Abstract: A method for finding a distressed vehicle operated by a first user located in an urban area includes providing a first mobile device of a first user. The first mobile device is electronically connected to a wireless communication network, and the first user is in possession of a vehicle. An event is detected that has occurred to the vehicle and a severity level of the event. When the severity level of the event is above a threshold it is determine that the event was sufficient enough to warrant an emergency response. A current position is determined of the first mobile device of the first user. A second mobile device of a second user is searched for within a first distance of the current position of the first mobile device. A first notification is communicated to the second user via the second mobile device.

Abstract: One general aspect includes a method to indicate the space available to open a vehicle door, the method including: sensing, via a processor, a horizontal distance between the vehicle door and an object in an environment surrounding a vehicle; determining, via the processor, if the horizontal distance is greater than or less than a first threshold value; determining, via the processor, if the horizontal distance is greater than or less than a second threshold value; and providing, via the processor, an indicator based on the determination of whether the horizontal distance is greater than or less than the first threshold value and the determination of whether the horizontal distance is greater than or less than the second threshold value.

Abstract: One general aspect includes a system to mitigate motion sickness/emesis, the system including: a memory configured to include one or more executable instructions and a processor configured to execute the executable instructions, where the executable instructions enable the processor to: in response to an activation of a motion-equalizing device installed in an interior of a vehicle, provide electric stimulus to a vehicle occupant via the motion-equalizing device, where the electric stimulus is designed to mitigate one or more symptoms of motion sickness and/or emesis for the vehicle occupant.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for generating a towing preferred navigational route including an input to receive a request for a navigational route wherein the request is indicative of a destination and a tow mode engagement, a memory to store an aggregated segment data wherein the aggregated segment data is generated in response to a plurality of tow enabled vehicles traveling the segment, a processor to generate the navigational route in response to the request for the navigational route and the aggregated segment data, and an output to couple the navigational route for display to a driver.
