  • Publication number: 20250111822
    Abstract: A system may include a display having a housing, a cover lens coupled to the housing, a light plate assembly in the housing, a diffuser that overlaps the light plate assembly, a louver layer that overlaps the diffuser, and a ring light source that emits additional light around the periphery of the light plate assembly and through the cover lens. The light plate assembly may include an array of light-emitting components. To improve the efficiency and contrast of the light plate assembly, reflective fill material may be formed around each light-emitting component, and absorptive fill material may surround the reflective fill material. The absorptive fill material may absorb ambient light, while the reflective fill material may redirect stray light out of the display. Dam material may surround the absorptive fill material and/or the reflective fill material.

  • Patent number: 12026795
    Abstract: Based on a cost function that estimates a value of a confidence level above a confidence threshold using user information, an autonomous control system can determine that a user of a user device is ready for a pickup, identify a pickup location based on the user information, and determine a trajectory from a current location to the pickup location. A propulsion system is configured to cause motion current location toward the pickup location according to the trajectory.

  • Publication number: 20240144822
    Abstract: A vehicle may have devices such as knobs, sliders, touch sensors, cameras, and other devices for gathering user input, capturing images, and gathering other information. Control circuitry in the vehicle may display an interactive route map on a display in the vehicle body. The route map may have a route line depicting a route between a starting point and an ending point for a journey. The control circuitry may move a vehicle icon in forward and reverse along the route line in response to the user input to select a vehicle icon location. The control circuitry may display media that corresponds to the selected vehicle icon location. The media may include an image captured by the camera, media retrieved from remote databases, and/or other content associated with the location of the vehicle icon.

  • Publication number: 20240102811
    Abstract: A first input to a mobile device indicates a first navigation destination at a first level of specificity. The mobile device initiates navigation towards a first location corresponding to the first navigation destination. While navigation towards the first location corresponding to the first navigation destination is ongoing and before reaching the first location, in accordance with a determination that one or more first criteria are satisfied, the mobile device prompts for an input for determination a second location corresponding to a second navigation destination with a second level of specificity, the second level of specificity more specific than the first level of specificity. The mobile device receives a second input in response to the prompt. In accordance with a determination that the second input satisfies one or more second criteria, the mobile device initiates navigation towards the second location corresponding to the second navigation destination.
