An electronic device and a method are described. The electronic device is adapted to be installed on a handlebar of a vehicle, the electronic device comprising: a processor; a communication module; a display comprising a halo-shaped display; a memory for storing therein executable instructions, the instructions upon being processed by the processor, causing the electronic device to: receive, via the communication module, navigational data from a mobile device, the navigational data being associated with a circular visual signal indication, the circular visual signal indication being indicative of at least one of (i) an upcoming directional instruction and (ii) a distance between a current location and an upcoming location associated with the upcoming directional instruction; and, cause to display, on the halo-shaped display, of the circular visual signal indication.

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.

The present invention relates to a rotating head-up display device, which includes a base, a rotating module, a display module and a reflective module,

The fixed portion of the rotating module fixed to the base and the rotating portion of the rotating module fixed to the display module are provided as image rotating mechanism, and the adjustment module is provided to operate for rotating and projecting enlarged images, to thereby conveniently rotate images corresponding to horizontal screen and vertical screen of a smartphone or a tablet.

A vehicle display control device includes a timing determination unit that determines timing when it is authenticated that the mobile terminal is an object that can provide the mobile screen information after the start of processing of connection between an HCU and the mobile terminal. A display control unit displays a during-connection-processing image indicating that connection with the mobile terminal is being processed, on the display device after the timing is determined by the timing determination unit until the mobile screen information becomes possible to be displayed on the display device. The display control unit does not display the during-connection-processing image on the display device after the connection processing is started until the timing is determined by the timing determination unit.

A mobile device is provided. The mobile device includes: a display; a communicator configured to communicate with a terminal apparatus which displays items classified into a plurality of groups in a form of a list; and when the mobile device is connected with the terminal apparatus for communication, a controller configured to hop over the groups of the items displayed on the terminal apparatus according to a touch manipulation which is performed on a screen of the display. Accordingly, the mobile device can provide various services by being interlocked with the terminal apparatus mounted in a vehicle.

A vehicle control device that includes a communication unit that is configured to (i) communicate with a mobile device and (ii) receive data including user input that is received at the mobile device; and a processor that is configured to: based on receipt of the data including the user input, determine whether a vehicle with which the mobile device is associated operates in a manual driving mode or an autonomous driving mode and whether the user input received at the mobile device satisfies a preset condition; and based on determinations that the vehicle is in the manual driving mode and that the user input received at the mobile device satisfies the preset condition, switch the vehicle from the manual driving mode to the autonomous driving mode is disclosed.

The present invention provides an image display apparatus mounted in a vehicle, which includes a communication unit for transmitting/receiving data to/from an external mobile terminal, and a controller for generating Internet access information including Internet access environment information about the image display apparatus and controlling the communication unit to transmit the generated Internet access information to the mobile terminal, wherein the Internet access information includes at least one of Internet access state information representing whether the image display apparatus is connected to the Internet, and roaming state information representing whether a roaming service is used for Internet access of the image display apparatus. According to a mobile terminal, image display apparatus mounted in a vehicle and data processing method using the same, Internet access information can be efficiently transmitted between the mobile terminal and the image display apparatus.

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.

A method includes: establishing a connection between a mobile communication device and a controller area network (CAN) bus in a CAN of a vehicle; receiving, via the established connection, information from the mobile communication device, including image information acquired by a camera of the mobile communication device; displaying vehicle information and a representation of an interface of the mobile communication device based on the information received from the mobile communication device in a display area of the vehicle; receiving input for controlling a function of the mobile communication device; and controlling, via the established connection, the function of the mobile communication device according to the received input.

Embodiments can provide a dynamic housing system in a transportation apparatus for facilitating a user or users of the transportation apparatus to place portable devices of different sizes into the dynamic housing. The dynamic housing may comprise a device detector configured to detect a presence of a portable device in the housing, a Bluetooth connection unit configured to connect to the portable device via a Bluetooth link when the portable device is detected as being present in the dynamic housing and/or any other components. In some embodiments, the dynamic housing may be a sliding small drawer on a dashboard of the transportation apparatus.
