    Abstract: Disclosed are devices, systems, and methods for a LiDAR mirror assembly mounted on a vehicle, such as an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle. For example, a LiDAR mirror assembly may include a base plate mounted on a hood of a vehicle, where the base plate is coupled to one end of a support arm. The opposite end of the support arm is attached to a housing. The housing includes a top housing enclosure coupled to a bottom housing platform, where a sensor and a mirror is coupled to the housing, and where the sensor is at least partially exposed through an opening in the top housing enclosure. The opening for the sensor is situated near an end of the housing furthest away from the base plate.

    Abstract: Power distribution system architectures are described that can safely and effectively support the power needs of automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) systems and state-of-the-art autonomous systems and devices. In some implementations, a power distribution system may include: vehicle power sources that produce an output voltage to operate one or more devices in the vehicle, and power bridge devices that electrically couple an vehicle power source to the multiple banks of battery bridge devices and to power distribution units (PDUs). Various electrical loads in the vehicle can be electrically coupled to the battery bridge devices and to the PDUs.

    Abstract: Devices, systems and methods for controlling an exterior and dashboard lights of an autonomous vehicle are described. One example of a method for controlling one or more exterior lights includes receiving, from an autonomous driving system (ADS) of the vehicle, an input to control one or more exterior lights that are part of a lighting system of the vehicle, and transmitting, based on the input, a message to a controller area network (CAN) bus of the lighting system, the message being further based on a driver command upon a determination that a driver-initiated message is received. In an example, the lighting system of the vehicle further comprises a plurality of dashboard lights.
