A method for rendering clear visibility through the windscreen of a vehicle. The method includes monitoring, by one or more sensors, visibility of a windscreen, wherein monitoring includes analyzing a level of visibility of the windscreen, generating a visibility score, and responsive to the visibility score falling below a predetermined threshold, converting, dynamically, the windscreen into a display surface. The method further includes analyzing an external sensor feed of a vehicle to identify the visibility of a surrounding area. The method further includes initiating, dynamically, a generative adversarial network (GAN) enabled adaptation of the surrounding area of the vehicle, in real-time, to reconstruct a visual based on the external sensor feed, and rendering, in real-time, the GAN enabled adaptation of the surrounding area of the vehicle on a transparent display layer of the windscreen of the vehicle.

A traffic mover includes a mover body forming an accommodation space configured to accommodate a human. The mover body includes a light blocking member and a driving assistance unit. The light blocking member blocks light entering from a front side of the mover body in a moving direction of the mover body. The driving assistance unit enables the mover body to be driven when the light blocking member blocks a forward view of the human in the moving direction of the mover body.

System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to mitigating vigilance decrement of a vehicle operator. In one embodiment, a method includes monitoring the operator by collecting operator state information using at least one sensor of the vehicle. The method includes computing an engagement level of the operator according to a vigilance model and the operator state information to characterize an extent of vigilance decrement presently experienced by the operator. The method includes rendering, on an augmented reality (AR) display, at least one graphical element as a function of the engagement level to induce the operator to maintain vigilance with respect to operation of the vehicle and a present operating environment around the vehicle.

A decorative sheet includes, from the front side to the back side, a skin layer, an intermediate layer, a design layer, and a soft layer. Recesses open on at least one of a front surface and a back surface of the design layer. The decorative sheet further includes display regions formed by the recesses. The display regions display a predetermined design on a front surface of the skin layer by light irradiated from the back side. Light is irradiated from the back side to the display regions via the soft layer. Light blocking partition parts of the soft layer are each disposed between two adjacent display regions as seen from the front side, and prevent light to be irradiated to one display region from leaking into the other display region via the soft layer.

The present disclosure relates to a display device. The display device may be used for a vehicle and may include a display panel, a window, and a first light control layer. The display panel includes pixels arranged along a first direction and a second direction crossing the first direction. The window is disposed on the display panel. The first light control layer is disposed between the display panel and the window and including first photochromic lines. The first photochromic lines extend in the first direction and are arranged along the second direction and include a photochromic material.

A dustproof cover having a reduced size in a depth direction is formed. In displaying a virtual image (53) visible to a driver by reflecting projection light projected in front of a driver on a windshield (light-transmitting member), a dustproof cover provided in a path of the projection light to close an opening (29) includes a recessed surface provided throughout a front and rear direction of a vehicle (10) and a cylindrical surface provided such that the recessed surface is continuous throughout a right and left direction of the vehicle (10). Curvatures of the recessed surface are configured to increase toward a front side of the vehicle (10), and therefore outer light entering the opening (29) from a position above the vehicle (10) is reflected in a direction invisible to the driver.

A system and method can mitigate or prevent contrast ratio issues due to bright light (e.g., light saturation) in a head up display (HUD). The head up display can include a waveguide combiner (or non-waveguide combiner) and a mitigator disposed to prevent or reduce bright light from being provided through the combiner. The bright light can be direct lunar light, direct solar light, or solar/lunar reflections. The mitigator dynamically selects and reduces bright background light which results in an increase of contrast ratio.

An enhanced vision system can be used on a vehicle such as an aircraft. The vision system includes a lens, a sensor array and a chromic layer disposed between the lens and the sensor array. A method can protect a focal plane array associated with an enhanced vision or other sensor from solar exposure. The method includes providing a focal plane sensor array and providing at least one photochromic layer in front of the focal plane array.

A vehicle display device includes: a housing mounted on a vehicle and having an opening facing a windshield; an image display device that is disposed inside the housing and outputs display light of an image; a mirror that is disposed inside the housing, faces the windshield through the opening, and reflects the display light toward the windshield; a cover that is transparent, disposed at the opening and having a free-form surface formed to have an optical function; and a suppression means that is disposed at an edge of the cover and suppresses reflection of light on an end surface of the cover.
