  • Patent number: 11833969
    Abstract: In general, techniques are described by which a computing system dynamically and automatically adjusts an orientation of one or more mirrors of a vehicle. A computing system includes at least one processor and memory. The memory includes instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to determine a current orientation of a mirror of a vehicle and determine a preferred orientation of the mirror based upon a set of data points. Execution of the instructions also causes the at least one processor to output a command to adjust the mirror to the preferred orientation in response to determining the current orientation is not the preferred orientation.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11518371
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method performed by a body parameters supporting system of a vehicle for supporting obtaining body parameters of a person. The body parameters supporting system determines—with input from one or more surrounding detecting sensors adapted to capture a surrounding exterior of the vehicle—one or more body parameters capturing conditions for a person present outside the vehicle. The body parameters supporting system further communicates one or more instruction signals indicating one or more body motion and/or obstruction removal instructions, wherein the one or more instruction signals are determined in consideration of counteracting, changing and/or overcoming at least one of the one or more body parameters capturing conditions. The disclosure also relates to a body parameters supporting system in accordance with the foregoing, and a vehicle comprising such a body parameters supporting system.
