A heads up display system includes a display medium in combination with a dock or support configured to receiving a portable electronic device. The display of the portable electronic device is projected by the display medium, such as in a forward direction. The vehicle dashboard or a surrounding area can have an integral dock, which can be at a top of a gauge visor, bottom of a gauge visor, is displace below vehicle gauges. In each case, an aperture may be provide to provide a path from the display of the electronic device to the display medium. In some embodiments, the heads up display system may include a dedicated display that mirrors the display of the portable electronic device, via a wired or wireless connection.

A mounting member for mounting a mobile device and a mobile device accessory of being fixed to one face of the mobile device and having a ring on an object, the mounting member includes a body, a slot portion being formed in a part of the body and having a receiving groove for receiving the ring and a pressing portion disposed inside the receiving groove and configured to elastically press the ring to be located in the receiving groove.

A mounting device for fastening a component, such as in particular a fixture, at a defined location has a base body having a holder or receptacle for the component and a suction device for retaining the component held in the holder at the defined location. In addition, the mounting device contains a pressing device to press the component held in the holder or receptacle to the defined location. A method for the validatable fixation of a component, such as in particular a fixture or bracket, at a defined location is also provided.

A removable vehicle exterior door guard device comprising an elongate panel and a plurality of vacuum seal suction cups. The panel can comprise a foam pad or other flexible polymer coupled to one or more suction cups configured to hold the panel to a vehicle surface. The device can comprise a foam pad having suction cups configured to provide a vacuum seal to a vehicle exterior door, for example using screw-tightening suction cup mechanism or a lever tightening suction cup mechanism. The vacuum seal suction cups are configured to maintain a strong seal against the vehicle surface over extended periods of time, even if the panel is bumped or the vehicle surface is not clean. The device can additionally include a theft deterrent system comprising a cord attached at a proximate end to the panel and at a distal end to an anchor that is secured inside the vehicle.

A mobile device case apparatus and method are provided that include a frame, a stand, at least one magnet, and rubber coating over the at least one magnet. The frame and stand can be 3D-printed. The frame is configured to secure a mobile device into the frame. The frame includes at least one magnet. The bottom of the stand can have a rubber coating to prevent the case from slipping when the case adheres to a metal. The stand is configured to support the weight of the apparatus and prop the mobile device up for viewing. The stand can also be configured to be a receive a mechanical element of a vehicle such as a wheelchair.

This disclosure pertains to a unique, versatile article for providing both storage and display of clothing, headwear, and other items within the internal area of an automated vehicle. Such an article is symmetrical in shape with a three-dimensional configuration having two opposing ends with curved edges and a bottom portion extending outward and below a top ovate portion with four corner regions having leg components that incline upward. Such an article allows for placement of headwear, clothing, and other types of items over the ovate top portion with the inclined legs of the bottom extended portion present for retention thereof. Clips may be attached for facilitating such retention as well, particularly on the bottom portion legs. Such an article may be placed anywhere on and attached to internal vehicle portions, including a dashboard, windows, seat backs, and the like, utilizing adhesives, suction cups, and other means.

Techniques for receiving and processing sensor data captured by a fleet of vehicle are discussed herein. In some examples, a fleet dashcam system can receive sensor data captured by electronic devices on a fleet of vehicles and can use that data to detect collision and near-collision events. The data of the collision or near-collision event can be used to determine a simulation scenario and a response of an autonomous vehicle control to the simulation scenario and/or it can be used to create a collision heat map to aid in operation of an autonomous vehicle.

A camera mount that can provide high stability, ease of operation, and flexible configurations for different applications and installation scenarios. The camera mount has an improved attachment mechanism that provides multiple locking positions and strengthened positioning pins. The camera mount has a plurality of anchoring devices capable of securing the camera mount on different curved surfaces.

The present invention relates to a window-attachment animal head device, primarily comprised of a body that resembles the head of an animal and that comprises at least one suction cup and at least one L-bracket that allows the device to removably-attach to a vehicle window. The body is also comprised of a set of ears, a set of eyes, a nose/snout, and a mouth with a tongue. Both the tongue and the ears may be of an exaggerated length and are non-rigid, such that they can be blown freely by the wind while the device is attached to a vehicle window and the vehicle is in motion. In this manner, the device allows a user to bring joy, humor and happiness to passing motorists which would ordinarily occur by bringing the pet in a vehicle, but without having to bring said pet into the vehicle.
