A communications cable is provided that includes a pair of twisted pair of wires, each coated with a fluoropolymer insulator. The twisted pair of wires is configured to carry a differential signal, such as a differential data signal and/or a differential power signal. The fluoropolymers are highly effective insulators and significantly reduce both the effects of internal and external electromagnetic interference while maintaining low cable attenuation (Insertion Loss), even when operating within a temperature range of −40° C. to 150° C.

An OTA update control device and method for vehicles may include a battery that supplies power to an electric load of the vehicle, a sensor configured for measuring a voltage of the battery, and a controller configured for determining whether to update each ECU based on the voltage of the battery measured whenever each of ECUs provided in the vehicle is updated when the ECUs are updated.

This invention provides a system for intuitive human-machine interface. The system includes a visual device, an audio device, a haptic device, and a system of chip. The system of chip receives a data transmitted from one of the following groups including at least one electronic control unit, an advanced driver assistance system, a center informative display, and at least one communication system. It determines a first feedback level to which the data matches and drives the visual device, the audio device, and the haptic device to perform difference feedback operations according to the first feedback level, to provide an intuitive cognition message to a driver.

A vehicle communication system includes a switching hub incorporated in a vehicle and including a switch IC and an external CPU. The switch IC includes an internal CPU and performs a transfer process of transferring information to a communication device. The external CPU is provided outside the switch IC and connected to the switch IC, and has higher information processing capability than the internal CPU. The external CPU can perform a transfer order process of ordering to transfer information to the communication device and perform a security process of securing the security of the information to be transferred when the transfer order process is performed. The internal CPU monitors the operation of the external CPU and when the external CPU is abnormal, performs the transfer order process instead of the external CPU.

A system comprises a first control module that meets specified operational criteria for controlling a component of a vehicle and a second control module that meets specified operational criteria for actuating the component. The first control module is arranged to send a first signal to open a relay that, when closed, electrically couples a power output of the second control module to ground via a fuse, send a second signal to cause the second control module to power a motor for actuating the component, receive a third signal indicating a completion of actuation of the component, and responsive to receiving the third signal, send a fourth signal to close the relay.

A gateway connected to a bus, a bus, and the like used by a plurality of electronic control units for communication includes a frame communication unit that receives a frame, a transfer control unit that removes verification information used to verify a frame from the content of the frame received by the frame communication unit and transfers the frame to a destination bus or that adds verification information to the content of the frame and transfers the frame to the destination bus, and the like.

A vehicle is electrically connected to one or more accessories. The vehicle includes at least one controller that may be configured to identify the accessory based on accessory identification information. The controller may also be configured to provide one or more commands to control an operation of the accessory.

Provided is a method for detecting a driver's abnormalities based on a CAN (Controller Area Network) bus network communicating with an ECU (Electronic Control Unit) of a vehicle. The method may include: acquiring a CAN bus signal related to an operation of the vehicle from the CAN bus network; extracting a detection vector from the CAN bus signal using an auto encoder; and detecting a driver's abnormality based on the detection vector.

A device for controlling an automated driving operation of a vehicle may have at least two brake systems, at least two steering systems, an engine controller, a first automated drive controller, a second automated drive controller, a surroundings sensor assembly, and inertial sensors. A third automated drive controller at least controls the vehicle into a standstill. The device is configured such that the automated driving operation is initiated and/or maintained only when the brake systems, steering systems, and at least two of the automated drive controllers are functional and such that the automated driving operation is interrupted if only one of the automated drive controllers is functional and/or if one of the brake systems and/or steering systems is not functional and/or if the engine controller is not functional, in which case the still functional automated drive controller assumes control of the vehicle and guides the vehicle into a standstill.

An electronic control module, particularly for a transmission, includes a first circuit board element and a sensor unit carrier fastened to the first circuit board element. The sensor unit carrier has a sensor unit receptacle configured to receive a sensor unit. The sensor unit has a sensor element fastened and electrically connected to a second circuit board element so as to detect at least one measured value. The sensor unit is fastened in the sensor unit receptacle. The second circuit board element has a flexible region that separates a first sub-region of the second circuit board element from a second sub-region of the second circuit board element. The first sub-region has a predetermined angle to the second sub-region. The sensor element is electrically connected to the first circuit board element by the second sub-region of the second circuit board element.
