The monitoring device, in a state of outputting the warning, releases the warning when the warning release operation is input to the release operation unit. As a result, the monitoring system can appropriately monitor the monitoring target person in the interior of the vehicle.

Monitoring system

An in-vehicle equipment control system includes a ceiling side controller installed in a ceiling of a vehicle and configured to control equipment installed at least in the ceiling; and a vehicle internal communication device configured to enable the ceiling side controller and a lower side controller to transmit and receive information signals to and from each other, the lower side controller having been installed in a part lower than the ceiling. The ceiling side controller is capable of receiving ceiling side detection signals regarding pieces of ceiling side detection information detected by at least one ceiling side detection device in the ceiling, as ceiling side information signals regarding pieces of ceiling side information, from the at least one ceiling side detection device.

In-vehicle equipment control system

A vehicular interior lighting device includes a main body portion fixed to an inside surface of a roof, a light source accommodated in the main body portion, a light shielding cover portion constituting a housing with the main body portion and covering the light source from below, and a light guide member having a protruding portion protruding along the inside surface from a gap between the main body portion and the cover portion. The light guide member has a diffusion portion formed on a surface of the protruding portion facing downward and diffusing light, a first light guide portion guiding light emitted from the light source to the protruding portion, and a reflecting portion reflecting light guided by the first light guide portion toward the diffusion portion.

Vehicular interior lighting device and roof module

A vehicular display device according to an embodiment includes a light shielding housing fixed to a surface of a roof of a vehicle on a cabin side and having a concave portion concave upward, an opening portion formed at a position facing a rear of the vehicle in the concave portion, and a display device having a display surface disposed in the opening portion with the display surface directed to the rear of the vehicle.

Vehicular display device and roof module

A vehicular interior lighting device includes a main body portion fixed to a roof, a first light source and a second light source accommodated in the main body portion, a light shielding cover portion covering the first and second light sources from below, a light guide member having a protruding portion protruding along the inside surface from a gap between the main body portion and the cover portion, and a condensing lens disposed between the second light source and the light guide member. The light guide member has a diffusion portion formed on a surface of the protruding portion facing downward and a reflecting portion reflecting light emitted from the second light source toward a part of the diffusion portion. The diffusion portion emits light in whole by light emitted from the first light source and partially emits light by light emitted from the second light source.

A vehicle warning device includes a housing disposed at a front of a roof in a vehicle compartment, a plurality of light emitting units provided in the housing to emit warning light having directionality, a seating sensor that detects a seated state of an occupant on each of back seats in the vehicle compartment, a wearing sensor that detects a wearing state of a seat belt of each of the back seats, and an ECU that controls turning on of each of the light emitting units based on the seated state and the wearing state, and each of the light emitting units corresponds to the occupant on each of the back seats, and has an optical axis disposed with respect to the housing toward an eye point region ER including an eye point of the occupant on the back seat.

Vehicle warning device
