An information display device attachable to a structure includes a plate-shaped body, a display panel, and a surface member. The plate-shaped body is a part of the structure and has a first attaching surface, a second attaching surface opposite to the first attaching surface, and a side portion that connects the first attaching surface and the second attaching surface to each other. The display panel is attached to the plate-shaped body and is configured to display information on a display surface. The display surface is disposed from the first attaching surface to the second attaching surface. The surface member is disposed on a display surface side of the display panel to cover the display panel such that only the information displayed on the display surface of the display panel is visible through the surface member when the display panel is turned on.

A vehicle body of a vehicle may include a floor portion which is provided for a driving unit of the vehicle to be mounted therein, and a seat frame member mounted with a seat of the vehicle while being selectively coupled to a plurality of points on the floor portion, to form the vehicle body, for achieving seat mounting and vehicle body configuration.

A seat assembly of a vehicle may include a support having a lower end portion connected to a floor of the vehicle; a seat frame having a connection portion provided above the support and having an entire slope which is changed by a curvature of the connection portion when the connection portion is slid, the connection portion being formed in a curved line or a curved surface; and a seat mounted on the seat frame and configured for implementing reclining by having a slope which is changed together with the seat frame when the seat frame is slid on the support.

A vehicle and a method of controlling the vehicle are provided. The vehicle may include: a speaker configured to output a sound into the vehicle; a detector configured to measure internal environment information representing an environment inside the vehicle and a noise factor determining a noise generated in the vehicle; and a controller configured to determine a tuning value based on a type of sound, to adjust the tuning value to correspond to at least one of the internal environment information or the noise factor, to adjust the sound by adjusting at least one of a size or a phase based on the adjusted tuning value, and to control the speaker to output the adjusted sound.

A sound generating apparatus for vehicles may include a sound generating device to be covered by a vehicle interior material of a vehicle. The sound generating device may be configured to vibrate the vehicle interior material. A vehicle including the sound generating apparatus for vehicles may include a vehicle interior material, covering a vehicle structure, and at least one sound generating apparatus disposed at the vehicle interior material. The vehicle interior material may vibrate according to a vibration of the sound generating apparatus to output a sound.

A vehicle occupant detection system includes a housing. A microprocessor is mounted in the housing and is programmed to detect an engine engagement status of a vehicle. A camera is mounted on the housing and is directed forward of the housing. The camera electrically coupled to the microprocessor is programmed with facial recognition software to compare facial images against images captured by the camera. A motion sensor mounted on the housing detects motion forward of the housing. The camera captures an image when the motion sensor detects motion. A first condition is defined when the motion sensor detects motion, the camera captures an image prompting a facial recognition match and the microprocessor detects the vehicle is parked. A sound emitter is mounted on the housing and is electrically coupled to the microprocessor and emit a low decibel sound when the first condition is first attained.

Systems and methods for pairing a personal electronic device of a passenger with a passenger seat in a vehicle using a PWM light identification, and for allowing the personal electronic device to control passenger in-seat functions and features. The system comprises an on-board video system having an in-seat display system for installation in a vehicle. The on-board video system is configured to communication a PWM light identification from a monitor of the in-seat display system which is captured by an imaging device of the personal electronic device. The on-board video system receives pairing information from the personal electronic device corresponding to the captured light identification via a wireless communication link. The on-board video system then validates the pairing information and pairs the personal electronic device to the passenger seat and authorizes the personal electronic device to control passenger seat functions associated with the passenger seat.

A passenger seat for commercial vehicles and rail systems, having at least: a massage pad for increasing the ergonomics in the waist section of the passenger and applying massage; a compressor for inflating the massage pad; cooling pads for cooling the passenger; a heating pad for heating the upper portion of the seat and the backrest contacting the passenger; a presence sensor for determining whether there is a passenger on the passenger seat; a belt sensor for determining whether the passenger fastens the safety belt; a wireless charging unit for the passenger to charge a mobile device without using a connection cable; a manual control panel for the heating pad, cooling pad and the massage pad; a wireless connection module for the heating pad, cooling pad and the massage pad; and a control unit where the data collected from the presence sensor and belt sensor are transmitted.

A seat tray for a vehicle is disclosed herein. The tray holds items and prevents items from falling off the seat. The tray may include a bottom and sidewalls creating a holding area. In one version, the tray be adjustable in length and/or width. The tray may be secured to the seat with an extended tail-end at the bottom configured to slide under the seat between the cushions. In some variations, the tail-end may include a wrinkle-like ridge to prevent items from sliding under the seat. The tray may be used to hold various items needed by a driver who often drives over long distances.

A ski rack configured for an interior of a vehicle is described. Embodiments of the ski rack include a main body and at least one strap. The ski rack can be adapted to secure to a backside of a rear seat in a vehicle and receive one or more pairs of skis thereon. The main body of the ski rack can include a front section sloping up to a second flat section. The at least one strap can be located in the second section and can be implemented to secure the pairs of skis to the ski rack.
