Abstract: A shifter assembly includes a housing, a shifter member, a movement restrictor, sensors and a positioning device. The housing has a chamber with magnetorheological fluid and an electromagnetic coil to selectively generate a plurality of levels of magnetic field densities through the magnetorheological fluid. The shifter member moves between at least a park position, a reverse position and a drive position. The movement restrictor is disposed within the chamber of the housing for movement between a first section of the chamber and a second section of the chamber. The magnetorheological fluid provides levels of movement resistance to the movement restrictor. The sensors are positioned to detect changes in position of the shifter member. The positioning device is configured to selectively position the shifter member to any of the park position, the reverse position and the drive position in response to electronic signals received by the positioning device.

Abstract: An autonomous vehicle includes a vehicle body, at least one detector, at least one display and at least one controller. The at least one detector is configured to detect a presence of an external object within a vicinity of the vehicle. The at least one display is supported on the vehicle body. The at least one controller is programmed to determine the presence of the external object upon detection of the external object by the detector. The controller is further programmed to display a rationale indicator on the display to a remote party within the vicinity of the vehicle based on a detection result of the detector indicating the presence of the external object. The rationale indicator is an indication of an external condition occurring in the vicinity of the vehicle.

Abstract: A structural member extends in a vehicle longitudinal direction. An off-center impact structure has a first member and a second member. The first member has a linear portion and an offset portion both having a hollow interior. The first linear portion extends through a first opening in the structural member in a direction perpendicular to the structural member and further extends in an outboard direction from the structural member. The offset portion is angularly offset from the first linear portion and extends laterally outboard and forward relative to the structural member. The second member has a first section and a second section. The first section is disposed within the hollow interior of the linear portion of the first member and the second section extends through of an opening in the first member outboard from the opening of the first member away from the hollow interior.

Abstract: Methods and systems for remote support of autonomous operation of vehicles have been disclosed. State indicators are generated by a first state display based on state data from a portion of vehicles assigned to a respective first level control station. A second state display is generated for a second control station and displays state indicators for the state data of the vehicles. A remote support interface including the first state display and image data received from a first vehicle of the vehicles is generated. Instruction data to the first vehicle is transmitted using the remote support interface and based on an indication that the first vehicle needs remote support, the instruction data modifying the autonomous operation of the first vehicle. A workload between the first level control stations is allocated by assigning the vehicles using the state indicators of the second state display.

Abstract: A conveyor assembly includes a trolley, a skid, a stationary cam member and a cam follower. The skid is positioned on the trolley. The stationary cam member is downstream of the trolley. The cam follower is fixed to the trolley for pivotal movement with respect thereto. The cam follower moves in response to contact with the stationary cam. With the trolley in a first location the cam follower moves to a release orientation. With the trolley moved to a second location the cam follower moves to a stop orientation. In the stop orientation a surface of the cam follower contacts the skit restricting movement thereof. In the release orientation the cam follower is moved away from the skid such that the skid is movable in the second direction past the cam follower.

Abstract: A vehicle body structure has a cargo area structure, a retractable step and a handle assembly. The cargo area structure has a floor, a first side wall and a tailgate at least partially defining a cargo area. The retractable step is installed to the cargo area structure beneath the floor and the first side wall and adjacent to the tailgate. The handle assembly has a base and a grip handle fixedly attached to the base. The base is attached to the first side wall with a portion of the base overlaying a corresponding portion of the upper surface of the first side wall and with an attachment assembly extending through the at least one opening in upper surface of the first side wall with a first portion of the grip handle extending inboard over the floor of the cargo area.

Abstract: A solid-state battery includes an anode current collector and an anode layer on the anode current collector. The anode layer comprises anode active material composed of anode active particles each encapsulated in a solid ion conductor. The solid-state battery also includes a cathode current collector and a cathode layer on the cathode current collector. The cathode layer comprises cathode active material composed of cathode active particles each encapsulated in the solid ion conductor. A solid electrolyte structure separating the anode layer and the cathode layer has anode-side columns and cathode-side columns aligning parallel to a stacking axis of the solid-state battery, the anode-side columns extending into the anode layer and the cathode-side columns extending into the cathode layer.

Abstract: A hands-free liftgate sensor for a vehicle includes a mounting bracket connected to a rear fascia member. The mounting bracket includes a bracket body having a plurality of rearward and forward flexible hooks. A rearward laterally extending channel is disposed in the mounting bracket. The plurality of rearward flexible hooks are opposite the rearward laterally extending channel. The rearward laterally extending channel is substantially laterally centered on the rear fascia member. A forward laterally extending channel is disposed in the mounting bracket. The plurality of forward flexible hooks are opposite the forward laterally extending channel. The forward laterally extending channel is substantially laterally centered on the rear fascia member. A plurality of first fasteners secure a rearward portion of the mounting bracket to the rear fascia member. A plurality of second fasteners secure a forward portion of the mounting bracket to the rear fascia member.

Abstract: A vehicle body structure includes a vehicle cargo structure and a handle assembly. The vehicle cargo structure has a floor and a first side wall at least partially defining a cargo area at a rearward end of a vehicle, The handle assembly has a base and a grip handle. The base is attached to the first side wall above the floor within the cargo area. The grip handle is movable relative to the base between a stowed orientation in which the grip handle is at a location lower than an upper surface of the first side wall and a gripping orientation in which at least a portion of the grip handle extends higher that the upper surface of the first side wall. With the grip handle in the gripping orientation an individual entering the cargo area grabs the grip handle for assistance in stepping up into the cargo area.
