This system for detecting the surrounding conditions of a moving body forcibly changes the state of at least one of a plurality of lighting devices (change from an unlit state to a lighting state or a blinking state, change in the emission color, or change in the luminance) installed inside the moving body, if an object to which attention must be paid during traveling of the moving body is detected in the surroundings of the moving body.

An organic light-emitting diode comprising an organic layer sequence, a radiation exit area and an encapsulation. The organic layer sequence comprises at least one radiation-emitting region which generates electromagnetic radiation in the spectral range from infrared radiation to UV radiation during operation. The radiation exit area is structured, so that the electromagnetic radiation has a directional emission profile. The encapsulation forms a seal of the organic layer sequence against environmental influences.

Provided are an apparatus and a method for analyzing a state of a vehicle occupant and performing illumination and image output control by a projector in units of a screen sectioned area of a vehicle ceiling, in accordance with an analysis result. There is provided a data processing unit configured to execute state analysis of an occupant of a vehicle and execute output control of a projector in accordance with an occupant analysis result. The data processing unit performs projector control of outputting illumination light having luminance determined in accordance with the occupant analysis result, in units of a sectioned area of a screen of a vehicle ceiling on which projector output light is outputted. The data processing unit analyzes a state of an occupant on the basis of a camera-captured image, and outputs illumination light having luminance determined in accordance with an occupant state, in units of a screen sectioned area above each occupant.

The present technology relates to a vehicle that enables to improve designability while avoiding deterioration of safety and functionality of the vehicle.

The vehicle includes: a front line extending in a vehicle width direction on a front surface of a body; and a headlight arranged on left and right of the front surface, divided vertically by the front line, and configured to output a low beam from a portion above the front line and output a high beam from a portion below the front line. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a vehicle.

A vehicle in-cabin lighting system includes: an outward gaze guiding section that is provided inside a vehicle cabin at a vehicle front side and at a vehicle width direction outer side of a vehicle seat, and that becomes brighter than its surroundings on activation of an outer side lighting device; and a control section that is configured to determine whether or not an occupant sifting on the vehicle seat has an interest in interacting with another occupant inside the vehicle cabin based on detection of operation of an operation section by the occupant or based on detection of a state of the occupant, and to activate the outer side lighting device so as to make the outward gaze guiding section brighter in a case in which determination is made that there is no interest in interacting.

A vehicle interior component configured to provide a user interface for vehicle systems is disclosed. The component may provide a user interface for a vehicle occupant. The component may comprise a composite structure to provide the user interface comprising a cover providing an exterior surface, a sensor, light panel, absorber panel and/or decorative material. The light panel may provide output visible at the exterior surface; the decorative layer and/or absorber panel may provide a visual effect. The cover may comprise a light-transmissive cover; illumination from a display may comprise visible light transmitted through a functional layer and through an at least partially translucent cover. The component may comprise a light panel to provide output visible at the cover exterior surface. A method of operating the user interface provided by the composite structure is also disclosed. The user interface may be coupled to a control system.
