The autonomous vehicle generates an overlapped image by overlaying HD map data over sensor data and rendering the overlaid images. The visualization process is repeated as the vehicle drives along the route. The visualization may be displayed on a screen within the vehicle or at a remote device. The system performs reverse rendering of a scene based on map data from a selected point. For each line of sight originating at the selected point, the system identifies the farthest object in the map data. Accordingly, the system eliminates objects obstructing the view of the farthest objects in the HD map as viewed from the selected point. The system further allows filtering of objects using filtering criteria based on semantic labels. The system generates a view from the selected point such that 3D objects matching the filtering criteria are eliminated from the view.

To dynamically restyle map features related to a navigation route on a digital map, a server device and/or a client device selectively applies different visual styles to certain map features to emphasize and de-emphasize navigation routes or other logically linked sets of map features. For example, the server device instructs the client device to visually emphasize the road segments included in the navigation route, de-emphasize road segments not in the navigation route, and leave the remaining features at the default (standard) level of detail. The client device then re-renders the map features accordingly.

A display apparatus for a vehicle includes: a controller configured to create a 3D map based on a neon view by selecting essential information among map information; and a display device configured to display the 3D map based on the neon view created by the controller, wherein the controller displays a structure on a background screen of the map information by using a shadow or displays the structure on a dark background screen by using an outline of the structure when the 3D map based on the neon view is created.

Computer implemented methods and systems for deploying response vehicles based on a virtual environment. A server may obtain a virtual model of an overall region wherein the virtual model was generated based upon a plurality of images captured by a remote imaging vehicle. The server may then provide the virtual model to a user electronic device for rendering in a virtual environment. The server may then determine a target location within the overall region at which the response vehicle should be deployed and generate a route for the response vehicle to follow. The route may be based on damage indicated by the virtual model of the overall region. The server may then provide the route to the user electronic device and/or the response vehicle.

Generally, an information processing device according to one embodiment includes storage, a receiver, a detector, an extractor, and a position specifier. The storage stores therein, imaging positional information indicating, identification information on a landmark set, and registration landmark information, in association with one another. The receiver receives a captured image for position specification from an onboard device. The extractor extracts imaging landmark information serving as information on a detected landmark from the captured image for position specification. The position specifier specifies the position indicated by the imaging positional information associated with the identification information on the landmark set including the registration landmark information similar to the imaging landmark information as the position of a vehicle at time when the captured image for position specification is taken.

Disclosed are a display device linked to a vehicle and an operating method thereof. More specifically, the display device may communicate with a system to display AR digital signage on a building in a driving image of the vehicle on a floor-by-floor basis. Also, by mapping and displaying AR digital signage that has been displayed on the building on a floor-by-floor basis on an AR carpet displayed on a road in the driving image while the vehicle is about to or is expected to enter the building, it is possible to significantly enhance visibility and ensure safe driving.

The present disclosure provides an interactive method based on electronic map, which is performed by a computer device. The method includes displaying a navigation route for a target object in a display interface of an electronic map; displaying a dynamic three-dimensional model at a target position in the navigation route, the target position indicating a current position of the target object, and a current display state of the dynamic three-dimensional model corresponding to the current moving state of the target object; and changing a display state of the dynamic three-dimensional model in response to a change of the moving state of the target object in the navigation process associated with the navigation route.

Some embodiments provide a mapping application that displays a rotation of a 3D map and corresponding rotation of a set of map labels overlaying the 3D map in response to receiving input to rotate the 3D map. When a particular map label in the set of map labels rotates towards an upside down orientation, the mapping application also replaces the particular map label with a version of the particular map label arranged in a right side up orientation to prevent the particular map label from being displayed in the upside down orientation in the 3D map.

Aspects of the disclosure relate providing a lane change notification when a vehicle is to perform a lane change. One or more computing devices may generate and display a video, where the video is generated from a perspective of a virtual camera at a default position and default pitch. The one or more computing devices may receive an indication that the vehicle is to perform a lane change from a first lane to a second lane and adjust, after the vehicle receives the indication, the default position and default pitch of the virtual camera to an updated position further above the vehicle relative to ground than the default position and an updated pitch directed more towards the ground than the default pitch. The video may be generated and displayed from the perspective of the virtual camera at the updated position and updated pitch.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to providing an end of trip sequence when a vehicle is nearing its destination. One or more computing devices may generate and display a video indicating a projected trajectory of the vehicle and objects detected by sensors on the vehicle, on a map corresponding to a route the vehicle is currently following, where the video is generated from a perspective of a virtual camera at a default position and default pitch A determination that the vehicle has reached a threshold relative to the route of the vehicle may be made and the position and pitch of the virtual camera may be adjusted to an updated position above the vehicle and a perspective which looks downwards towards a roof of the vehicle. The video may then be generated and displayed from the perspective of the virtual camera at the updated position.
