VEHICLE CONTROL APPARATUS
A vehicle control apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a first signal processing device; a second signal processing device; and a control device including a controller configured to control a plurality of actuators, wherein the second processor is configured to: execute a first service to control the controller to output a turn-on signal or a turn-off signal to at least one of the plurality of actuators; in response to a second service being executed after storing data associated with execution of the second service, which is added or updated in addition to the first service, control the controller to output the turn-on signal or the turn-off signal, or an operation control signal to the actuator; and not transmit the data associated with the execution of the second service to the control device. Accordingly, a new service or an updated service can be efficiently executed.
Rotatable operator station of a work machine
The present disclosure is directed to apparatuses, system, and methods for rotating an operator station relative to another portion of an agricultural machine, such as a frame of the agricultural machine, to facilitate transport of the agricultural machine from one location to another. Transportation of the agricultural machine in this may include moving the agricultural machine in a direction that is conventionally considered to be the reverse direction of the agricultural machine. The operator station may include a cab of the agricultural machine or a portion of the cab, and the operator station may include one or more displays for displaying one or more images captured by an image capture device that is directed rearwardly of the agricultural machine.
SEAT SYSTEM
A seat system capable of improving the comfort and convenience of a seated occupant by controlling a conveyance seat according to the state of the seated occupant is provided. A seat system includes a conveyance seat and a wearable device which detects biometric information of the seated occupant. The conveyance seat (S) includes a seat body which has a seat back, a seat cushion, and a headrest, a seat drive unit which changes the posture of the seat back and the seat cushion, a functional member that is provided in the seat body, and a control unit which controls the seat drive unit and the functional member. The control unit includes an acquisition unit which acquires biometric information acquired from the wearable device and controls the seat drive unit and the functional member based on the biometric information acquired by the acquisition unit.
Motion sickness mitigation
Systems, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to detecting whether a user in a vehicle is experiencing motion sickness. In one embodiment, a method includes determining whether a user in a vehicle is experiencing motion sickness based on a first movement measurement of the vehicle and a second movement measurement of a head of the user using a radar sensor and in response to determining whether the user is experiencing motion sickness, activating mitigation control.
Occupant knee support device
An occupant knee support device provided in a vehicle includes a knee outer side surface support member and a knee lower surface support member. The knee outer side surface support member is disposed in a side part of the seat surface part in a stored state, protrudes forward and upward beyond the seat surface part in a support state to support an outer side surface of a knee of the occupant. The knee lower surface support member is, in the stored state, provided in a vicinity of a front end part of the seat surface part and separated from a lower surface of the knee of the occupant. The knee lower surface support member is configured to support the lower surface of the knee of the occupant in the supported state.
Monitoring system for a vehicle cabin
A monitoring system for a vehicle cabin, a vehicle including such a monitoring system and a method for monitoring a vehicle cabin. The monitoring system includes a first sensor unit, a second sensor unit and a control unit. The first sensor unit is configured to generate image data of the vehicle cabin. The second sensor unit is configured to generate non-image data of the vehicle cabin. The control unit is configured to collect the image data and the non-image data and determine based thereon whether an obstacle is in the vehicle cabin. The control unit is further configured to limit an actuation of a subsystem if the obstacle is disruptive for the actuation of the subsystem.
