Abstract: A vehicular exterior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head and a mounting arm. The mirror head is mounted at the mounting arm via an adjustment mechanism. With the mounting arm attached at a side of a vehicle, an adjustment mechanism is operable to adjust the mirror head relative to the mounting arm between a retracted position and an extended position. The adjustment mechanism includes an actuator that is electrically operable to pivotally adjust a link that includes a first end pivotally attached to the mirror head and a second end pivotally attached at the mounting arm. The adjustment mechanism, when the actuator is operated, moves the mirror head along a path between the retracted and extended positions. The actuator is disposed at the mirror head so that, when the mirror head moves between the retracted and extended positions, the actuator travels along the path with the mirror head.

Abstract: A vehicular interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head adjustable about a mounting base. The mirror head accommodates a mirror reflective element. A light emitter is accommodated by the mirror head and is electrically operated to emit near infrared (NIR) light. A light sensor is accommodated by the mirror head and, when the light emitter emits NIR light, the light sensor detects NIR light that reflects off an object within the cabin and that passes through the mirror reflective element. Based on detection of NIR light by the light sensor, presence of a user's hand at or near the mirror reflective element is determined.

Abstract: A vehicular lighted exterior rearview mirror system includes a lighted exterior rearview mirror assembly for mounting at a side of a vehicle. A light module is disposed at the lighted exterior rearview mirror assembly. The light module includes at least three illumination sources linearly arranged at a circuit board. When the at least three illumination sources are individually actuated, light emitted by each individual illumination source is emitted outboard away from the side of the vehicle. When the at least three illumination sources are actuated responsive to a first input, the light module emits light in a first pattern. With the lighted exterior rearview mirror assembly mounted at the side of the vehicle, and when the at least three illumination sources are actuated responsive to a second input, the light module emits light in a second pattern that is different from the first pattern.

Abstract: A vehicular exterior door handle assembly includes a base portion configured to mount at an exterior door handle region of a vehicular door, a handle portion, and a sensing device operable to sense presence of a person's fingers in a pocket region behind the lower portion of the handle. The handle portion is pivotable between a non-deployed orientation, where an outer surface of the handle portion is coplanar with an outer surface of the vehicular door at the exterior door handle region, and a deployed orientation, where the handle portion is pivoted inward into a door handle pocket within the vehicular door. With the handle in the deployed orientation and when a person's fingers are in the pocket region, the sensing device senses presence of the person's fingers at the pocket region and triggers an actuator of the vehicular exterior door handle assembly to unlatch the vehicular door.

Abstract: A vehicular interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head adjustable about a mounting structure that includes an arm having a ball member. The mirror head includes a socket that receives the ball member. The arm and the ball member have a passageway. The mirror head accommodates an electronic component and a heatsink that is thermally coupled to the electronic component and draws heat away from the electronic component when the electronic component is electrically operated and generates heat within the interior cavity of the mirror head. An air source directs airflow through the passageway and into the interior cavity of the mirror head and the airflow flows through the interior cavity of the mirror head and exits the interior cavity of the mirror head to dissipate heat from the heatsink and the interior cavity of the mirror head.

Abstract: A vehicular charge port closure system includes a cover panel disposed at a charge port of a vehicle. The cover panel is movable between a closed position and an opened position. When an actuator is electrically operated to move the cover panel between the closed position and the opened position, the actuator imparts translational movement of a translating element relative to the charge port and an outer panel of the vehicle. The cover panel is pivotally mounted at the translating element. When the actuator is operated to move the cover panel from the closed position to the opened position, the translating element moves relative to the charge port and outer panel and the cover panel moves at least partially away from the outer panel of the vehicle and toward the charge port and moves at least partially behind the outer panel of the vehicle and away from the charge port.

Abstract: A service for providing messaging extension apps can be an online store that can be browsed and searched for the apps. The store uses extension app identifiers which are related to app identifiers that are sent between devices in a conversation of messages so that a receiving device can, when it does not have the extension app installed to interact with received content, use the extension app identifier to download and install the required extension app. In one embodiment, the download and install can occur while the messaging app remains the foreground app, and the messaging app adds an icon of the newly installed extension app into a browsable tray in the UI of the messaging app.

Abstract: A vehicular interior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head that accommodates an electronic component and a heatsink assembly. The heatsink assembly includes (i) a first portion that is thermally coupled to the electronic component and draws heat from the electronic component, (ii) a second portion that extends from the first portion, (iii) a chamber extending between the first and second portions and (iv) a phase-changing refrigerant within the chamber. With the refrigerant in a liquid phase and responsive to heating of the first portion, the refrigerant draws heat from the first portion and changes to a gaseous phase. With the refrigerant in the gaseous phase, the refrigerant flows within the chamber and along the second portion and condenses at an inner surface of the second portion to transfer heat to the second portion. The heat is dissipated from the second portion to exterior the mirror head.

Abstract: A vehicular cabin monitoring system includes an interior-viewing camera disposed at an interior rearview mirror assembly within an interior cabin of a vehicle. A light emitter is disposed at the interior rearview mirror assembly and, when electrically operated, emits near infrared light to illuminate at least a portion of the interior cabin that is viewed by the interior-viewing camera. Image data captured by the camera is transferred to and is processed at an electronic control unit (ECU). The vehicular cabin monitoring system, via processing at the ECU of image data captured by the interior-viewing camera, (i) detects presence of an occupant occupying a seat within the vehicle and (ii) determines posture of the occupant relative to the occupied seat. Based at least in part on the determined posture of the occupant relative to the occupied seat, improper posture of the occupant relative to the occupied seat is determined.
