Project Titan: Scene Camera System

 

Today Apple was granted patent 10,757,373 which covers a future vehicle system that includes a plurality of scene cameras mounted. In one instance, an omnidirectional camera which can be used to record an event happening around a police vehicle. Another use is to use the cameras to encourage safe driving of a vehicle by recording images of the surface of the road and part of the vehicle. In the event of an accident the recorded images could be used as proof of safe driving.

 

Apple further notes that there is known a mobile phone application called "ASAP54" that allows the user, upon seeing a particular outfit or style the user is interested in on a real person or magazine, to take a photograph of the outfit using a camera on an iPhone. By using image recognition, the application can find that piece of clothing the user is looking at and a number of similar fashions. For employing this, the user is required to focus the camera of his/her mobile phone on the object of interest.

Project Titan: Climate Control System

 

Today Apple was granted patent 10,752,082 titled "Climate control system with slit-vent fluid delivery." Vehicle climate control systems are designed to change environmental conditions such as humidity and temperature within a vehicle cabin. Many climate control systems adjust environmental conditions by providing thermally conditioned fluid, generally air, to the vehicle cabin using a series of ducts, outlets, and user-manipulated directional control devices. Apple's Project Titan granted patent relates to a new climate control system for future vehicles.
