The invention relates to a light element of a vehicle with at least one light source configured to emit light rays, a reflective layer. With a pattern made wholly or partly in the reflective layer. The light element further including an optical element configured to project the light rays from the at least one light source towards the reflective layer. With a dark layer extending along the optical element on the side opposite the reflective layer.

A vehicle warning sign comprises: a reflective material for at least visible light; and at least one of (i) a heating element for detection by a thermal sensor or (ii) a corner reflector for detection by a radar, the corner reflector oriented substantially in a common direction with the reflective material.

A display system and methods; in general, a plurality of display sub-assemblies collectively creating a viewing plane. Each display sub-assembly having a plurality of light emitting elements on a substrate with a plurality of substantially equal pixel gaps between light emitting elements. Bend gaps are provided between pixels that enable the display sub-assemblies to bend thereby creating a curved viewing plane. A mobile LED panel display may be formed of a plurality of LED display modules having a plurality of pixels, four or more casters, a battery powered supply, a media player (electrically communicating with the plurality of display modules for controlling the display of images on the LED panel display, and a removable content storage device and; thus, functions as a rugged, light weight, battery powered display to inform customers and passers-by about product and service offerings via a rugged person size mobile light weight battery powered display.

In one embodiment, an image analysis is performed on an image captured using a camera mounted on an autonomous vehicle, the image representing an exterior environment of an autonomous vehicle. Localization information surrounding the autonomous vehicle is obtained at a point in time. A perception of an audience external to the autonomous vehicle is determined based on the image analysis and the localization information. One or more content items are received from one or more content servers over a network in response to the perception of the audience. A first content item selected from the one or more content items is displayed on a display device mounted on an exterior surface of the autonomous vehicle.

A license plate holder includes a base with a first connector for attaching the base to a vehicle, a transmissive substrate, and a frame. The frame defines a central opening to permit display of indicia on a license plate display region of a license plate disposed between the base and the frame. The frame further defines a frame display region adjacent the central opening. The frame includes a rear connector disposed adjacent a rear of the frame to removably attach the rear of the frame to the base and includes a front connector disposed adjacent a front of the frame to removably attach the transmissive substrate to the front of the frame.

One embodiment includes a display system for use on the exterior of a vehicle having a display, a vehicle speed sensor, and a processor coupled to the vehicle speed sensor. The processor is configured to implement one of three operational modes of the display system based on the speed and state of the vehicle: a first operational mode, wherein a first content, including identification and/or registration information of the vehicle is rendered on the display at a first power consumption level; a second operational mode, wherein a second content, including a message, identification and/or registration information of the vehicle, is rendered on the display; and a third operational mode, wherein content is rendered on the display at a second power consumption level less than the first power consumption level.

A display device having a wedge shape body for displaying indicia on a dashboard of a vehicle between a windshield and a dashboard. The wedge shape body having a front surface, a lower surface, a rear surface and a pair of sides. The front surface includes indicia displayed thereon. The lower surface of the wedge shape body is a gripping surface that prevents slippage of the display device. Various items can be secured to the rear surface of the display device, such as a mobile device holder, a deodorant and the like.
