FIG. 2 is a rear, bottom, and side perspective view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a first implementation.

FIG. 3 is a top view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a first implementation.

FIG. 4 is a bottom view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a first implementation.

FIG. 5 is a left side view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a first implementation.

FIG. 6 is a right side view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a first implementation.

FIG. 7 is a front view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a first implementation.

FIG. 8 is a rear view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a first implementation.

FIG. 9 is a perspective view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a first implementation within environmental structure.

FIG. 10 is a front, top, and side perspective view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a second implementation.

FIG. 11 is a rear, bottom, and side perspective view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a second implementation.

FIG. 12 is a top view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a second implementation.

FIG. 13 is a bottom view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a second implementation.

FIG. 14 is a left side view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a second implementation.

FIG. 15 is a right side view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a second implementation.

FIG. 16 is a front view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a second implementation.

FIG. 17 is a rear view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a second implementation; and,

FIG. 18 is a perspective view of the front sensor pod showing the new design according to a second implementation within environmental structure.

Within the drawings, the straight-line surface shading and stippling show the character and contour of the surfaces in the claimed design of the front sensor pod. The broken lines show unclaimed portions of the front sensor pod, and thus form no part of the claimed design. Certain drawings include broken lines showing the environmental structure of a truck tractor unit to illustrate environmental aspects only and form no part of the claimed design. Any broken line illustration of environmental structure in the drawings is not part of the design sought to be patented.

Claims
