Bracket for mounting light to steering arm
A light mount for mounting a light to a steering arm on an axle may include a bracket designed to attach to the steering arm; and a bracket orifice extending through a portion of the bracket, the bracket orifice sized to accommodate a light pod fastener extending from a light pod, wherein the bracket and, thus, the light pod rotate with rotation of the steering arm. The bracket may have various forms and may be a Z-shaped bracket, a mounting perch integrated into the structure of a steering arm, or a mounting plate designed to be attached to an existing steering arm.

Notification device
A notification device includes: a notification-sound output portion provided in a vehicle and configured to output a notification sound toward the outside of the vehicle; a notification display portion provided in the vehicle and configured to output a notification display toward the outside of the vehicle; a notification controlling portion configured to control the notification sound of the notification-sound output portion and the notification display of the notification display portion; and a stop-state determination portion configured to determine whether the vehicle during the automatic driving enters a stop state or not. When the stop-state determination portion determines that the vehicle during the automatic driving enters the stop state, the notification controlling portion outputs a stop-time notification sound as the notification sound by the notification-sound output portion and outputs a stop-time notification display as the notification display by the notification display portion.

Method and control unit for adjusting a light level of at least one headlamp of a vehicle
A method for adjusting a light-level of at least one headlamp for a vehicle. The method includes a reading in; a determining; an ascertaining; and a providing. In the reading in, a position-signal is read in, which represents the current-position of the vehicle. In the determining, a topography-signal is determined using the position-signal, which represents a stored item of information about a roadway-topography at the current position, especially in the case of a curvature and/or a drop of a roadway. In the ascertaining, an angle of inclination of the headlamp to be adjusted for the optimal illumination of the roadway in front of the vehicle is ascertained using the topography-signal. In the providing, an actuating-signal is provided for an adjustment mechanism of the headlamp using the ascertained-angle of inclination to tilt the headlamp to the ascertained-angle of inclination so that the light level of the headlamp is adjustable.
Apparatus and method for controlling a vehicle light with adjustable light output using OBD data
An apparatus for controlling a vehicle light with adjustable light output is provided, whereby the apparatus includes a processor configured to receive on-board diagnostics (OBD) data and to determine a light output mode for the vehicle light in accordance with the OBD data, whereby the OBD data indicates a vehicle condition. The apparatus includes a transceiver coupled to the processor that is configured to signal the light output mode to the vehicle light. A method of controlling a vehicle light is provided that includes receiving OBD data from an OBD system in a vehicle, whereby the OBD data determines a vehicle condition, determining a light output mode of the vehicle light in accordance with the OBD data, and sending to the vehicle light appropriate commands for adjusting the light output in accordance with the determined light output mode.
