Abstract: A vehicle charging system is provided that allows a plurality of vehicles to be charged simultaneously while driving along a road. The system includes a series of primary coils that are mounted within a road surface and a secondary coil that is mounted within at least one vehicle. Each primary coil in the series of primary coils includes at least two loops having opposite polarities. In addition, the secondary coil includes at least two loops having opposite polarities. The secondary coil then receives a charge from the series of primary coils.

Abstract: An automated collision mitigation system of a vehicle includes a vehicle controller, a free space monitor unit, a rear collision monitor unit, a communicator, a drivetrain system and a braking system. The free space monitor unit detects a free space in front of a host vehicle and the rear collision monitor unit detect parameters of a remote vehicle located rearwardly of the host vehicle. The communicator sends and receives signal from the other vehicles or infrastructures by V2V or V2I wireless network. The vehicle controller evaluates an accelerating time of the host vehicle and a time-to-collision of the rear remote vehicle. In addition, the vehicle controller determines to activate the drivetrain system or the braking system of the host vehicle.

Abstract: A method includes: establishing a connection between a mobile communication device and a controller area network (CAN) bus in a CAN of a vehicle; receiving, via the established connection, information from the mobile communication device, including image information acquired by a camera of the mobile communication device; displaying vehicle information and a representation of an interface of the mobile communication device based on the information received from the mobile communication device in a display area of the vehicle; receiving input for controlling a function of the mobile communication device; and controlling, via the established connection, the function of the mobile communication device according to the received input.

Abstract: A multi-touch smartphone display used as a track pad in a motor vehicle is provided. A system includes a handheld device having a multi-touch display, a vehicle controller that transmits and receives data from the handheld device when the handheld device is docked into the vehicle, and a display that is mounted within the vehicle. The docked handheld device functions as a track pad to receive user input. The display is configured to display vehicle functions and applications on the handheld device. The vehicle controller is configured to transmit one or more commands to one or more vehicle components based on the received user input to execute the command.

Abstract: A method for performing secure Bluetooth communication between a vehicle terminal and a user terminal is provided. The method includes: transmitting a user terminal inverse certificate request message to an authority server; receiving a message from the authority server in response to the transmission of the user terminal inverse certificate request message; obtaining a user terminal inverse certificate from the message received from the authority server; receiving a vehicle terminal inverse certificate from the user terminal in exchange for the user terminal inverse certificate; validating the vehicle terminal inverse certificate; pairing with the user terminal when the vehicle terminal inverse certificate is validated; and performing Bluetooth communication with the paired user terminal.

Abstract: A method of integrating Bluetooth protocols in establishing a connection between a Bluetooth-enabled mobile device and a vehicle telematics system having two or more Bluetooth controllers includes establishing a Bluetooth communication channel between the mobile device and a first Bluetooth controller. The first Bluetooth controller authenticates the mobile device. In response to successful authentication of the mobile device, a secure connection between the first Bluetooth controller and a second Bluetooth controller is established. Authentication credentials of the authenticated mobile device are sent from the first Bluetooth controller to the second Bluetooth controller. Commands received from the mobile device via the Bluetooth communication channel are processed by the first Bluetooth controller or the second Bluetooth controller depending on the protocol utilized by the mobile device.
