Patent number: 10703278Abstract: Described herein is a rear view mirror system that is configured to adjust to a user's position without direct user interaction. In some embodiments, a camera may be included in the rear view mirror system so that its line of sight is perpendicular to a reflective surface. The camera may capture a digital image of the user. Eye patterns may be identified from the image information to determine an appropriate position for the mirror. In some embodiments, the mirror may be repositioned so that the camera's line of sight is directed halfway between the identified eye information and the center of a rear window. In some embodiments, the mirror may be re-adjusted periodically.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2017Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: THUNDER POWER NEW ENERGY VEHICLE DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LIMITEDInventor: Jia-Wei Ding

Patent number: 10501011Abstract: Dynamically displaying of a brake force is disclosed. A brake pedal force sensor can be used to generate signals indicating an amount or a level of brake force exerted on a brake pedal of a driving apparatus. Such signals can be processed to determine degrees of the brake force exerted. A set of display parameter values can be determined based on the determined degree of the brake force. The set of display parameters can include at least one value for illumination brightness, illumination area, illumination frequency, illumination color, and/or illumination style on a brake light of the driving apparatus. In certain embodiments, the display of the brake force is in a form of sliding bar and/or circular ring, and the brightness and/or the illumination area of the brake light is proportional to the determined degree of the brake force.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2016Date of Patent: December 10, 2019Inventor: Jia-Wei Ding

Patent number: 10183579Abstract: A clustered instrument panel on a display of a dashboard in a transportation apparatus is disclosed. The clustered instrument panel may be used to combine multiple individual instrument panels, such as the odometer, tachometer, temperature meter, battery meter, navigation screen and any other instrument panels that are traditionally presented separate and independent from other instrument panels. The individual instrument panels may be layered on top of each other to form the clustered instrument panel, with gradual increase in size from the first instrument panel to the nth instrument panel. Information associated with a given instrument panel in the clustered instrument panel may be presented in the gap area between the given instrument panel and the neighbor instrument panel in the clustered instrument panel. In one embodiment, the clustered instrument panel is a triple-circle meter.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2017Date of Patent: January 22, 2019Assignee: Thunder Power New Energy Vehicle Development Company LimitedInventor: Jia-Wei Ding

Patent number: 10144375Abstract: Provided in the present disclosure is a fingerprint bookmark system which may be implemented in a vehicle with one or more configurable interior settings. The fingerprint bookmark system may contain a scanner which may be configured to record a fingerprint from a vehicle occupant such that a fingerprint image showing the fingerprint and a duration data for the fingerprint image are recorded by the scanner. The system may contain one or more processors which may be configured to compare the duration data associated with the fingerprint image with a duration threshold. The one or more processors may be configured to initiate a search to obtain a bookmark for the fingerprint shown in the fingerprint image when the duration data is less than the duration threshold. The one or more processors may be further configured to create a new bookmark when the duration data exceeds the duration threshold.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2018Date of Patent: December 4, 2018Assignee: Thunder Power New Energy Vehicle Development Company LimitedInventor: Jia-Wei Ding

Patent number: 10107868Abstract: An improved battery level indicator is provided. A first portion of the battery level indicator can be filled with a first color to indicate a charge level or remaining power level of a battery. A second portion of the battery level indicator can be filled with a second color to indicate a discharge level or consumed power level of the battery. As the battery power continues to be consumed, the battery level indicator re-colors both portions of the battery level indicators periodically with the first and second colors. In some implementations, a small gap portion can be displayed between the two portions described above, and the small gap portion can be filled with a third color, with a color intensity level in between the first and second colors.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2017Date of Patent: October 23, 2018Assignee: THUNDER POWER NEW ENERGY VEHICLE DEVELOPMENT COMPANY LIMITEDInventor: Jia-Wei Ding
