Abstract: This presentation provides methods to track pedestrians heading angle using smart phone data. Tracking heading angle especially at or from stationary position is key for pedestrian safety, e.g., for smart cross system and pedestrian collision mitigation system. It provides pedestrian-to-vehicle (P2V) platform. It deploys smart phones or mobile devices, equipped with DSRC (Dedicated short range communication) support, to act as beacons for pedestrians: Phone can alert driver to pedestrian presence in path; Pedestrian Basic Safety Message (BSM) can aid awareness for vehicles; It can be used for bicycles, as well. It also provides pedestrian-to-infrastructure (P2I) platform. Smart phone, through DSRC/cellular, transmits pedestrian presence to crosswalks/signals: It enables advanced crosswalk lighting/warning scheme; It enables bundling of pedestrian presence to vehicles. In this presentation, we provide various examples and variations on these.

Abstract: A movement member which reciprocates includes a thick portion and a thin portion, a bearing portion formed in the thick portion is slidingly supported by the guide shaft, and a sliding portion formed in the thin portion is slidingly guided by the sliding guide portion. Power of the motor is transmitted to a pinion gear via a speed reduction gear and a speed reduction mechanism inside a gear box, and a movement reaction force is applied from the pinion gear to the rack portion. Since the rack portion is positioned on an axis Os, a force is effectively applied to the movement member by the power from the motor.

Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a control system for use with a vehicle having handlebars that are configured to enable vehicle steering. The handlebars define a pair of grasping portions that are disposed to facilitate grasping by a vehicle operator's hands. The vehicle also includes a powertrain and an accessory. The control system includes a manually actuable primary selector disposed adjacent one of the grasping portions to enable manual actuation while one of the vehicle operator's hands grasps the one grasping portion. The primary selector is configured to operate in a powertrain mode to control an aspect of the powertrain, and to operate in a separate accessory mode to control an aspect of the accessory. A manually actuable override selector is disposed adjacent the one grasping portion. The override selector is configured to be manually actuable to switch the primary selector between the powertrain mode and the accessory mode.
