    Abstract: A warning system is provided for alerting a Vulnerable Road User (VRU) of a predicted collision. The system includes one or more input devices for transmitting a first input signal associated with a first vehicle positioned in a first lane, a second input signal associated with a second vehicle positioned in a second lane, and a third input signal associated with the VRU located on a crosswalk that extends across the first and second lanes. The system further includes a computer having a processor and a non-transitory computer readable medium. The processor is programmed to determine the predicted collision between the second vehicle and the VRU at a predicted collision site. The processor is further programmed to generate an actuation signal. One or more roadway notification devices notify the VRU that the second vehicle is positioned in the second lane and headed toward the predicted collision site in the crosswalk.

    Abstract: Systems, vehicles, and methods for controlling light are provided. In an exemplary embodiment a vehicle with a cabin includes a light senor positioned within the vehicle, where the light sensor is configured to send a light intensity signal. A lamp module is positioned within the vehicle, where the light sensor is in communication with lamp module. The lamp module is configured to trigger a darkness lighting scheme when the light intensity signal is at about a darkness set value or less. A lamp is positioned within the cabin, where the lamp is in communication with the lamp module. The lamp is configured to emit a darkness spectrum when the lamp is activated and when the lamp module triggers the darkness lighting scheme. The darkness spectrum has a maximum illumination wavelength less than about 555 nanometers.

    Abstract: A method for driver-defined vehicle to vehicle communications includes receiving, by a controller of a host vehicle, remote-vehicle data from a plurality of remote vehicles. The method also includes identifying, by the controller of the host vehicle, at least one V2X-capable remote vehicle of the plurality of remote vehicles using the remote-vehicle data. The V2X-capable remote vehicle is capable of receiving and transmitting V2X communications. The method also includes receiving, by a user interface of the host vehicle, an input from a vehicle occupant of the host vehicle in response to identifying at least one V2X-capable remote vehicle. The input is indicative that the vehicle occupant wants to communicate a prerecorded voice message to V2X-capable remote vehicle. The method also includes transmitting the prerecorded voice message to the at least one V2X-capable remote vehicle in response to receiving the input from the vehicle occupant.

    Abstract: Systems and method are provided for notifying an operator of a vehicle of reverse operation of a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes: determining, by a processor, reverse direction operation of a first vehicle on a road; selectively generating, by a processor, notification data based on the reverse operation, map data, camera data, and speed data, wherein the notification data includes information to notify an operator of a second vehicle of the reverse operation; and selectively generating, by a processor, communication data based on the reverse operation, wherein the communication data includes information to notify at least one of a third vehicle and a remote transportation system of the reverse direction operation.
