Abstract: A front trunk (frunk) delivery system is disclosure for a vehicle. For one embodiment, the delivery system includes a vehicle trunk at a front portion of the vehicle. The system includes a vehicle trunk lid covering the vehicle trunk. The system includes a bar code at the vehicle. The bar code is to be captured by a mobile device of a first user to remotely operate the vehicle trunk lid for the vehicle trunk to deliver or retrieve (for returns) a delivery parcel/package. The first user can be a third party delivery operator such as a USPS or an Amazon delivery operator.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a set of sound sensors coupled to one or more processing systems that process sound data from the set of sound sensors in order to provide assisted driving features or functionality such as an emergency vehicle avoidance.

Abstract: A vehicle that includes at least two LIDAR systems can process data from the two LIDAR systems in an interleaved manner such that data from only one of the two LIDAR systems during a given time period is processed, thereby reducing the computational load on a data processing system in the vehicle. For example, the data processing system can receive and process first LIDAR data captured by a first LIDAR system during a first time period and then receive and process second LIDAR data captured by a second LIDAR system during a second time period that follows the first time period; the data processing system, in one embodiment, does not process data from the second LIDAR system if available and captured by the second LIDAR system during the first time period.

Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for shifting a road view of a display for a vehicle. For one embodiment, a system determines a vehicle has come to a standstill. Upon determining that the vehicle has come to a standstill, the system automatically shifts a display of a first view for the vehicle to a second view. The system determines the vehicle is in motion after being in a standstill. Upon determining that the vehicle is in motion after being in a standstill, the system automatically shifts a display of the second view for the vehicle back to the first view. For one embodiment, the first view includes a third-person view and the second view includes an overhead view.

Abstract: Described herein are various embodiments for using a touch screen with polar coordinates thereon to control the movements of seats in a vehicle. An exemplary method of adjusting seats in a vehicle includes the operations of detecting a touching on a circumference of a circular graphic on a touch screen in a vehicle, wherein the circular graphic is in a polar coordinate system on the touch screen; and determining a polar angle formed by a point of the touching on the circumference of the circular graphic in the polar coordinate system. The method further includes the operations of calculating a first value and a second value associated with the polar angle, each of the first value and the second value representing a movement range in a direction; and adjusting a vehicle seat based on the first value and the second value, including simultaneously moving the vehicle seat in in a first direction indicated by the first value and a second direction indicated by the second value.

Abstract: Systems and methods to recognize a parking space are disclosed. One or more images are captured using one or more cameras coupled to a vehicle at a parking space. Data associated with the parking space are determined from the one or more images. The data associated with the parking space are compared to data stored in a storage device. A parking condition for the vehicle is determined based on the comparing.
