  • Patent number: 11587434
    Abstract: A device and related method are associated with a focus vehicle. The device comprises a sensor that senses area information about an information area usable to assist the focus vehicle and an oncoming vehicle to pass each other, a transmitter that broadcasts the area information via a vehicle-to-vehicle network protocol, and a controller. The controller produces an assisting result from the area information and vehicle information related to the focus vehicle and the oncoming vehicle. The vehicle information includes first distance information of the focus vehicle from the information area, and second distance information of the oncoming vehicle from the information area. The device includes a display that displays virtual traffic information representing at least stopping and proceeding of the focus vehicle onto a windshield of the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 11227020
    Abstract: A webpage from a network server is received. The content of the received webpage is parsed. A first set of contextual data from one or more sources is collected. A first relationship between the collected first set of contextual data and the parsed content is identified. The identified relationship is determined to satisfy a first threshold. The parsed content is stored in a database for future display in response to the identified relationship satisfying the first threshold. At least a portion of the parsed content not stored in the database is displayed.

  • Patent number: 11163267
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure describe automatically changing a time zone of a mobile device to a current time zone. The method detects a first event for a mobile device from a plurality of events. The plurality of events represents a possible time zone change from a first time zone. The method generates a time change value based on detection of the event. The method detects a subsequent event for the mobile device and modifies the time change value. The method determines the time change value exceeds a change threshold value and changes a time zone display of the mobile device from the first time zone to a second time zone based on at least one detected event for the mobile device.

  • Patent number: 10832568
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for transferring image data taken by an on-vehicle camera. The image data and nearby-vehicle information on a vehicle are received, where the image data and the nearby-vehicle information are successively transferred from each of a plurality of vehicles capable of making a communication with each other. Furthermore, information on a line of vehicles is generated based on the nearby-vehicle information. The image data is then associated with the information on the line of vehicles. Display data may then be generated using the image data. Furthermore, the display data may be presented on a display device in the vehicle.
