Abstract: A vehicle switch system for a mobile device that helps connect the mobile device to a vehicle so that certain features of the mobile device, like those pertaining to navigation and entertainment, can be easily accessed through the vehicle. The vehicle switch system is particularly well suited for use with vehicles that lack in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) systems, as users of such vehicles oftentimes cannot access the features of their mobile devices through their vehicle. The vehicle switch system may include a vehicle switch with a switch component and a switch indicator and a docking station, where a “short press” of the switch component enables the docking station to charge the mobile device and a “long press” of the switch component initiates a process to wirelessly connect the mobile device to the vehicle electronics system. The switch indicator displays a connection status of the mobile device.

Abstract: A component for a vehicle interior may comprise a display system comprising a light source and a composite structure comprising a base layer, an intermediate layer and a cover layer. The base layer may comprise a surface comprising a set of elements. The composite structure may present a composite visual effect contributed by the composite structure and/or a visual effect contributed by light from the light source. The visual effect contributed by the composite structure may comprise a visual effect without light from the light source and/or a visual effect with light from the light source transmitted through the composite structure. The composite visual effect of the display system may comprise a visual effect of the form/elements of the base layer and/or the form/visual object/pattern of the intermediate layer and/or the form/visual object/pattern of the cover layer.

Abstract: A vehicle interior lighting device includes a light source which is installed at an end of an instrument panel of a vehicle. Light emitted from the light source propagates from the instrument panel toward a door panel, and is projected on a surface of a door trim of the door panel. A decorative pattern element is installed on a light emitting side of the light source. As light from the light source passes through the decorative pattern element, the light can create a pattern on a surface of the door trim. Because the light source is installed on the instrument panel spaced from the door trim rather than on the door trim itself, light can be projected on a large area of the door trim. Furthermore, an impressive feature of a decorative pattern which changes in accordance with a door opening angle can be achieved.
