Techniques for receiving and processing sensor data captured by a fleet of vehicle are discussed herein. In some examples, a fleet dashcam system can receive sensor data captured by electronic devices on a fleet of vehicles and can use that data to detect collision and near-collision events. The data of the collision or near-collision event can be used to determine a simulation scenario and a response of an autonomous vehicle control to the simulation scenario and/or it can be used to create a collision heat map to aid in operation of an autonomous vehicle.

In order to provide a head-up display that is capable of reliably displaying a display image, the present invention is provided with: a display device that projects display light; a field lens that adjusts the direction of the display light; a thin-plate screen that has a rear surface for receiving the light emitted from the field lens and a front surface on which a display image is displayed; a screen holder that holds the screen; and a main holder that accommodates the field lens and the screen held by the screen holder.

A vehicle console includes a trim ring disposed over a periphery of a housing. The trim ring includes a polymeric material and is electrically conductive and grounded. A proximity switch assembly is retained in the housing. The proximity switch assembly includes a proximity sensor proximate a sensing pad for generating an activation field. The sensing pad is proximate the trim ring.

A vehicle includes a cockpit module skin, a cross-bar and a vehicle tracking unit. The cockpit module skin separates a passenger compartment into a first area and a second area. The cross-bar is supported to a vehicle body component in the first area. The vehicle tracking unit has an electric tracking module and a mounting bracket supporting the electric tracking module to the cross-bar.

An assembly includes an airbag inflatable to an inflated position. The assembly includes an airbag housing supporting the airbag, the airbag housing having a side wall that is movable outward to a deployed position upon inflation of the airbag. The assembly includes a display screen moveable from an initial position to a stowed position, the display screen operatively coupled to the side wall such that movement of the side wall to the deployed position moves the display screen to the stowed position.

An adhesively bonded dashboard including a solar module, and methods of manufacture pertaining thereto, are provided. The dashboard may be decorative in terms of an aesthetically pleasing texture and/or color. The solar cells contained therein may be curved along one axis of curvature to form one or more desirable shapes.

A backup camera system for monitoring an area around a vehicle. In one aspect, the system comprises a camera assembly, a display device and a stand for supporting the display device; the camera assembly comprising: (i) a camera adapted to produce an image signal corresponding to a perceived image, (ii) means for supplying power; (iii) a base having first and second holes that are configured and spaced from one another so as to facilitate attachment to the vehicle using the vehicle's license plate mounting bolts, (iv) a transmitter operably coupled to the camera for wirelessly transmitting the image signal; and the display device comprising: (i) a receiver for receiving the wirelessly transmitted image signal, (ii) means for supplying power, (iii) an image processing unit operably coupled to the receiver for converting the received image signal into a display image that is displayed on the display device, the display image corresponding to the perceived image. The backup camera system can form a retrofit kit.

A support and holding assembly for a portable electronic device has a support member with a coupling portion at one end to couple the portable electronic device in a reference position; the support member can be moved in relation to a support structure between a withdrawn rest position and an advanced position, when acted on by a first transmission, and carries a retention member that can be moved to and from an engaged position, in which it locks, in use, the portable electronic device in the reference position.

The disclosed vehicle Camera System captures live video and audio to ensure driver protection. Vehicle Camera System introduces a novel, high-quality, vehicle camera system to be mounted on multiple parts of the vehicle, including on the dashboard, side-view mirrors, rear-view mirror, and rear of the vehicle. These cameras are activated as soon as the user pushes the wireless GPS tracking operator button down. The button is located on the inside of the steering wheel and enables the entire system with no abrupt movement. The Vehicle Camera System ensures a fully operational, vehicle camera recording system, and, therefore, guarantees that no victim is wrongfully convicted and is capable of providing exact evidence of the events that occur.

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle cradle assembly including a first support unit disposed on an inner surface of a cabin of a vehicle and configured to support an electronic component, an accessory, and a combination thereof, a cover disposed on an upper portion of the first support unit and configured to selectively open or close a front side of the first support unit, a winding unit disposed on the upper portion of the first support unit, coupled to an end of the cover, and configured to operate the cover to selectively open or close the front side of the first support unit, and a button unit fixed to the inner surface of the cabin of the vehicle and configured to control an operation of the winding unit by applying power to the winding unit.
