    Abstract: FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a first embodiment of the claimed design for a sensor housing;
    FIG. 2 is a front elevation view thereof;
    FIG. 3 is a back elevation view thereof;
    FIG. 4 is a right side elevation view thereof;
    FIG. 5 is a left side elevation view thereof;
    FIG. 6 is a top plan view thereof;
    FIG. 7 is a bottom plan view thereof;
    FIG. 8 is a front perspective view of a second embodiment of the claimed design for a sensor housing;
    FIG. 9 is a front elevation view thereof;
    FIG. 10 is a back elevation view thereof;
    FIG. 11 is a right side elevation view thereof;
    FIG. 12 is a left side elevation view thereof;
    FIG. 13 is a top plan view thereof; and,
    FIG. 14 is a bottom plan view thereof.
    The broken lines in the figures illustrate elements of the sensor housing that form no part of the claimed design. The dash-dot lines in the figures illustrate perimeters of the claimed design. The dash-dot lines form no part of the claimed design.
    The sensor housing may be arranged along a portion of a vehicle, such as along a roof of the vehicle.
    The areas in the embodiment of FIGS. 8-14 shown in a pattern of stipple illustrate areas of contrasting appearance.

    Abstract: The technology includes a roof pod system for a vehicle configured to operate in one or more partly or fully autonomous self-driving modes. The roof pod system is arranged to sit above the roof of the vehicle, for instance at least 10-50 mm above the roof surface. The roof pod may be supported by a set of legs such as cross-rails. The roof pod system incorporates various sensors and related equipment to assist with self-driving operation. Some sensors may be arranged in the main housing of the roof pod, while others can be located in a dome-type structure extending above the main housing. A cabling harness assembly runs wiring and other links between the roof pod and the vehicle chassis.

    Abstract: The technology provides a camera module cover that prevents infrared light from leaking into the lens of an adjacent camera. The camera module cover can be used with in-vehicle environments, such as the passenger area and truck, as well as other indoor locations and places where infrared illumination is co-located with an optical camera system. An infrared illuminator unit is positioned adjacent to the camera, for instance in such a way that infrared light is evenly distributed or diffused around the camera lens. The camera module cover has a surface that includes an infrared-transparent material to promote even distribution of the infrared light. To avoid leakage into the camera lens, an infrared-opaque or otherwise blocking material is disposed within the cover so as to be between the infrared illuminator unit and the camera lens. The infrared-transparent and infrared-blocking materials may be formed as a single part via double injection molding.
