A system and method perform object detection-based directional control of light transmission or sound transmission from a moving platform. The method includes receiving information about one or more objects that are proximate to the platform, and processing the information to obtain processed information, the processed information including a location of each of the one or more objects. Determining an importance and urgency among the one or more objects with regard to the light transmission or the sound transmission is based on the processed information. Controlling a light source or a sound source of the platform to respectively perform the light transmission or the sound transmission is based on the importance and the urgency.

A hazard alert system includes a vehicle that has a back side. A sign is removably coupled to said vehicle when the vehicle is parked on the side of a roadway. Thus, the sign may alert oncoming traffic to the vehicle. The sign includes an arrow. The sign is oriented in a selected manner such that the arrow points toward a selected side of the vehicle.

A vehicle visibility increasing system includes a vehicle having a rear window and a front window. A pair of light emitters is provided. One of the light emitters is positioned adjacent to and is directed outwardly of the rear window. One of the light emitters is positioned adjacent to and is directed outwardly of the front window. A power cord is electrically coupled to each of the light emitters. A power plug is electrically coupled to the power cord. A control is in electrical communication with the power cord and is actuated to turn the light emitters or off.

A warning message delivery apparatus of a vehicle, may deploy an emergency tripod by opening a trunk lid to deliver a warning message to a vehicle entering the rear upon the occurrence of an emergency situation, and secures visibility of the emergency tripod to reduce the accident occurrence possibility.

This invention relates in general to the field of safety devices, and more particularly, but not by way of limitation, to systems and methods for providing advanced warning and risk evasion when hazardous conditions exist. In one embodiment, a vicinity monitoring unit is provided for monitoring, for example, oncoming traffic near a construction zone. In some embodiments, the vicinity monitoring unit may be mounted onto a construction vehicle to monitor nearby traffic and send a warning signal if hazardous conditions exist. In some embodiments, personnel tracking units may be worn by construction workers and the personnel tracking units may be in communication with the vicinity monitoring unit. In some embodiments, a base station is provided for monitoring activities taking place in or near a construction site including monitoring the locations of various personnel and vehicles within the construction site.

A display system mounted on one or more sides of a public transportation vehicle (e.g., a bus). The display system is interfaced with a portable computing device (e.g., a personal data assistant), where the portable computing device provides updated messages to be displayed on a display panel. The display system includes at least one display panel mounted on one side of a bus, facing outwards such that the display panels may be readily seen when the bus goes around. The display panel is mainly for displaying messages provided by the portable computing device but also for displaying default messages in a local storage device.

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.
