  • Publication number: 20230359419
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for an intelligent HUD. An intelligent HUD may include intelligently enabled display information. Intelligently enabled display information may include vehicle statistics, environmental statistics, warnings, instructions, and other relevant information. Intelligently enabled display information may be displayed on the HUD at a relevant time based on a triggering event. A triggering event may be operation of a vehicle contrary to law, an unsafe driving condition, or a change in information relevant to a driver. Intelligently enabled display information may be turned off after a set period of time, after a driver adjusts vehicle operation in response to a warning or instruction, and/or after a triggering event concludes.

  • Patent number: 10832575
    Abstract: Methods and systems for alerting a driver of a vehicle of parking conditions within a predetermined distance of a destination. The system includes a transceiver of the vehicle configured to receive, from one or more other vehicles, parking condition data including one or more indicators of parking conditions within the predetermined distance of the destination. The system also includes an electronic control unit (ECU) of the vehicle connected to the transceiver. The ECU is configured to determine a parking congestion level based on the parking condition data. The ECU is also configured to determine whether the parking congestion level exceeds a threshold parking congestion level. The ECU is also configured to instruct an output device to alert the driver of parking congestion near the destination when the parking congestion level exceeds the threshold parking congestion level.

  • Patent number: 10501033
    Abstract: A vehicular data correlation system includes a first network access device (NAD) of a first vehicle; and a database server having processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to cross-reference a first driver settings dataset in a driver settings database to a first vehicle dataset in a vehicle database to form a first enhanced data packet, cross-reference a first vehicle conditions dataset in a vehicle conditions database to a first driver dataset in a driver database to form a second enhanced data packet, correlate the first enhanced data packet with the second enhanced data packet, download the first enhanced data packet to the first NAD, download the second enhanced data packet to the first NAD, and transmit a first initiation signal to implement the first driver settings dataset and to display the first vehicle conditions dataset on the first vehicle, via the first NAD.
