  • Patent number: 10642266
    Abstract: A safe warning system for automatic driving takeover includes a sensing unit, a wireless communicating unit, a driver detecting unit, a system self-testing unit, a human-machine interaction computing unit and an interface warning unit. The sensing unit senses an environmental condition to generate an environmental condition datum. The wireless communicating unit receives a cloud datum to generate a field status datum. The driver detecting unit detects the driver to generate a driver controlling datum. The system self-testing unit detects the sensing unit, the wireless communicating unit and the driver detecting unit to generate a system testing datum. The human-machine interaction computing unit receives and computes the environmental condition datum, the field status datum, the driver controlling datum and the system testing datum to generate an interface warning datum. The interface warning unit receives the interface warning datum and shows a warning signal to the driver.

  • Patent number: 10569782
    Abstract: A deciding method of an interactive autonomous safe driving system for switching a driving mode of a vehicle includes an environmental detecting step and a driving mode judging step. The environmental detecting step is for driving an environmental detecting device to sense environmental conditions of the vehicle so as to generate a plurality of environmental condition data. The driving mode judging step is for controlling the driving mode by a controlling device according to the environmental condition data. The interactive autonomous safe driving system includes an environmental detecting device, a switching device and a controlling device. The environmental detecting device includes a plurality of environmental sensors. The environmental sensors sense environmental conditions of the vehicle so as to generate a plurality of environmental condition data. The controlling device controls the driving mode according to the switching state and the environmental condition data.

  • Publication number: 20110072123
    Abstract: An auto-meter system includes a CAN-Bus for transmitting a CAN-Bus signal, and a first CAN module coupled to the CAN-Bus. The first CAN module is for receiving the CAN-Bus signal transmitted from the CAN-Bus and for transforming the CAN-Bus signal to a message signal. The auto-meter system further includes a display and a processor coupled to the CAN module and the display. The processor is for receiving the message signal and for controlling the display to show information corresponding to the message signal.
