A system for monitoring an interior of a vehicle, comprising an identification device adapted to be carried by an individual, a vehicular unit adapted for mounting within the vehicle, and a controller adapted for remote wireless communication with the unit. The unit will activate a camera and a microphone when a person is detected within the vehicle. The unit will search for the identification device and, if the identification device is not detected, the unit will activate an alarm. If the identification device is detected, the unit will compare an access code from the identification device with authorized access codes. If the access code is not found within the authorized access codes, the unit will activate an alarm. The controller is operable to display images, broadcast sounds, and display the alarm status from the unit to a user in possession of the controller.

A method of managing an electronic control unit of an automobile through an integrated fingerprint recognition system is implemented between a vehicle and at least one driver. The driver is considered as a user profile within the system and can include a primary designation or a secondary designation. The primary designation is allowed to fully control a plurality of vehicular controllers through the system while the secondary designation is allowed to partially control the vehicular controllers. The vehicular controllers include an entry system, an ignition system, a speed control system, a GPS, and a security system as each of the vehicular controllers is activated or implemented by a fingerprint image of the driver that is stored within an onboard computer of the vehicle. The onboard computer also communicably connected with a mobile device of the driver to complete the system between the driver and the vehicle.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to vehicle technologies, and disclose a method and system for controlling a vehicle, and a fingerprint chip. The method comprises: collecting a fingerprint image of a user; authenticating the user according to the fingerprint image and acquiring identity information of the user after the authentication succeeds; acquiring a vehicle personalization parameter of the user according to the identity information of the user and setting up the vehicle according to the vehicle personalization parameter. The embodiments further provide a vehicle control system and a fingerprint chip. The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can allow simple and quick personalized settings of a vehicle based on identity recognition, which can facilitate sharing a vehicle among family members in most cases.

Provided herein is an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle fleet comprising a plurality of autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicles coordinated by a fleet management module. Each vehicle may be configured to receive a modular unit, wherein the modular unit is configured to secure a consumer product.

A system for keyless entry applications using beamforming transmission in a millimeter wave spectrum in an environment. A memory with data including values indicative of link attributes associated with beam signal measurements with states of devices and states of environments. The states of the devices for each device including types of user behavior, locations and poses in each environment. Control circuitry performs beam training with a target device associated with at least one keyless entry application in the environment to measure beam signal values and environmental responses for different beams transmitted over the different beam angles. Selects, in response to the beam training, at least one dominant angle for a beamforming communication with the target device. Estimates, a state of the target device associated with the at least one keyless entry application or a state of the environment, corresponding to environmental responses for different beams estimated during the beam training.

System, apparatus, device and methods relating to a telematic vehicle sharing platform ecosystem and a telematic vehicle share I/O expander to automate sharing and management of a vehicle that is shared by more than one operator.

An identification system configured so as to identify a driver of a vehicle after the vehicle has been started, the identification system includes a state detection module configured so as to generate a first dataset containing information relating to at least one movement of a device of the vehicle; an identification module carried or worn by a carrier or wearer and configured so as to generate a second dataset including movement data of the carrier or wearer; and a computing module configured so as to correlate the first dataset with the second dataset so as to determine whether the carrier or wearer and the driver are the same person.

Systems and methods for autonomous delivery management are disclosed. In various embodiments, the system includes one or more processors and a memory storing instructions which, when executed by the processor(s), cause the autonomous delivery management system to provide a user interface for a customer to enter subscription information, receive subscription information from the user interface where the subscription information includes an item and a time interval for regularly delivering the item to the customer, store the subscription information, determine a handling itinerary for the item that includes delivery of the item in compliance with the time interval, and communicate instructions to an autonomous vehicle based on the handling itinerary.

A switch device includes an operation button including an operation surface on which a push operation is performed, a guide recess portion that has an elongated shape surrounded by inclined surfaces and is provided on the operation surface to guide an operating finger, and a biometric information sensor including a reading surface for reading biometric information of the operating finger in contact therewith. The reading surface is exposed situated nearer an end surface of the guide recess portion in relation to a longitudinal center of the guide recess portion.
