Displaying a vehicle notification in a location determined based on driver eye gaze direction and other criteria

A computer-implemented method includes: monitoring, by a computing device, a driver's eye gaze direction; receiving, by the computing device, a notification; determining, by a computing device, a location to display the notification based on the driver's eye gaze direction; and generating, by the computing device, display instructions to display the notification in the determined location.

Method and device for a graphical user interface in a vehicle with a display that adapts to the relative position and operating intention of the user
10592078 · 2020-03-17 · ·

In a method for supplying a graphical user interface in a vehicle, at least one object for representing a first subset of total information is graphically displayed on a display area in at least one first display mode. An operating intention of a user is detected. In addition, a relative position of the user with respect to the display area is ascertained. When the operating intention of the user has been detected, the object is transferred into a second display mode, in which the object is displayed perspectively or three-dimensionally pivoted about an axis at a pivoting angle in the direction of the relative position. In addition, a device is adapted for providing a graphical user interface.

Display device for a motor vehicle

The disclosure specifies a display device for a motor vehicle. The display device has a memory unit that stores visual requirements of vehicle occupants, an identification component that identifies a vehicle occupant, a processing unit that is designed to assign the visual requirements to an identified vehicle occupant and transfer the assigned visual requirements to a display. The display is individually adjustable to visual requirements of a vehicle occupant.

Display device, mobile device, display method, and recording medium

A display device mountable on a mobile object includes an image forming unit to form an image with light and a light guide to guide the light forming the image to a transmission and reflection member to cause a virtual image of the image be display within a display area. The virtual image overlaps an object outside the mobile object. The image is formed such that a vanishing point of the virtual image being displayed is displaced from a vanishing point of the object.
