    Abstract: The present subject matter relates to a method for estimating extent of wear of a suspension system in a vehicle using a computing device. The baseline operational parameters of the suspension system are received, and motion parameters of vehicle are detected. Actual operational parameters of the suspension system are estimated based on the detected motion parameters. An alert to indicate the extent of wear of the suspension system is generated based on determining a deviation of the actual operational parameters from the actual operational parameters.

    Abstract: Infrastructure lighting is controlled from a vehicle. Wireless communication exists between the vehicle and at least one light source of the infrastructure lighting. At least one device of the vehicle is functionally linked to the infrastructure lighting. Switching on a light source of the infrastructure lighting is performed via wirelessly transmitting a first control command to the light source. Switching off the light source is performed via transmitting a second control command to the light source. A blinker is functionally linked to the light source such that activation of the blinker triggers the transmitting of the first control command to light source when vehicle headlights are switched on.

    Abstract: The present subject matter relates to systems and methods for selectively amplifying an acoustic signal in a closed environment. In an implementation, a plurality of acoustic signals may be received from within the closed environment. Frequency ranges corresponding to each acoustic signal may be obtained and compared to determine presence of at least one individual in the closed environment. Acoustic signals pertaining to the at least one individual may be analysed to detect occurrence of a physiological event. Based on the analysis, the acoustic signal may be recognized as a target signal, and the target signal may be amplified in the closed environment. Further, an interfering signal may be generated to cancel other acoustic signals within the closed environment.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for modifying the configuration of a driving assistance system of a motor vehicle includes, during operation in an autopilot mode, detecting that a vehicle driver makes a control input counter to vehicle control directed by the driving assistance system. Data relating to driving conditions existing when the driver made the control input is logged onboard the vehicle and transmitted to an off-board central communications platform. The central communications platform creates a modified configuration for the driving assistance system based on the data and re-transmits it back to the vehicle where it is loaded into the driving assistance system. The modified configuration causes the driving assistance system to automatically control the vehicle in a manner consistent with the control input if the driving conditions reoccur. The modified configuration may also be transmitted to a driving assistance system of one or more other motor vehicles.

    Abstract translation: 用于修改机动车辆的驾驶辅助系统的配置的方法和装置包括在自动驾驶模式下操作期间检测车辆驾驶员对与驾驶辅助系统所指导的车辆控制相反的控制输入。 与驾驶员进行控制输入时存在的驾驶条件有关的数据记录在车辆上并发送到车外中央通信平台。 中央通信平台基于数据创建用于驾驶辅助系统的修改的配置,并将其重新发送回其被加载到驾驶辅助系统中的车辆。 如果驾驶条件重新出现,则改变的配置使得驾驶辅助系统以与控制输入一致的方式自动地控制车辆。 改进的构造也可以被传送到一个或多个其他机动车辆的驾驶辅助系统。
