Abstract: A method for operating a plurality of acoustic signal transmitters of a motor vehicle is disclosed, wherein booking information is obtained from an external computing unit by means of a control system of the motor vehicle. By means of the control system, a first part of the plurality of acoustic signal transmitters is deactivated depending on the booking information. By means of the control system, a control signal is generated for each of the acoustic signal transmitters of a second part of acoustic signal transmitters to generate an acoustic output.

Abstract: Technologies and techniques for controlling a lighting device of a motor vehicle, which includes at least one display surface and/or at least one lighting unit. At least one image capable of being provided by a mobile terminal and/or by an external computing device automatically selected; image data describing the at least one selected image is received; and image content information, which describes a color gradient of the at least one selected image, is determined by applying an image content determination criterion to the provided image data. The lighting device is controlled considering the determined image content information, wherein an appearance generated by means of the lighting device is adapted to the color gradient of the at least one selected image.

Abstract: A device for temperature control for a motor vehicle, includes a diffractive optical element disposed on a surface of the motor vehicle, and a radiator. The diffractive optical element couples in incident radiation and conducts the coupled-in incident radiation away from an area of the motor vehicle to be cooled. The radiator includes an absorber to absorb the coupled-in incident radiation which is conducted to the absorber from the diffractive optical element. The radiator releases energy based on the coupled-in incident radiation absorbed by the absorber.

Abstract: A vehicle seat, including a plurality of actuators that can be activated independently of one another and that are arranged in a matrix-like manner, at least one sensor system for detecting an object on the vehicle seat, and at least one control unit for activating the actuators. The control unit may be configured to activate the actuators as a function of a detected contour of the object, so that the contour of the vehicle seat adapts to the contour of the object, and to a method for adapting a vehicle seat to a vehicle occupant.
