  • Patent number: 12347047
    Abstract: A VR system for vehicles that may implement methods that address problems with vehicles in motion that may result in motion sickness for passengers. The VR system may provide virtual views that match visual cues with the physical motions that a passenger experiences. The VR system may provide immersive VR experiences by replacing the view of the real world with virtual environments. Active vehicle systems and/or vehicle control systems may be integrated with the VR system to provide physical effects with the virtual experiences. The virtual environments may be altered to accommodate a passenger upon determining that the passenger is prone to or is exhibiting signs of motion sickness.

  • Publication number: 20250010847
    Abstract: Signals usable to determine a path of a vehicle towards a particular stopping point in a vicinity of a destination are detected from an individual authorized to provide guidance with respect to movements of the vehicle. Based at least in part on the signals and a data set pertaining to the external environment of the vehicle, one or more vehicular movements to be implemented to proceed along the path are identified. A directive is transmitted to a motion control subsystem of the vehicle to initiate one of the vehicular movements.

  • Publication number: 20240311220
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a technique for mitigating errors tied to software applications. According to some embodiments, the technique can be implemented by a server device, and include the steps of (1) identifying at least one error associated with a user of a software application, (2) identifying at least one client device associated with the user and on which the software application is installed, and (3) providing, to the at least one client device, an indication of the at least one error to cause the software application to, in conjunction with being loaded and/or displayed on the at least one client device: display a user interface that includes information derived from the indication, wherein the user interface is sandboxed from the software application in a manner that prevents the software application from observing activity that occurs within the user interface.

  • Patent number: 12090916
    Abstract: Light-based devices may be provided that emit light. The light-based devices may be incorporated into systems such as vehicles. The light-based devices may include light sources such as light-emitting diodes and lasers. Mirrors may be used to collimate light from the light sources. Light modulators may be used to pattern light from the light sources. The light sources may include light sources of different colors. Arrays of pixels may be used to provide dynamically varying patterns of emitted light. A light source may produce light that is diffracted by an array of diffractive elements on a window. Mechanical and electrical shutters may obscure light sources, mirrors, and light-emitting components mounted on windows.
