Construction machine with lighting arrangement
A construction machine in the form of a road paver or feeder vehicle includes a chassis and a hopper, wherein at least one lighting arrangement is mounted on the chassis. The lighting arrangement comprises at least one light source, and the lighting arrangement is configured to illuminate an area in front of the construction machine in the direction of travel. The construction machine further has an object detection system for detecting an object located in front of the construction machine in the direction of travel, and the illumination emitted by the lighting arrangement can be changed as a function of the detection of an object by means of the object detection system.
Showing a target vehicle opening fore zone of an automated vehicle
A method is provided for showing a target vehicle opening fore zone for a potential, future vehicle user (220) of an automated vehicle (200) by a control device, wherein the potential, future vehicle user of the automated vehicle is detected outside of the automated vehicle, and the automated vehicle marks the target vehicle opening fore zone for the potential, future vehicle user during the travel to the potential, future vehicle user before a stopping position (250) is reached.
LIGHTING APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
A control method of a lighting apparatus for a vehicle may include: sensing, by a sensing unit, a distance between the vehicle and a pedestrian; determining, by a control unit, whether the distance between the vehicle and the pedestrian falls within a first distance; determining, by the control unit, a walking direction of the pedestrian when the distance between the vehicle and the pedestrian falls within the first distance; and indicating, by the control unit, the walking direction to the pedestrian by operating a plurality of flap units.
System and method for controlling an interior environmental condition in a vehicle
A system and method are described for controlling a vehicle interior environmental condition. A biometric sensor senses a biometric condition of a vehicle seat occupant and generates a sensed biometric condition value. A controller receives the sensed biometric condition value, a sensed interior environmental condition value, and a sensed exterior environmental condition value. Each of multiple exterior environmental condition values has an associated biometric condition value defined as optimal for the vehicle occupant. The controller determines the optimal biometric condition value associated with the sensed exterior environmental condition value, compares the optimal biometric condition value to the sensed biometric condition value, and in response to a difference between the optimal biometric condition value and the sensed biometric condition value, generates a control signal to control an actuator to control the controllable interior environmental condition to reduce the difference between sensed biometric condition value and the optimal biometric condition value.
Vehicular driver assistance system with construction zone recognition
A vehicular driver assistance system includes a camera that views through the windshield of the vehicle and a control device having an image processor that processes captured image data. Responsive to processing of captured image data by the image processor, the system adjusts a light beam emitted by a headlamp of the vehicle. The control device, responsive at least in part to image data processing by the image processor, determines when the vehicle is at a construction zone. Responsive to determination that the vehicle is at a construction zone, image processing of image data captured by the camera is adjusted to discriminate construction zone signs from taillights of leading vehicles. Responsive to determination of the vehicle exiting the construction zone, the control device adjusts the light beam emitted by the headlamp of the vehicle responsive to determination of headlamps of approaching vehicles and taillights of leading vehicles.

Motor vehicle having at least one headlight with separately actuated light segments
A motor vehicle having at least one headlight for illuminating the surroundings of the motor vehicle and a control device for controlling the headlight, wherein the headlight comprises a plurality of lighting segments that are arranged in the manner of a matrix and that can be actuated separately by the control device for providing a lighting brightness that can be predefined separately for the individual lighting segments, wherein the control parameter predefining the specific lighting brightness for each of the lighting segments can be calculated by the control device in at least one computing step as a function of input parameters that can be provided by at least one vehicle device, wherein the computing step or at least one of the computing steps may be executed in parallel by the control device for a plurality of the lighting segments.
Vehicle control system
The vehicle includes an operation switch for manually operating the operation state of the accessories. The vehicle control system includes a first controller that performs an evacuation traveling in response to a decrease in the driver's consciousness level, and a second controller that controls an operation state of the accessories based on a request from the first controller or operation information of the operation switch. The first controller is configured to transmit, to the second controller, a specific operation rejection request for performing a specific operation rejection process of rejecting the control of the accessories based on the specific operation of the operation switch in response to a decrease in the driver's consciousness level. The second controller is configured to perform the specific operation rejection process when the specific operation rejection request is received from the first controller.

VEHICLE CONTROL METHOD AND APPARATUS, VEHICLE-MOUNTED DEVICE, VEHICLE, AND MEDIUM
The invention relates to the field of vehicle technologies, and aims to solve a technical problem that when light control for avoidance of a vehicle is improper, traveling safety of the present vehicle, traveling safety of vehicles ahead for which light is controlled for avoidance, and/or safety, walking experience, etc. of the pedestrians for whom light is controlled for avoidance are/is affected to some degree. To solve the technical problem, embodiments of the invention provide a vehicle control method and apparatus, a control apparatus, a vehicle-mounted device, a vehicle, and a computer-readable storage medium. The control method includes: detecting target objects in front of a vehicle; determining whether the target objects are on a traveling path of the vehicle; and performing light control for avoidance for the target objects based on a determination result in a predetermined manner. With this setting, a strategy of light control for avoidance for a target object can be made by learning a traveling path of the target object, such that impact on traveling safety of the present vehicle, traveling safety of vehicles ahead for which light is controlled for avoidance, and/or safety, walking experience, etc. of the pedestrians for whom light is controlled for avoidance are/is kept as little as possible.
