Abstract: Methods and vehicle with sound visualization are provided. A vehicle includes a graphic projection display; exterior microphones mounted to the vehicle; and a processing device programmed to receive audio signals from the exterior microphones; retrieve map data in a region around the vehicle; identify from the audio signals a sound of interest; identify a location of a source of the sound of interest; determine a stationary status or a moving status of the source; when the source has the moving status, determining a direction and speed of movement of the source; ascertain from the map data and from the location, stationary status, moving status, direction, and/or speed, a preferred driving maneuver; determine a graphic exemplifying the preferred driving maneuver; and display the graphic upon the graphic projection display.

Abstract: A packet data communication on-chip interconnect system is provided including a network interface efficiently controlling a transaction performed between at least one master intellectual property (IP) block and at least one slave IP block connected via a Network on a Chip (NoC). According to an aspect of the present invention, traffic functioning and throughput of the entire NoC may be improved by appropriately controlling an operation of performing a lock operation according to an Advance eXtensible Interface (AXI) protocol in the network interface of the packet data communication on-chip interconnect system.
