A method and device, for a vehicle that at times is automatically guided by an autonomous guidance in which an intervention by the driver is not required, includes a continual checking of whether the automatic vehicle guidance is able to be maintained in the future or whether it must be terminated. In the event that the automatic vehicle guidance must be terminated, the vehicle is transitioned into a stopping procedure. A standstill position of the vehicle in the stopping process is pre-calculated and a warning triangle mounted on the vehicle is launched, so that the warning triangle is positioned at a predefined minimum distance from the standstill position.

There is provided a method for activating warning lights in a vehicle, the method comprising: determining a yaw rate of the vehicle; determining a sideslip angle of the vehicle; comparing the yaw rate to a predetermined yaw rate threshold value; comparing the sideslip angle to a predetermined sideslip angle threshold value; and f the yaw rate exceeds the predetermined yaw rate value; if the sideslip angle exceeds the predetermined sideslip angle value; and if it is determined that the vehicle reaches a standstill within a predetermined time after the yaw rate and sideslip values have been exceeded, activating warning lights of the vehicle. There is also provided a system configured to perform the above described method.

A system, method and storage medium for providing an emergency lighting includes generating, by a controller, a driving control signal; receiving, by a light source, the driving control signal; and emitting, by the light source, light based on the driving control signal. Intensity of the light emitted from the light source repeatedly ramps up and ramps down with a first period based on the driving control signal.

An autonomous driving control system and a method thereof are provided. The autonomous driving control system includes a strategy performing device that generates and performs a stop strategy of a vehicle on the basis of a target stop location, when a critical situation occurs during autonomous driving, a behavior controller that controls a behavior of the vehicle depending on the stop strategy, and an emergency module controller that runs a predetermined emergency module, when the critical situation occurs.

A driver state detection unit detects a state of the driver of a host vehicle. For example, a drowsing state of the driver is detected. An outward warning device performs an outward warning operation pertaining to a warning directed at another vehicle traveling in the vicinity of the host vehicle. Then, an inward warning device performs an inward warning operation pertaining to a warning directed at the driver of the host vehicle.

A vehicle notification system is disclosed. The system comprises a light generating layer conforming to a surface of a decklid configured to enclose a storage compartment. The light generating layer comprises a plurality of LEDs in a semiconductor ink operable to emit a first emission. The system further comprises a controller configured to selectively activate the plurality of LEDs in response to a first signal from a decklid ajar indicator and a second signal from an emergency lighting module.
