A pop-up apparatus for a camera mirror system disposed inside a panel of a body of a vehicle includes a camera mirror assembly to provide a rear view of a vehicle, a camera mirror housing disposed to enclose the camera mirror system and configured to move to an outside of the panel, and a camera mirror frame configured to receive a driving force from a driving unit. The driving unit opens a cover of the panel while driving the camera mirror assembly to move to the outside of the panel through an opened portion of the panel in linkage with the camera mirror frame.

A recessed portion positioned on a vehicle rear side with respect to a lens of a camera and recessed in an inner side direction from an outer surface of a mirror housing is provided on the mirror housing. A flow rectifying surface, which forms a flow of traveling wind toward the recessed portion, is provided on the mirror housing.

A vehicular camera assembly includes a camera housing and first and second PCBs disposed in the camera housing. Circuitry of the first PCB is in board-to-board electrically-conductive connection with circuitry of the second PCB. The circuitry of the first PCB includes an imager and the second PCB includes a circuit board connector. An electrical connector is disposed at a second portion of the camera housing. A first end of the electrical connector electrically-conductively connects with the circuit board connector when the second portion of the camera housing is being joined with a first portion of the camera housing. Individual pin-receiving sockets of the circuit board connector are configured to accommodate tolerances when respective individual pins of the first end of the electrical connector are being inserted into the respective individual pin-receiving sockets when the second portion is being joined with the first portion of the camera housing.

A glove box apparatus may include: a fixed part fixed to a vehicle body, and having a guide rail installed at a side surface thereof; a housing having a protrusion part moved along the guide rail, and configured to open/close the fixed part; a sensor part configured to sense a contact with the protrusion part; and a driving part configured to move the housing to open/close the fixed part, and move the housing toward the fixed part when the contact between the sensor part and the protrusion part is released.

An onboard camera unit includes: a hood base holding an onboard camera; a hood plate covering the hood base from above; and a heater provided between the hood base and the hood plate. The hood base and the hood plate form a hood structure that allows a line of sight of the on-board camera to passes through an area between a front windshield and the hood structure. A space is provided between the hood base and the hood plate. The heater is fixed to a lower surface of the hood plate, and a clearance is provided between the heater and the hood base.

A camera module comprises: an AF driving part, a shake-correcting driving part, a first position detection part, a second position detection part, and a drive control part configured to perform driving control of the AF driving part based on detection results of the first position detection part and the second position detection part. The drive control part includes a correction part configured to correct the position of the AF movable part in the optical axis direction that is calculated based on the detection result of the first position detection part in accordance with preliminarily set correction data. The correction part corrects the detection result of the first position detection part in consideration of displacement of the AF movable part in the optical axis direction due to sway of the shake correction movable part.

A projector system including an awning bar having an awning bar body having a length extending between a first end and a second end. The projector system includes a projector having a projection lens. The projector is attachable to the awning bar along the length. The awning bar is configured to attach to a portion of an awning canopy such that the projection lens is located below the awning canopy when the awning canopy is in an open position.

A housing apparatus configured to be attached to an external housing of a vehicle mounted optical device is described. The housing apparatus is configured to direct an airflow at a lens of the optical device in order to prevent or remove obstructions, such as rain, dirt, pollen, insects, and other items. In one embodiment, among others, an apparatus comprises a tunnel structure that has a first end, a second end, a first side, a second side, and a top side. The first end of the tunnel structure has an entry opening for capturing air flow while the vehicle is in motion. The second end of the tunnel structure has an exit opening for directing the air flow to a lens of the optical device.

A liftgate with rearward facing camera is provided. The rearward facing camera is positioned on the liftgate such as to comply with manufacturer recommended placement guidelines. The liftgate is moveable between stowed and deployed configurations, and the rearward facing camera is protected from damage when the liftgate is in the deployed configuration. The camera assemble includes at least one protective element. Accommodation is made for the routing and protection of wiring associated with the camera.

A left front camera (11) is adapted to be mounted on a left front lamp (1LF) of a vehicle to obtain external information of at least ahead of the vehicle. A right front LiDAR sensor (12), a type of which is different from the camera (11), is adapted to be mounted on a right front lamp (1RF) of the vehicle to obtain external information of at least ahead of the vehicle.
