Abstract: A vehicle includes left-hand and right-hand video monitors. Each of the video monitors includes opposing top and bottom edges and opposing left-hand and right-hand lateral edges extending between the top and bottom edges. A translation mechanism couples the video monitors to a vehicle body. The video monitors are movable between a first position wherein the right-hand lateral edge of the left-hand video monitor is spaced apart from the left-hand lateral edge of the right-hand video monitor, and a second position wherein the right-hand lateral edge of the left-hand video monitor is adjacent to the left-hand lateral edge of the right-hand video monitor.

Abstract: An infotainment system for a vehicle having a first source of electrical power includes an audio/video apparatus installed in the vehicle. An external personal electronic device operates outside of the vehicle. A communications link is communicatively coupled to each of the audio/video apparatus and the external personal electronic device. The communications link is installed in the vehicle and transfers electronic infotainment content between the audio/video apparatus and the external personal electronic device. The transferring includes communicating with air-borne signals between the communications link and the external personal electronic device. The communications link is powered by the first source of electrical power when an engine of the vehicle is in an ON state. An electrical energy storage device is electrically connectable to the communications link. The electrical energy storage device powers the communications link when the engine of the vehicle is in an OFF state.

Abstract: There is provided a current sense circuit (134). An exemplary current sense circuit (134) comprises a voltage-to-current converter circuit (218) that is adapted to receive a voltage that is proportional to a load current drawn from a battery (110) by a load (202) and to produce a current proportional to the load current, and a current-to-voltage converter circuit (228) that is adapted to receive the current proportional to the load current and to produce a voltage proportional to the load current based on a regulated voltage source (230).
