There is disclosed system to warn a driver about driving laws and/or conditions. Optionally, the system includes a database of traffic laws, for example indexed according to location and/or time and/or conditions. For example, the device may display a speed limit reflecting local conditions such as weather, construction, school hours. In some embodiments, warnings may be customized to a particular vehicle and/or driver. In some embodiments, the system may warn a third party about driving behavior and/or legal infringements.

Techniques and implementations pertaining to information sharing and user experience enhancement by networked vehicles are described. A method may involve receiving contextual data regarding each of one or more user contexts associated with a first vehicle of a community of vehicles from the first vehicle. The method may also involve determining that a second vehicle of the community of vehicles is in a first user context which matches one of the one or more user contexts associated with the first vehicle. The method may further involve transmitting information regarding the first user context to the second vehicle. A vehicle may determine that the vehicle will be in a user context similar or identical to at least one of one or more previous user contexts, and execute one or more actions pertaining to the user context.

A car and a neighboring vehicle lane departure warning system and method are provided. The system includes a cloud server and a plurality of cars connected to the cloud server. Each car includes a vehicle body and a neighboring vehicle lane departure warning apparatus disposed on the vehicle body. The cloud server outputs a reminder signal to the cars within a specific distance of the neighboring vehicle after receiving a neighboring vehicle lane departure message, so that the drivers can be informed in time that the neighboring vehicle moves out of its lane, and can keep a proper distance from the neighboring vehicle in advance to prevent accidents.

A vehicle heads-up display (HUD) includes a smart phone or tablet computer with at least one processor running at least one computer program adapted to enable the HUD to: (i) establish a connection to an on board unit (OBU) of the vehicle using the mechanisms provided by ICMPv6 for IPv6 router discovery, and acquire an IPv6 address through the mechanism of Stateless address auto configuration (SLAAC); (ii) process an authentication challenge from a Roadway Authorization Server (RAS); and (iii) respond to an authentication challenge from said Roadway Authorization Server (RAS).

An apparatus for providing a user interface for platooning in a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes a touch screen display, a communication circuit that communicates with the outside, and a control circuit electrically connected with the touch screen display and the communication circuit. The control circuit displays a first object corresponding to the vehicle and a second object corresponding to an outside vehicle included in a platooning group on the touch screen display and receives a touch input associated with the first object and the second object using the touch screen display. The vehicle is thus operated to adjust a distance between the vehicle and the outside vehicle in response to the touch input.

A display control device includes a display that is configured to display information and a display controller that is configured to cause the display to display a plurality of partition lines for partitioning a host lane in which a vehicle is present and an adjacent lane adjacent to the host lane, and the display controller is configured to cause the display to display a partition line of the adjacent lane in a case where the adjacent lane is a lane in which a lane change from the host lane is possible, and restrict causing the display to display the partition line of the adjacent lane in a case where the adjacent lane is not a lane in which a lane change from the host lane is possible.

A driver nudge system is operated within a vehicle to indicate a warning to a driver of the vehicle. The system includes a steering wheel, a vehicle sensor monitoring an operating environment of the vehicle, and an electric motor connected to the steering wheel configured to nudge the steering wheel in an opposite direction to a threat diagnosed according to data from the vehicle sensor.

In one aspect, a device includes at least one processor, a display accessible to the at least one processor, and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage includes instructions executable by the at least one processor to receive input regarding an object at which one person is looking and to present, to another person via the display, a graphical indication regarding the object.

The present invention enables recognition of traffic light lamp color in place of or in addition to simply displaying the traffic light lamp color in a color image. A projection unit projects, towards a part subject to projection, display light L that can display an image at a variable display distance. A lamp color information acquisition unit acquires a lamp color of a traffic light which a vehicle will be driving through. A display distance adjustment unit changes the display distance of the image based on the lamp color acquired by an information acquisition unit.

The disclosure relates to a method for displaying safety-relevant information on a display device of a vehicle. A speed of the vehicle, environment data representing an environment of the vehicle, a driver reaction time, and an emergency braking reaction time for an emergency braking driver assistance function are input, and used to superimpose an emergency braking marker and a driver intervention marker on the map representing a lane in which the vehicle is travelling in the display device. The emergency braking marker represents a future point in time and/or future location for an intervention of the emergency braking driver assistance function, and the driver intervention marker represents a future point in time and/or a future location for the latest possible intervention of the driver prior to the intervention of the emergency braking driver assistance function.
