    Abstract: An assembly for a vehicle interior includes at least one armrest each presenting a receiving surface for the elbow and/or forearm of an occupant of the vehicle interior and a support for the armrest. Each armrest has a panel movable in translation relative to the support according to an elevation direction between a first position and a second position. For each armrest, the movable panel of that armrest includes an upper panel portion at least partially delimiting the receiving surface of that armrest extending in a first plane, and a side panel portion separate from the upper panel portion extending in a second plane, different from the first plane, the side panel portion having a heating element configured, when activated, to diffuse heat.

    Abstract: A method for regulating comfort in a passenger compartment of a vehicle, the passenger compartment including a seat, a radiant panel, and a heating device for the seat; the method being implemented by a controller having a memory containing a pre-established map. The method includes the following steps: acquiring a data item that is characteristic of the state of the passenger compartment, the characteristic data item including the temperature of the passenger compartment; determining, from the map, an optimal comfort level as a function of the characteristic data item; reading, in the map, regulation values associated with the optimal comfort level, the regulation values including values representative of the operating power of the radiant panel and of the heating device for the seat; and transmitting the read regulation values to the radiant panel and to the heating device.

    Abstract: A detection system designed to be mounted in a first vehicle. The detection system has a detection device configured to detect the presence of a second vehicle in a detection zone of the first vehicle, an alert device configured to generate a first stimulus perceptible by the driver of the first vehicle if a second vehicle is present in the detection zone, and a monitoring device configured to detect a reaction by the driver of the first vehicle in response to the first stimulus. The alert device is configured to generate a second stimulus in case of reaction by the driver of the first vehicle in reaction to the first stimulus.
