A vehicle display device includes a housing to be mounted on a vehicle and having an opening, a display unit disposed inside the housing and configured to project a display image toward a reflection unit arranged in front of a driver seat through the opening, and a controller configured to cause the display unit to exhibit a range display that defines a maximum range for a display image, upon detection of information indicating a change in the viewpoint of a driver on the vehicle

An agent device includes: an agent functional unit configured to provide a service including an output of a response to a voice to an outputter in response to a speech of an occupant of a vehicle; and a display controller configured to cause a display provided in the vehicle to display an animation regarding an agent corresponding to the agent functional unit. The display controller moves the animation between a first display area included in the display and a second display area of which a position is different from a position of the first display area in the vehicle in response to an instruction from the occupant.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a camera monitor system providing areas of importance to a driver, to a corresponding vehicle and to a method for operating such a camera monitor system comprising at least two separate cameras arranged to record camera views of the surrounding of the vehicle being different for each camera and at least one monitor with a monitor screen suitably arranged to provide the recorded camera views on the screen at least to the driver of the vehicle, wherein the provided camera views and/or an arrangement of the different recorded camera views on the monitor screen depend(s) on a status of the vehicle, wherein a control unit is adapted to observe the status of the vehicle and to alter the arrangement of the camera views provided on the screen in dependence on the observed status of the vehicle.

An information providing apparatus, for a vehicle, includes a skill level determining unit, a driving load determining unit, and an information provision controller. The skill level determining unit is configured to determine a driving skill level of a driver of the vehicle when the vehicle is traveling. The driving load determining unit is configured to determine a driving load on the driver. The information provision controller is configured to control provision of information to the driver on the basis of the driving skill level and the driving load.

A vehicle trim element including a body defining the shape of an outer surface and an information display system, the trim element being able to be positioned in a first configuration and in a second configuration, wherein the display system is moved along a first direction between the first configuration and the second configuration and in that the shape of the outer surface is modified between the first configuration and the second configuration.

In one aspect, a device includes at least one processor, a display accessible to the at least one processor, and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage includes instructions executable by the at least one processor to receive input regarding an object at which one person is looking and to present, to another person via the display, a graphical indication regarding the object.

There is provided a vehicle safety system including a sensing unit, a processing unit, a control unit and a display unit. The sensing unit is configured to capture an image frame containing an eyeball image from a predetermined distance. The processing unit is configured to calculate a pupil position of the eyeball image in the image frame and generate a drive signal corresponding to the pupil position. The control unit is configured to trigger a vehicle device associated with the pupil position according to the drive signal. The display unit is configured to show information of the vehicle device.

A detection is made as to whether a vehicle occupant seated on a vehicle seat of a seating system of a motor vehicle has put on a pair of electronic data glasses. If the vehicle occupant has put on a pair of electronic data glasses, a check is performed to determine whether a predetermined minimum distance exists between the vehicle seat and an interior component of the motor vehicle. If the minimum distance exists, an adjustment range of the seating system is restricted in such a way that it is not possible to fall below the minimum distance. If the minimum distance does not exist, the minimum distance is established by automatically adjusting the seating system and/or outputting a message relating to the noncompliance with the minimum distance.

A vehicle display device includes a first display unit disposed in a first portion of a vehicle and including a first display panel to display a first image and a first power supply to supply a first power supply voltage to the first display panel, the first power supply configured to detect an abnormality of a signal output to the first display panel to generate a first shut-down control signal; a second display unit disposed in a second portion of the vehicle and including a second display panel to display a second image and a second power supply to supply a second power supply voltage to the second display panel, the second power supply configured to detect an abnormality of a signal output to the second display panel to generate a second shut-down control signal; a third display unit disposed in a third portion of the vehicle and configured to display a third image or at least one of the first and second images; and a controller to receive first image data corresponding to the first image, second image data corresponding to the second image, and third image data corresponding to the third image to provide the received first image data, the received second image data, and the received third image data to the first display unit, the second display unit, and the third display unit, respectively. The controller is configured to supply the first image data to the third display unit in response to the first shut-down control signal, and to supply the second image data to the third display unit in response to the second shut-down control signal.

A vehicle display device includes a tubular member disposed such that an opening edge thereof faces a driver side, a projection unit that projects light toward an inner space of the tubular member, a semitransparent mirror that is disposed in the inner space of the tubular member and reflects light projected from the projection unit toward the driver side to cause a virtual image to be displayed, an image display unit that is disposed on a side opposite to the driver side with respect to the semitransparent mirror in the tubular member and displays an image, and a design unit that is disposed between the image display unit and the semitransparent mirror in the inner space of the tubular member and has a stereoscopic shape.
