When the side door 102 of the two vehicles 10 is open, the ends of the side door 102 of the two vehicles 10 that are not connected to the body 101 are sealed by the soft rubber, which serves a waterproof function and can improve the waterproof performance.

[0051] Figure 6 The diagram shown is the original working path of the modular vehicle 20 of this application. Combined with... Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the vehicle 10 also includes a radar 114 electrically connected to the vehicle controller 105, which is located on the side of the body 101 of one of the vehicles 10. The radar 114 is used to acquire the body height and / or placement direction of the other vehicle 10 to be joined. Based on the acquired body height and / or placement direction, the vehicle controller 105 adjusts the placement direction of the body 101 of the vehicle 10 and / or controls the opening angle of the side door 102 of the vehicle 10. If the two vehicles 10 are of the same type and have the same body height, seamless joining can be achieved when the side doors 102 of the two vehicles 10 are opened. In this embodiment, the interior panel 103 of the vehicle 10 can be used as a joining and sealing tool for concealment. If the two vehicles 10 have different models and different body heights, the radar 114 and the vehicle controller 105 are used for positioning to determine the body height and / or placement direction for joining, so that joining can be achieved based on the body height and / or placement direction. In this embodiment, other components can be used as splicing and sealing tools for shielding. With this configuration, the splicing car 20 is not only suitable for the same type of car 10, but also for different types of cars 10, thus having a wider range of applications.

[0052] exist Figures 4 to 6 In the illustrated embodiment, each car 10 is equipped with a projector 109, a camera 110, ambient lighting 111, and a speaker 112. After two cars 10 are joined together, their side doors 102 form a canopy, on which multiple projectors 109, multiple cameras 110, multiple ambient lights 111, and multiple speakers 112 can be installed. This arrangement creates different entertainment scenarios and has a wider range of applications.

[0053] In some embodiments, the camera 110 is also used to acquire the user's location information after the two vehicles 10 are stitched together. The vehicle controller 105 adjusts the viewing direction of the camera 110 according to the location information, so that the viewing direction of the camera 110 is directly facing the user. This setting enables accurate acquisition of the user's location information.

[0054] In some embodiments, the camera 110 is also used to acquire the user's location information after the two vehicles 10 are stitched together. The vehicle controller 105 activates one or more speakers 112 closest to the user based on the location information and controls the volume of the one or more speakers 112. Alternatively, it can activate one or more ambient lights 111 closest to the user and control the brightness of the one or more ambient lights 111.

[0055] In some embodiments, the ambient light 111 can be concealed within the interior panel 103, transmitting light through gaps, translucent interior fabric, or light-guiding materials to adjust the atmosphere to various modes such as rest mode, karaoke mode, meditation mode, and movie-watching mode. This configuration can meet users' diverse meeting and audio-visual entertainment needs, thus broadening its application range.

[0056] In this embodiment, the number of speakers 112 is eight, located in the vicinity of the user's position, including those in front, behind, left, right, and midway between any two directions. The camera 110 captures the user's seat position and their continuously moving position. The vehicle controller 105 then activates the nearby speakers 112 based on the position information and controls the activated speakers to increase their volume. The other speakers 112 are controlled to decrease their volume, providing a strong sense of spatial depth. Furthermore, the vehicle controller 105 can adjust the viewing direction of the camera 110 according to the user's seat position, always keeping the user directly in front of it for a clearer image.

[0057] In some embodiments, the vehicle 10 further includes a communication interaction system 115 electrically connected to the vehicle controller 105. Both vehicles 10 include the communication interaction system 115. The communication interaction systems 115 of the two vehicles 10 are interconnected. The projector 109, camera 110, ambient light 111, and audio system 112 are all electrically connected to the communication interaction system 115. After the two vehicles 10 are spliced ​​together, the vehicle controller 105 controls the communication interaction systems 115 of the two vehicles 10 to interact or switch, so as to control the working status of the projector 109, camera 110, ambient light 111, and audio system 112 of the other vehicle 10 opposite to the first vehicle 10. In this embodiment, the communication interaction systems 115 of the two vehicles 10 can communicate with each other, and users can share the audio system, ambient light, and power of the two vehicles 10 within the vehicle 10, achieving a better viewing and entertainment experience. Alternatively, after two cars 10 are connected, one car 10 can control, view, and select various entertainment and vehicle information such as power, audio, video, and data of the other car, including adding, modifying, and deleting them. This setting allows for a wider range of applications.

[0058] In some embodiments, the communication interaction system 115 can be a communication interaction device, located at the four corners of the ceiling after the side door 102 is connected, enabling selection of viewing videos from different angles, and setting viewing modes such as home theater, solo viewing, and rest viewing.
