Abstract: A steering device includes: a plurality of proximity sensors having different installation positions of electrodes on the steering wheel; and a grip determination device which determines the presence/absence of gripping of the steering wheel based on filter values Ch_R_f(n), Ch_L_f(n) of measurement values from the plurality of proximity sensors. The grip determination device includes: a capacitance threshold setter which sets a reference value Ch_0 relative to the electrostatic capacitance of the electrode; and a determiner which determines the presence/absence of gripping based on the difference between the measurement values Ch_R_d(n), Ch_L_d(n) and the reference value Ch_0. The capacitance threshold setter determines the necessity for correction of the reference value Ch_0 based on a degree of similarity in change trends of the filter values Ch_R_f(n), Ch_L_f(n) of the plurality of proximity sensors.

Abstract: A portable display apparatus for conveying vehicle-related information using thermal and haptic touch is provided. The portable display apparatus includes circuitry communicatively coupled to a temperature control unit of the portable display apparatus. The circuitry receives from one or more first sensors associated with a vehicle, first temperature information associated with an interior space of the vehicle or an ambient environment of the vehicle and determines a temperature setting based on received first temperature information. The circuitry detects a physical-contact between the portable display apparatus and one of a skin portion or a cloth portion worn by a user. Thereafter, the circuitry controls the temperature control unit based on the determined temperature setting and the detected physical-contact. The temperature control unit is controlled to change a current temperature of at least a first section of the portable display apparatus to a first temperature, which is different from the current temperature.

Abstract: Controlling a display in an augmented reality head-up display for a vehicle. At least one safety-relevant parameter is determined in a first step. If two or more safety-relevant parameters are determined, one of the determined parameters can optionally be selected as a critical parameter. The intensity of the display element displayed on the augmented reality head-up display is subsequently adjusted on the basis of the at least one safety-relevant parameter. The display element is then output for display on the augmented reality head-up display.

Abstract: Arrangements herein relate to an adaptive-alert system for an autonomous vehicle. The system can include a communications circuit interface that can be configured to communicate with an occupant sensor and to receive from the sensor physical state information associated with the occupant. Some of the physical state information may be acquired by the sensor prior to the occupant engaging the vehicle. The system can also include a processor and a warning circuit that can be configured to generate alerts having different levels of severity. The processor can be configured to cause the warning circuit to generate the alerts in response to a detected operational hazard and receive from the communications circuit interface the physical state information associated with the occupant. The processor can also be configured to, based on the received physical state information, cause a level of severity for at least one of the alerts to be adjusted.

Abstract: An in-vehicle controller recognizes that a predetermined driver is operating a vehicle, and, based upon the driver, denies access to an in-vehicle reward feature set. The in-vehicle controller receives data from at least one vehicle system, the data being indicative of driving behavior of the driver, and compares the data with i) positive metrics and ii) negative metrics to categorize the driving behavior. The in-vehicle controller recognizes, from the comparison, that the data matches a predetermined number of the positive metrics, and categorizes the driving behavior as positive driving behavior. In response to the positive driving behavior, a signal is provided; and responsive to the signal, the driver is rewarded by granting access to at least one member of the previously denied in-vehicle reward feature set.

Abstract: An instrumentation assembly suitable for use as a vehicle instrument cluster, and a method to align an image displayed by a reconfigurable display of the assembly to an applique that overlays the display. The applique defines a reference hole located so light from the display to passes through the reference hole. A light sensor detects light from the display that passes through the reference hole. A relative alignment between the display and the applique is determined based on the signal. The relative alignment is used to shift or reposition images on the display so they align with features on the applique. The assembly and method also provide a way to adjust for image flicker of the display.
