Abstract: A physical toggle button located in a cabin of a vehicle receives input indicating a change in state of the physical toggle button from a first mode in which a plurality of functions of smart home devices are set to a first state to a second mode in which the plurality of functions of the smart home devices are set to a second state. Using a telematics control module of the vehicle, a state change request is sent indicating the change in state to a cloud service maintaining a function mapping including information for setting the plurality of functions between the first state and the second state.

Abstract: A modular programmable widget for a vehicle includes a front housing and a back housing defining an enclosure; one or more physical controls provided on a front face of the enclosure; a contact pad exposed by the enclosure for electrical connection to a dock, the contact pad providing for transmission of data and power between the modular programmable widget and the dock; and one or more features for mechanical connection and securing of the modular programmable widget to the dock.

Abstract: A dock for receiving modular programmable widgets includes a body defining a securing channel for receiving the modular programmable widgets, the securing channel being sized to conform with a profile of an attachment body of the rear of the modular programmable widgets; a plurality of dock connectors configured to receive contact pads of the modular programmable widgets; and locators defined by the securing channel into the securing channel to aid in placement of the modular programmable widgets in positions where the contact pads of the modular programmable widgets are aligned with one of the dock connectors.

Abstract: A harness adjustment device for adjusting a length of webbing includes a toothed rotational member including a spool structured to receive the webbing and an end portion including teeth disposed at an end of the spool, the toothed rotational member being structured to rotate to draw in or let out the webbing, and an engagement mechanism having an engagement portion. The engagement portion is structured to move between a first position in which the engagement portion abuts against the toothed rotational member between at least two of the teeth and prevents rotation of the toothed rotational member, and a second position in which the engagement portion is separated from the toothed rotational member and allows rotation of the toothed rotational member.

Abstract: A harness spacer includes a base having a first outer slot, a second outer slot, and a central slot, wherein the first outer slot, the second outer slot, and the central slot form an H-shape, a first arched member extending from the base and creating a first opening, and a second arched member extending from the base and creating a second opening, wherein the base is composed of a pliable material.

Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a safety interface device that securely attaches to a length of webbing, while simultaneously providing a plurality of non-intersecting apertures to couple to a corresponding plurality of safety devices. In some embodiments, the safety interface device may be retrofitted to a closed webbing on a pre-fabricated safety harness. In some exemplary embodiments, the element may be opened and closed by providing two pivotably coupled plates, permitting the webbing to be installed when the plates are opened, and secured when the plates are closed. Various embodiments, for example, provide a securing pin which automatically locks the device to the webbing when the device is closed around the webbing. In some embodiments, the device will be again locked in a secondary fashion whenever a safety device is attached to the interface plate. Thus, at least two distinct actions may be required to open the device.
