  • Patent number: 9020755
    Abstract: A method of determining a position of a moving vehicle. A global position is detected by a global positioning device of at least one parked vehicle in a vicinity of the moving vehicle. The global position is determined as a function of signals broadcast by a plurality of satellites. Errors associated with the broadcast signals are determined. A correction error that provides a solution for eliminating the errors associated with the broadcast signals is determined. The correction error is transmitted to the moving vehicle. The correction error is applied to a received global positioning signal received by the moving vehicle. A global position of the moving vehicle is determined as a function of the correction error. The determined global position of the moving vehicle is applied in a vehicle application.

  • Patent number: 8702250
    Abstract: An automatically adjusting mirror system including a mirror assembly, a head position sensor configured and arranged to detect a pose of a head of a driver of a vehicle, and a master controller in communication with the mirror assembly and head position sensor. The master controller is configured to receive input from the mirror assembly and head position sensor, and adjust the mirror assembly based on the input from the mirror assembly and the input from the head position sensor to maintain a line of sight for the driver.
