obtained by imaging surroundings of the user using a terminal device carried by the user and a control unit configured to generate user surrounding data including data on an object present near the user based on the user surrounding image. The control unit is configured to generate an image based on the assumption that the user is seen from the vehicle as a virtual user image based on the position information of the vehicle and the user surrounding data and to output the virtual user image to the vehicle.
