An in-car cloud VR device includes: a GIS information acquisition unit that detects a location of a vehicle through a GPS sensor installed in a traveling vehicle and acquires the GIS information near the vehicle; an thing information acquisition unit that collects videos around the vehicle through at least one camera sensor installed in the vehicle and acquires surrounding thing information around the vehicle; a movement information acquisition unit that acquires movement information of a user in the vehicle through at least one gyro sensor; and an FOV video determination unit that determines a first FOV video based on the GIS information, updates the first FOV video based on the surrounding thing information, and determines a second FOV video within the first FOV video based on the movement information of the user.

Methods and systems for improved integration of an overhead representation (e.g., a map) with a street view representation. A user interface with at least two regions is output for display to a user. One region includes an overhead representation of an area and an interactive control overlaid onto the overhead representation. Another region includes a street view perspective that has a point of view corresponding to a position and directional orientation of the interactive control. Information about a user input that adjusts the interactive control is received and the street view perspective is updated to track the control as it is adjusted. The field of view of the street view perspective may be reflected in the appearance of the interactive control. Additionally, the street view perspective may follow the location of a marker as it is moved around the overhead representation.

A display device linked to a vehicle which transmits a request for point of interest (POI) information based on sensing data of the vehicle to an augmented reality (AR) digital signage platform providing system; recognizes a spatial location of a building associated with POI information; transmits a rendering request for generating AR digital signage corresponding to the POI information on a floor-by-floor basis; receives a rendering result comprising the generated AR digital signage; displays a driving image acquired through a camera having the AR digital signage mapped to a display area in the driving image; and in response to the display area being changed in the driving image, transmits, to the system, information related to the changed display area and receiving an updated rendering result for mapping the AR digital signage to the changed display area in the driving image.

The present disclosure relates to providing transit information in an augmented reality environment. In some embodiments, images are obtained using one or more image sensors, a determination is made whether the obtained images include a map, and, in accordance with a set of one or more conditions being satisfied, transit information is displayed in the augmented reality environment. A location of the displayed transit information in the augmented reality environment may correspond to a respective feature of the map.

Systems and methods may selectively collect information from a host vehicle. In one example, ft method may include causing collection of navigational information associated with an environment traversed by the host vehicle; storing the collected navigational information: determining, based on an output of at least one navigational sensor, a location of the host vehicle; transmitting the determined location of the host vehicle to a server: receiving, from the server and in response to the transmitted determined location, a request for transmission of a selected subset of the navigational information. collected by the host vehicle; and transmitting the selected subset of the navigational information to the server.

One example provides a computing device configured to capture, via the camera, first image data imaging a first physical world location, create a first spatial representation of the first physical world location based on the first image data, receive a user input defining a pose of a first virtual spatial anchor point relative to a feature imaged in the first image data, track user movement to a second physical world location, capture second image data imaging the second physical world location, receive a user input defining a pose of a second virtual spatial anchor point relative to a feature imaged in the second image data, and send, to a remote computing device, data representing the first spatial representation, the pose of first spatial anchor point, the second spatial representation, the pose of second spatial anchor point, and a positional relationship between first and second spatial anchor points.

A processing device according to one aspect of the present invention includes a vibration detecting unit configured to detect a vibration of a vehicle, an orientation detecting unit configured to detect an orientation of the vehicle, a storing unit configured to store information indicating the orientation of the vehicle, a processing unit configured to set an orientation of a vehicle on a map of a navigation system based on the information indicating the orientation of the vehicle, and a power supply controlling unit configured to control power supplied to the orientation detecting unit and the storing unit based on a detection result of the vibration detecting unit and in response to an accessory power of the vehicle turned OFF.

Methods and systems are provided for providing guidance when reversing a vehicle towing a trailer. In one embodiment, a method includes: storing, in a data storage device, parameters associated with the vehicle and the trailer; when the vehicle towing the trailer is determined to be operating in reverse, receiving image data associated with an environment of the vehicle; computing, by a processor, an anticipated yaw rate of the trailer based on the parameters and steering angle data; determining, by the processor, at least one feature of at least one trailer guideline based on the anticipated hitch angle; and generating, by the processor, display data based on the image data and the at least one feature of the at least one trailer guideline.

A designated location preview method includes obtaining an image of a portion of an environment of a vehicle dispatched to a designated location in response to a service request from a user, wherein the obtaining is performed using at least one onboard sensor of the vehicle; and displaying the image of the environment portion on a user interface (UI) of a user device substantially in real-time.

An example system includes an electronic device and a server. The electronic device includes a display; a first communicator; and a first controller configured to: control to transmit, to the server, location data identifying locations of the electronic device. The server includes a second communicator; and a second controller configured to: control to receive the location data; identify a course of travel; link photograph images to locations on the course of travel; and control to transmit to the electronic device the course of travel and the photograph images. The first controller of the electronic device is configured to control to receive the course of travel and the photograph images and to control to display on the display, at the same time, a map image, the course of travel, and one or more of the photograph images linked to a selected location on the course of travel.
