Abstract: A means of transport and a device (10) for outputting a request for a driver of a means of transport to take over vehicle guidance are proposed. The device (10) comprising: a line-shaped first LED strip (1) with a first electrical connector (5) comprising a first plurality of LEDs (3), a line-shaped second LED strip (2) with a second electrical connector (6) comprising a second plurality of LEDs (4), a control device (7) comprising an interface (8) configured to receive the first electrical connector (5) and the second electrical connector (6), wherein the first plurality of LEDs (3) is arranged interleaved with respect to the second plurality of LEDs (4) and the control device is configured to output the request as light signals by controlling the first electrical connector (5) and the second electrical connector (6).

Abstract: A communication system for units and controllers of a vehicle includes a unit configured to transmit a plurality of messages to a controller. A first communication path is configured to transfer a message from the plurality of messages between the unit and the controller, and a second communication path configured to transfer the message from the plurality of messages between the unit and the controller. The second communication path is redundant with respect to the first communication path, and the unit is configured to transmit the plurality of messages to the controller alternately via the first communication path or the second communication path.

Abstract: A method is provided for visualizing specified safety-critical information in a vehicle. First display data are (AD_1) are determined, which are representative of a first image (B1) to be visualized, which provides the specified safety-critical information in a specified first signalization form, the first display data (AD_1) being determined free of specified safety regulations. The first display data (AD_1) are sent to a display unit (DISP) of the vehicle and test data (DD) are read out, which are representative of an image visualized on the display unit (DISP). The test data (DD) are checked and, if the test data (DD) are representative of a faulty provision of the specified safety-critical information, second display data (AD_2) are sent to the display unit (DISP), which are representative of a second image (B2) to the visualized, which provides the specified safety critical information in a specified second signalization form, which differs from the first signalization form.

Abstract: A method is provided for visualizing specified safety-critical information in a vehicle. First display data are (AD—1) are determined, which are representative of a first image (B1) to be visualized, which provides the specified safety-critical information in a specified first signalization form, the first display data (AD_1) being determined free of specified safety regulations. The first display data (AD—1) are sent to a display unit (DISP) of the vehicle and test data (DD) are read out, which are representative of an image visualized on the display unit (DISP).
