    摘要: A container includes a transportation section and a drone section. The drone section has a drone place holder and a door. The drone place holder is accessible when the door is in an open position. The container includes a processor that is programmed to actuate the door to the open position, actuate a drone, fittable in the drone place holder, to fly out of the container, and actuate the drone to transport the container to a destination.

    摘要: Apparatus for a motor vehicle comprises an image sensor generating non-trichromatic image data as an image pixel array covering a predetermined field of view relative to the vehicle. A color-calibration source generates at least one color reference value according to an object depicted in the non-trichromatic image data. A controller is configured to 1) associate the at least one color reference value to a set of pixels within the image pixel array, and 2) colorize the non-trichromatic image data according to the at least one color reference value to produce a colorized image. A display is configured to display the colorized image to a viewer in the vehicle.

    摘要: Method and apparatus are disclosed for vehicle monitoring of mobile device state-of-charge. An example vehicle includes a communication node, a charging station, and a controller. The controller is to receive, via the communication node, a state-of-charge (SOC) of a mobile device and determine a predicted SOC at a destination based on the SOC, a rate-of-change of the SOC, and a travel time to the destination. The controller also is to emit, responsive to the predicted SOC being less than a threshold, an instruction to couple the mobile device to the charging station.

    摘要: A vehicle includes: motor(s), local sensors, processor(s) configured to: generate a virtual map based on the local sensors; receive a plurality of reports from a plurality of external entities, statistically compare the plurality of reports, and identify an outlying report based on the statistical comparison; instruct the external entity responsible for the outlying report to mark future reports; ignore marked reports; generate the virtual map based on unmarked reports; reallocate virtual map processing resources based on unmarked reports.
