VEHICLE INTERIOR STRUCTURE
Provided is a vehicle interior structure including a windshield, an interior member, and a camera, in which an image of the reflection of the interior member on the windshield is hardly taken with the camera. The vehicle interior structure of the present invention includes; a windshield; an interior member arranged below the windshield; and a camera arranged behind the windshield. A polarizing plate is arranged between the windshield and the camera, and the polarizing plate is arranged so as to transmit a larger quantity of P-polarized light than that of S-polarized light.
VEHICLE GLASS PANEL WITH INSERT AND ASSOCIATED THERMAL CAMERA DEVICE
A vehicle glazing includes, in a peripheral zone, a traversing hole including an insert made of a material having a crystalline structure which is transparent in a range A of wavelengths in the infrared spectrum of at least from 9.5 μm to 10.5μm and the material of the insert is transparent in the visible region at a reference wavelength of between 500 nm and 600 nm.
VIBRATION APPARATUS, APPARATUS INCLUDING THE SAME, AND VEHICULAR APPARATUS INCLUDING THE VIBRATION APPARATUS
A vibration apparatus, an apparatus including the same, and a vehicular apparatus including the new vibration apparatus are provided having a simplified structure. The vibration apparatus includes a vibration portion, a first electrode portion at a first surface of the vibration portion and configured with a conductive adhesive member, and a second electrode portion at a second surface different from the first surface of the vibration portion.
ATTACHMENT DEVICE
An attachment device that suppresses a decrease in the detection accuracy of a sensor. This attachment device is designed to attach a sensor to one surface side of a transmission plate such that the sensor can detect a transmitted wave transmitted from the other surface side.
Holder for fixing a sensor, in particular radar sensor, to a vehicle, and system comprising a holder and the sensor
A holder (2) for fixing a sensor (1) to a motor vehicle includes a frame (7) and walls that bound an opening (8) for receiving and fixing the sensor. At at least two opposing walls (10, 11) each respectively have at least one clamping portion (14) for clamping the sensor (1) in place in the opening. At least two further opposing walls (12, 13) each respectively have at least one receiving portion (19, 20) for receiving a portion (6) of the sensor (1), wherein at least one of the receiving portions (19) has a spring portion (18) for pretensioning the sensor (1) toward the opposing wall (12).
Bracket and onboard device attachment structure
A resin bracket for fixing an onboard device to a window glass employed in a vehicle. The bracket includes plural bracket pieces, each configured to be adhered to the window glass, a coupling portion configured to couple together adjacent bracket pieces of the bracket pieces so as to allow relative movement therebetween, and an engaging portion provided at each of the bracket pieces so as to enable plural engagement portions provided at the onboard device to engage with the respective engaging portions.
Air purging system
A vehicle air purging system includes a vehicle body that defines an interior. A support member is coupled to the vehicle body. The support member defines a receiving cavity. The support member defines an aperture proximate the receiving cavity. A one-way valve is coupled to the support member and is disposed within the aperture. A fan is coupled to the support member. The fan includes an outlet aligned with the aperture. A controller is operably coupled to the fan. The controller is configured to activate the fan to blow air from the interior to an area external to the vehicle body through the one-way valve.
HEAD-UP DISPLAY AND MOVING BODY WITH HEAD-UP DISPLAY MOUNTED THEREON
A head-up display is configured to project an image on a transparent reflection member to cause an observer to visually recognize a virtual image, and includes a display device configured to display the image, and a projection optical system configured to project the image displayed by the display device as the virtual image for the observer. The projection optical system is configured to form an image as an intermediate image, and includes a first lens configured to condense light, and a first optical element configured to diffuse light. The first lens and the first optical element are disposed in this order along an optical path from the display device. The first lens is inclined with respect to a reference beam which is defined as a beam reaching a center of a viewpoint region of the observer and corresponding to a center of the virtual image.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS TO REDUCE FALSE CALLS IN SELF DRIVING VEHICLES
Disclosure related to a system for detecting and reducing false calls from nearby objects in self-driving vehicles. Further, the system comprising at least one camera device having at least two lenses attached on an outside of a self-driving vehicle. The camera device configured to capture images of nearby objects, one or more sensors selected from the group consisting of a LIDAR, a SONAR, a gyroscope and an accelerometer coupled to the at least one camera device. A communication unit for communicating image data along with sensor data to a processing unit. The processing unit receives data from the camera device and the one or more sensors, and detect a true presence of an object and a true direction of the object. One lens of the camera device confirms an image captured by the other lens of the camera device through a deep learning based image data filtering technique.
CAMERA HOLDING STRUCTURE
A camera holding structure for holding a vehicle-mounted camera includes: a window separating a vehicle interior space from a vehicle exterior space; and a holding member fixed to an inner surface of the window and holding the vehicle-mounted camera. The holding member includes a fixing frame that is fixed to the inner surface of the window and a hood that protrudes from the fixing frame toward an inside of a vehicle and defines a field-of-view space of the vehicle-mounted camera on a vehicle inner side of the window. The fixing frame has an opposing surface that opposes the inner surface of the window and is attached to the inner surface of the window, the opposing surface being provided with at least one marking part that is visible from outside the vehicle.
