TRANSPORT SAFETY

An example operation includes one or more of determining automatically, by a processor based on data received from at least one sensor on a transport, a driving behavior associated with an operator of the transport over at least one first period of time as the operator's normal driving behavior, determining automatically by the processor a difference between the operator's normal driving behavior and a second driving behavior currently occurring over a second period of time as the operator's current driving behavior, and in the case the difference between the operator's normal driving behavior and the operator's current driving behavior indicates the operator's current driving behavior is unsafe, automatically guiding at least one of the operator and the transport to operate the transport in a safe driving behavior.

AUTOMOBILE SAFETY LIGHT SYSTEM AND METHODS OF USE
20210291725 · 2021-09-23 ·

A vehicle safety system comprising a series of lights. One set of lights in a prominent turn indicator device indicates to the driver in a more prominent way whether the driver has indicated a turn. The turn indicator lights are either heads-up on a windshield, visible to the driver atop the dashboard or on an interior vehicle pillar, and away from vehicle instrument clusters. Another set of lights on a seatbelt compliance light device indicate to motorists external to the vehicle whether one or more occupants of a vehicle is in seatbelt. Each light system can be used to improve both the safety of the driver, pedestrians, surrounding vehicles, and vehicle occupants.

Digital license plate system

A digital license plate supporting both access and analysis of vehicle relevant information is disclosed. The digital license plate includes sensors that provide status data to a processor in the digital license plate. A power path control module can initiate power state changes and adjust power depending on system state as determined by at least one the multiple sensors. In some embodiments a temperature control module is connected to a temperature sensor and configured to modify heat relevant display parameters as critical temperatures are approached.

Apparatus for managing vehicle intrusion, system having the same and method thereof

The present disclosure provides an apparatus for managing a vehicle intrusion, a system having the same, and a method thereof. The apparatus for managing a vehicle intrusion includes a processor that determines presence of an occupant who intrudes into a vehicle and notifies a user of the presence of the occupant who intrudes into the vehicle, and storage that stores a result of detecting the presence of the occupant obtained by the processor. Accordingly, it is possible to detect whether an intruder who intrudes into a vehicle before, after or while a user gets in the vehicle is present and inform the user of the fact, thereby assuring safety of the user and safety of the vehicle.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SURVEILLANCE
20210116913 · 2021-04-22 ·

Provided herein is a system and method implemented on a vehicle. The system comprises one or more sensors, one or more processors, and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the system to perform: obtaining data from the one or more sensors; comparing the obtained data from the one or more sensors with reference data; determining whether one or more characteristics of the obtained data deviate from corresponding characteristics of the reference data by more than a respective threshold; in response to determining that one or more characteristics of the data obtained deviate from corresponding characteristics of the reference data by more than a respective threshold, determining an action of the vehicle based on amounts of the one or more deviations; and performing the determined action.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING A FORMER CONVICT OF AN INTOXICATION-RELATED OFFENSE
20210046865 · 2021-02-18 · ·

A system and method are disclosed for preventing a restricted individual from operating a motor vehicle. The system monitors a speed of the individual via a smart device associated with the individual. The system activates a monitoring function based on a detected speed of the device, which may evidence the individual riding in a motor vehicle. The system them verifies that the user of the device is the restricted individual through a variety of different identification methods. Once identified, the system accesses various data sources associated with one or more ride applications running on the smart device in order to determine whether the restricted individual has requested a ride from a third party during a relevant time period. After analyzing the data, a determination is made as to whether the individual is driving, or whether more information is needed.

Irradiation system and irradiation method

A second light device (4b) starts emission of a light pattern B after a first light device (4a) has started emission of a light pattern A. Elements included in the light pattern B and an element included in the light pattern A are arranged on the same straight line.

Threat detection and mitigation apparatus and use thereof

A vehicle mounted apparatus adapted to assess a threat level of a suspect and to guide a police officer in responding to the suspect and having a CPU, a plurality of sensors, and an output device. The sensors include vision, sound, proximity, speed, and Xray vision sensors. The apparatus is adapted to read a vehicle's license plate, perform Xray scanning of a vehicle's inner compartments, and to perform facial recognition and weapons detection. The apparatus is adapted to combine sensed data with known data of suspects and risks to intelligently output a threat/risk assessment. The apparatus may automatically inform a central monitoring station of the threat/risk assessment and automatically send an appropriate level of police backup. The apparatus is preferably adapted to automatically monitor proximate moving vehicles during a police stop, and upon detecting a speeding vehicle, to automatically respond with an appropriate level of response.

SYSTEM AND METHOD TO INDICATE A VEHICLE STATUS
20210023985 · 2021-01-28 ·

One general aspect includes a method to exhibit a vehicle status, the method including: receiving a signal that the vehicle status be exhibited at a vehicle; and based on the signal, generating a vehicle status indicator that corresponds to a status of the vehicle, the vehicle status indicator being a visual cue visible in an environment surrounding the vehicle, where the vehicle status indicator is generated by an antenna module located on a portion of the vehicle.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR RENDERING CONTENT ON THE EXTERIOR OF A VEHICLE
20210009032 · 2021-01-14 ·

A display system for use on the exterior of a vehicle having a display and a processor. The processor is configured to determine when the vehicle is stopped or in motion, such that the processor directs the display system to display an image based on that determination.
