Abstract: Presented are intelligent electronic footwear and apparel with controller-automated features, methods for making/operating such footwear and apparel, and control systems for executing automated features of such footwear and apparel. A method for operating an intelligent electronic shoe (IES) includes receiving, e.g., via a controller through a wireless communications device from a GPS satellite service, location data of a user. The controller also receives, e.g., from a backend server-class computer or other remote computing node, location data for a target object or site, such as a virtual shoe hidden at a virtual spot. The controller retrieves or predicts path plan data including a derived route for traversing from the user's location to the target's location within a geographic area. The controller then transmits command signals to a navigation alert system mounted to the IES's shoe structure to output visual, audio, and/or tactile cues that guide the user along the derived route.

Abstract: The invention relates to a headlight for a motor vehicle having a plurality of main light modules configured to produce a main light distribution for low beam and high beam. The headlight also has a laser light module comprised of one or more laser diodes configured to produce a laser light distribution in addition to the main light distribution. The headlight is configured such that, during operation, the laser light distribution is movable in a manner decoupled from the main light distribution and relative to the main light distribution.

Abstract: An increase in the execution period of light distribution control is inhibited by reducing the number of images required for the light distribution control while achieving both object detection and light distribution control function. The present invention has an object detection unit for performing an object detection process, a light point detection unit for performing a light point detection process, and a light distribution control unit for controlling the illumination state of headlights on the basis of the result of the object detection process and the result of the light point detection process.

Abstract: A lighting module for a motor vehicle includes a first light source and a first collimator for generating a first light beam of “low beam” type in collaboration with a first projection lens. Also included are second and a third light sources, the second light source collaborating with a second collimator to generate a first beam complementing the first light beam in order to form a second light beam of “high beam” type. In order to reduce the visibility of a cut-off zone in the second beam, the third light source collaborates with a third collimator and/or a second projection lens in order to form a second complementary beam which at least partly overlaps the cut-off zone. A front headlight for a motor vehicle can include such a lighting module.
