A method for securely displaying ASIL-relevant data on a display device of a motor vehicle, where the device includes a transmitter unit, a receiver unit, and a display unit to show the images generated by the receiver unit. Images having higher safety ratings are shown on the display unit with less modification by an image enhancement process in comparison with images having lower safety ratings. Information about the safety rating of an image to be displayed is introduced by the transmitter unit into a data stream by a classifying binary code in color bit information of at least one pixel of the image to be displayed via a pixel matrix, in order to control a change of the image during the image enhancement process in an image enhancer associated with an image-data-outputting receiver unit for images of all safety ratings.

In a vehicle electronic control system, a center device includes an update data storage unit that stores update data for rewrite targets. Program rewriting to rewrite target electronic control units is one campaign. The center device includes a display control information storage unit that stores display control information necessary to display information related to the campaign on a vehicle side. The center device transmits the update data stored in the update data storage unit and the display control information stored in the display control information storage unit to a vehicle master device.

The invention relates to a device for an infotainment system. The infotainment system has a computing unit, on which a first operating system is installed and can be executed. The device has a computing unit, on which a second operating system is installed and can be executed. Radio-supported communication with the Internet can be carried out using the second operating system. The device has at least one generic interface to the infotainment system, whereby applications designed for the second operating system can be provided using the infotainment system.

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle display apparatus. The vehicle display apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure comprises: a first display and a second display mounted in a vehicle; a signal processing device configured to perform signal processing for at least one of the first display or the second display; and a second signal processing device configured to perform signal processing, wherein the signal processing device is configured to determine whether the second signal processing device is a master device or a slave device, based on number information of processors in the second signal processing device and information on support of non-uniform memory access. Accordingly, data exchange between the plurality of signal processing devices may be performed efficiently.

Alternative display options for vehicle telltales are disclosed. In one aspect, a fault condition in a telltale is detected, and the telltale is presented through a secondary display system in the vehicle, potentially bypassing any local control unit for the secondary display system. For example, a video telltale may be presented on an infotainment display after detection of a fault in the original telltale. By presenting the telltale in an alternate display, the operator remains informed of sensor conditions in the automobile and may take remedial action to fix the fault as well as any conditions which trigger a telltale.

A method of providing forward traffic light information during a stop includes capturing a front image in a vehicle, detecting traffic light information from the front image, and outputting a notification corresponding to the traffic light information to a mobile terminal or the vehicle depending on at least one of a communication state with the mobile terminal and a monitor state of the mobile terminal. A system for providing forward traffic light information during a stop includes a mobile terminal, and a vehicle that captures a front image and to detect traffic light information from the front image, where a notification corresponding to the traffic light information is output to the mobile terminal or the vehicle depending on at least one of a communication state with the mobile terminal and a monitor state of the mobile terminal.

A control system for a vehicle includes a touch screen, a Controller Area Network (CAN) microcontroller, and an embedded computer assembly (ECA). The touch screen is configured to receive a user input. The touch screen is physically mounted directly on either side of a steering wheel of the vehicle. The CAN microcontroller is configured to communicate with a CAN bus of the vehicle. The ECA includes processing circuitry configured to obtain a user input from the touch screen and provide a control signal to the CAN microcontroller and the CAN bus of the vehicle to perform a requested vehicle function according to the user input. The touch screen and the ECA are retrofit on the vehicle and the ECA is configured to intersect, suppress, modify, or reproduce communications on the CAN bus of the vehicle.

A method and apparatus for automatically arranging seats of an autonomous vehicle enable seats to be remotely changed between a standard arrangement mode and a final target arrangement mode. The apparatus includes a manipulation device configured to generate a signal corresponding to a target arrangement mode of seats through manipulation by a passenger, seat motors respectively provided in the seats so as to control positions and postures of the seats, seat controllers for controlling operation of the seat motors, and a vehicle controller configured to transmit a signal from the manipulation device to the seat controllers, transmit an abnormal signal indicating jamming of the seats to the manipulation device or control the seat controllers provided in the vehicle. As a result, it is possible to easily change the seats to a desired arrangement mode in an autonomous vehicle without interference with peripheral components during movement of the seats.
