    Abstract: Embodiments include methods, systems and computer readable storage medium for demand prediction and energy resource pre-allocation and/or relocation. The method includes monitoring, by a processor, venue event information for one or more locations. The method further includes calculating, by the processor, an energy resource demand based on a charge demand model. The method further includes determining, by the processor, whether the energy resource demand exceeds available energy resource stations provided at the location. The method further includes instructing, by the processor, one or more vehicles having spare energy resources to contribute at least a portion of the spare energy resources to meet the energy resource demand exceeding the available energy resource stations.

    Abstract: A method of hitching a tow vehicle to a trailer includes determining a distance between a coupler on the trailer and a hitch on the tow vehicle. A video of the coupler on the trailer is captured with the rearview camera, and displayed on a display screen of the tow vehicle. The tailgate and the rearview camera are positioned in a generally upright first position when the determined distance between the coupler on the trailer and the hitch on the tow vehicle is greater than a predefined distance. The tailgate and the rearview camera are positioned in a partially lowered second position when the determined distance between the coupler on the trailer and the hitch on the tow vehicle is equal to or less than the predefined distance to provide a better perspective of the hitch and coupler.

    Abstract: A smart sensor-cover apparatus for covering a sensor, such as a vehicle sensor, includes controllable layers, responsive to inputs, such as a wavelength-filtering controllable layer to selectively filter out select wavelengths of light; a polarizing layer controllable layer to selectively polarize or allow through light; a concealing controllable layer to change between a visible state and a concealed state; and an outermost, cleaning, layer configured to melt incident ice. The outermost layer in various embodiments has an outer surface positioned generally flush with an outer vehicle surface for operation of the apparatus, to promote the concealing effect when the concealing layer is not activate. The outermost layer may be configured to self-mend when scratched, and in some cases is hydrophobic, hydrophilic, or super hydrophilic outer surface. An insulating component, such as a glass or polycarbonate layer, is positioned between each adjacent controllable layer.

    Abstract: An ajar tailgate detection system for a vehicle having a parking assist system and a method for controlling the same are provided. The ajar tailgate detection system may include, but not limited to, a camera configured to output image data and a processor communicatively coupled to the camera and the parking assist system, the processor configured to determine when the tailgate is open based upon the image data output from the camera generate, when the tailgate is determined to be open, one of instructions to load a tailgate ajar calibration file into the parking assist system or instructions to disable the parking assist system, the tailgate ajar calibration file defining a second vehicle length and defining a second data acquisition range of the at least one sensor and transmit the generated instructions to the parking assist system.

    Abstract: A host vehicle includes a combustion engine configured to provide a propulsion torque to satisfy a propulsion demand. The vehicle also includes at least one sensor configured to detect a position of a reference vehicle. A vehicle controller is programmed to determine a path between a current host vehicle location and an upcoming intersection. The controller is also programmed to forecast a path clearance time at which the host vehicle is able to traverse the intersection in response to sensor data indicating the reference vehicle moving within the path ahead of the host vehicle. The controller is further programmed to deactivate the engine prior to a host vehicle stop based on the path clearance time being greater than a time threshold.

    Abstract: A system and method to distinguish between a lane change and a turn of a vehicle as an intended movement of the vehicle based on a driver-initiated motion toward an adjacent lane that is adjacent to a lane occupied by the vehicle include obtaining input from one or more sources. The one or more sources include a sensor system or a communication system. The method also includes processing the input from the one or more sources to obtain indirect information that indicates a direction of travel in the lane adjacent or to obtain direct information specific to a location of the vehicle, determining whether the lane change or the turn is more likely to be the intended movement based on the indirect information or the direct information, and modifying an action of a vehicle system based on the determining whether the lane change or the turn is more likely.
