An interactive vehicle safety system having capabilities to improve peripheral vision, provide warning, and improve reaction time for operators of vehicles. For example, the interactive vehicle safety system may have capabilities for portraying objects, which are being blocked by any of the structural pillars and/or mirrors of a vehicle (such as a truck, van, train, etc.). The interactive vehicle safety system disclosed may comprise one or more image capturing devices (such as camera, sensor, laser), distance and object sensors (such as ultrasonic sensor, LIDAR radar sensor, photoelectric sensor, and infrared sensor), a real-time image processing of an object, and one or more display systems (such as LCD or LED displays). The interactive vehicle safety system may give a seamless 360-degree front panoramic view to a driver.

A method, an apparatus and a storage medium for evacuating a person around an autonomous vehicle are proposed. The method includes: obtaining data about surrounding of the autonomous vehicle during the driving of the autonomous vehicle; recognizing a person with onlooker intention within a predetermined range around the autonomous vehicle according to the data obtained; evacuating the person with onlooker intention in a predetermined manner. The technical solution may be applied to ensure normal driving of the autonomous vehicle.

One or more indicators provide an indication of the energy source of power for one or more vehicles. The indicators may be positioned on a vehicle and/or on other structures such as parking garages, tunnels, and entrance gates. The indicators may be visual and/or acoustic. On a vehicle the indicators are positioned to most likely be intact during and after an accident and provide a predetermined indication that identifies an energy source that provides power for the vehicle.

A switch assembly for a vehicle includes a first switch and a second switch that is adjacent the first switch. The first and second switches are actuatable independently of actuation of the other one of the switches. A switch actuator presents a surface in an interior of the vehicle for a user to press/contact to selectively actuate the first and second switches. A processor is configured to initiate a communication function (e.g., an emergency call) based on determining when the first and second switches have been actuated in a predefined manner (e.g., that the first and second switches have been actuated simultaneously or individually actuated within a predefined time).

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.

In an embodiment a fire extinguishing system includes a plurality of fire extinguishing injectors filled with fire extinguishing chemicals, the fire extinguishing injectors configured to be installed in a vehicle to be able to inject the fire extinguishing chemical to a tire and a fire detection line installed to connect between the plurality of fire extinguishing injectors, wherein each of the fire extinguishing injectors comprises a pressure generator in which a pressure generation chemical is installed and a tank is filled with the fire extinguishing chemical, the tank having a plurality of injection holes, wherein the fire detection line is connected to each pressure generator to generate injection pressure due to the pressure generation chemical when a fire is detected through the fire detection line, and wherein each tank is coupled to the pressure generator to allow the fire extinguishing chemical in the tank to be injected through the injection holes due to action of the injection pressure generated by the pressure generator.

A method for operating a beacon light of a machine is described. The method includes activating, by a processing unit, the beacon light based on a signal to indicate an operational state of the machine. The signal corresponds to one or more machine parameters in the operational state of the machine.
