  • Patent number: 11858347
    Abstract: A method for visualizing sensor data from the surroundings of a vehicle and/or measuring data from the vehicle uses light modules in the interior of the vehicle for the visualization of the sensor data. The sensor data is detected as video data, after which the video data is analyzed in relation to relevant recognizable structures, after which the relevant structures are transferred to a video sequence with a format fitting for the respective light module, and/or sensor data not detected as video data and/or measuring data is recalculated into video sequences via an algorithm, after which the video sequences from the different data are superimposed and displayed on the light modules.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20190156666
    Abstract: A driver assistance system for a vehicle uses sensor data, which are provided from monitoring of the environment of the vehicle. The driver assistance system has a processing unit for processing the sensor data and a display device for displaying the processed sensor data. The environment of the vehicle is displayed as a light strip using the display device. Furthermore, an object in the environment of the vehicle is represented by a section on the light strip, wherein the section has a first light characteristic.

  • Patent number: 9358922
    Abstract: An illumination system for an interior of a motor vehicle includes a sensor, with which an environmental lighting situation is able to be detected, as well as an illumination device for illuminating the motor vehicle interior. The illumination system has a controller that is subordinate to the sensor and is superordinate the illumination device. The controller adjusts an interior lighting situation depending on the environmental lighting situation that is influenced by actual objects located in the environment of the motor vehicle, by lights of the illumination device.
