Abstract: A drive mode hierarchy includes drive mode categories and drive modes belonging to each category. Each drive mode defines values for attributes of the drivetrain and/or suspension of a vehicle. Each drive mode may further have towing and non-towing sub-modes with the towing sub-mode being used when a trailer is detected. An interface is provided for selecting drive modes from the hierarchy and modifying the attributes. The vehicle may define a plurality of trailer profiles including attributes of trailers, such as weight and aerodynamic drag. A user may select among trailer profiles and define the attributes of the trailer profiles. Interfaces displayed by the vehicle may vary according to the selected drive mode and may include a chassis view with interface elements displaying real-time information of components of the vehicle, such as wheels, suspension, and battery. Tiles including real-time information may be displayed according to the selected drive mode.

The method further includes receiving, from the charging station control system, a charge status light pattern configured to control operation of one or more charge status lights on the electric vehicle and one or more charge status lights on the charging station. The method further includes receiving a wireless time signal, and generating a synchronization time signal based on the wireless time signal. The method further includes controlling, based on the synchronization time signal and the charge status light pattern, operation of the charge status lights on the electric vehicle.

Abstract: Smile treatment planning systems and methods are described herein. One method for adjusting an image of a smile may generally comprise receiving a three-dimensional (3D) digital model of a dental arch of a patient, receiving a digital facial image of the patient which includes an image of one or more teeth of the patient when smiling, registering the 3D digital model to the one or more teeth of the patient from the digital facial image, correcting the 3D digital model for scale and distortion to create a corrected 3D digital model, and overlaying the corrected 3D digital model onto the digital facial image.

Abstract: Airborne LiDAR bathymetry systems and methods of use are provided. The airborne LiDAR bathymetry system can collect topographic data and bathymetric data at high altitudes. The airborne LiDAR bathymetry system has a receiver system, a detector system, and a laser transmission system.

Abstract: A show effect system may include a first mirror coupled to a first actuator and mounted to a wall, a second mirror coupled to a second actuator and mounted to the wall adjacent to the first mirror, and a sensor configured to monitor a viewing area for observing the first mirror and the second mirror, wherein the sensor is configured provide sensor data related to a guest within the viewing area. The show effect system may also include a controller communicatively coupled to the first actuator, the second actuator, and the sensor. The controller may determine the guest is in a location within the viewing area based on the sensor data and instruct the first actuator to adjust a position or an orientation of the first mirror to remove the location from a reflection of the first mirror.

Abstract: A method of detecting and warning an operator of an off-road vehicle of objects in limited-visibility environments. The method includes: detecting a potentially-hazardous object within the vicinity of the vehicle, using a sensor of the vehicle; transmitting data relating to the potentially-hazardous object to a vehicle processor; determining whether the potentially-hazardous object is in a projected path of the vehicle or in a proximity zone of the vehicle; and alerting the operator of the vehicle to the presence and location of the potentially-hazardous object when the potentially-hazardous object is in the projected path of the vehicle or in the proximity zone of the vehicle.

Abstract: A method for dynamically displaying driver vehicle information within a vehicle is implemented by an in-vehicle computing system. The method includes detecting, by the computing system, in communication with a first display and a second display of the vehicle, that the first display is in a first state. The first display is configured to display driver content. The method further includes determining, by the computing system, a portion of the driver content to be displayed on the second display, and providing, by the computing system, and in response to the first state, at least the portion of the driver content for display on the second display.

Abstract: Systems and methods for adjusting a display in a vehicle are provided. The display is configured to present information in one or more regions of the display. The position of a user in the vehicle is detected and based on detecting a change in position of the user, the position of information on the display may be adjusted. For example, when the change in position of the user causes information on the display to be obstructed, the position of the information may be adjusted to an unobstructed region of the display.
