An image processing device comprising: an information acquisition unit configured to acquire outside information including color information of outside of a vehicle; an image generation unit configured to generate, based on the outside information, a first image in which a difference in the color information with respect to the outside of the vehicle is within a predetermined range; and an output unit configured to output the first image to a display provided in a cabin of the vehicle.

A guidance display system includes an AR display device and a server. The AR display device includes a display unit and a display control unit configured to display, on the display unit, an augmented reality image in which an image of a virtual object for guidance is superimposed on scenery of a real world. The server is wirelessly connected to the display device. The server includes a theme park-specific character storage unit, a 3D model extraction unit, and a transmission unit. The theme park-specific character storage unit stores character information set for a theme park. The 3D model extraction unit extracts the character of the theme park set as the destination, as a virtual object for guidance. The transmission unit transmits the image data of the extracted virtual object for guidance to the display control unit of the AR display device.

A movement route estimation device (50) includes an object search unit (504) and a movement route estimation unit (505). The object search unit (504) searches for, as a search feature value, each feature value of two or more feature values from among a plurality of object feature values, based on a similarity between a feature value corresponding to a movable object, which is an object that has moved in a target space in a target period, and a target feature value. The movement route estimation unit (505) obtains a plurality of route candidates indicating candidates for a corresponding route that corresponds to a route, in the target space, on which the movable object has moved in the target period and a plurality of likelihoods respectively corresponding to the plurality of route candidates, based on a capture time corresponding to the search feature value and a position of presence of an object corresponding to the search feature value at the capture time corresponding to the search feature value, and estimates the corresponding route from the plurality of route candidates, depending on the obtained likelihoods.

A route recording with real-time annotation and re-display system includes a first automobile vehicle having one or more camera systems. An imaging display device defining a head-up display (HUD) is positioned within the first automobile vehicle and receives camera imaging data from the one or more camera systems. The HUD includes a video display screen presenting the camera imaging data either in real-time or re-displayed from a pre-recorded image file. A microphone array receives vehicle operator voice data of a first operator of the first automobile vehicle. An annotated-recorded-route is created by adding a user input of the first operator of the first automobile vehicle including the voice data. The annotated-recorded-route identifies specific coordinates or locations along a travel route driven by the automobile vehicle through the voice data after activating recording of the camera imaging data.

An improved in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) system and methodology facilitating the display, computation, receipt and transmission of enhanced data elements and data files. System and methodology comprising an improved IVI system with an enhanced series of software and firmware capable of communicating with external data servers, processing enhanced protocols, transmitting data elements in report form with data attachments, and displaying the received enhanced data elements onto callout icons overlaid onto a GPS navigation interface. Additional system and methods include protocols for external servers to receive, encode, decode, compress, decompress, store, compute and transmit emergency reports and aggregate data files.

An augmented reality (AR)-based route guidance method includes acquiring a driving image captured by an image capturing device of a vehicle which is running, acquiring route data to a destination of the vehicle, recognizing both side lane markings of a lane in which the vehicle is running from the acquired driving image, generating first route guidance linear data based on the recognized both side lane markings for a region in which both side lane markings are recognized in the driving image, generating second route guidance linear data using link linear data of the route data for a region in which both side lane markings are not recognized in the driving image, combining the first route guidance linear data and the second route guidance linear data to generate combined route guidance linear data, and displaying a route guidance object in AR using the generated combined route guidance linear data.

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 method for controlling an XR device outputting a navigation screen. The method may comprise receiving first GPS information, acquiring second GPS information corresponding to a current position of a vehicle, determining whether the first GPS information matches the second GPS information, and displaying a navigation screen based on a map DB stored in the server if the first GPS information is matched with the second GPS information. If the first GPS information is not matched with the second GPS information, the method may further comprise taking a driving image through a camera, comparing the driving image with an image of the map DB stored in the server, searching for a video frame including the most similar point from the image of the map DB, and changing the navigation screen based on the video frame searched from the map DB.

A racing coach device stores data representative of a first path of travel along a racetrack over a first time period and data representative of a second path of travel along the racetrack over a second time period. The racing coach device identifies, for each of a plurality of geolocations along the racetrack, a segment traversed along the first path of travel over which a speed reduction event occurred in the generated video data. The device determines an obstructed portion of the first time period over which the traversed segment along the first path of travel was extended in duration by the speed reduction event. The device determines an average lap time for the first path of travel and the second path of travel based on the obstructed portion of the first time period and controls an output device to provide the determined average lap 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.
