The invention relates to a device for controlling interior lighting of a motor vehicle interior including at least one light source, a projection support and a control module. The control module is capable of configuring the projection support so that it can receive at least one image emitted by the light source. The invention also relates to a method for lighting at least a part of an interior space of a motor vehicle by such an interior lighting device.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a head-up display device capable of providing countermeasures against solar light without using a shutter or a reflective polarizer film. A case includes a first shielding part and a second shielding part that sandwich optical paths between a first mirror and a second mirror and extend to the vicinity of a cross point where the optical paths intersect. The tip end of the first shielding part is located in front of the tip end of the second shielding part. A display is arranged below the second shielding part and in front of a line that connects the tip end of the first shielding part and the tip end of the second shielding part. The first and second shielding parts block external light entering from above an opening and block external light that may enter the case and travel toward the first mirror after reflecting from the second mirror.

Vehicle interior equipment that includes a structure having a window surrounded by an edge area, and an electronic display screen placed in the window. In a standby condition of the screen, the screen displays a decorative image coordinated with the decoration of the edge area so that at least the peripheral area of the screen and the edge area coincide visually.

A coated substrate, including a transparent substrate provided with a p-polarized light reflective coating. The p-polarized light reflective coating contains, in sequence starting from a substrate surface, optionally a first coating containing one or more layers of a high refractive index material, optionally a second coating containing one or more layers of a low refractive index material, a third coating containing one or more layers of a high refractive index material, a fourth coating containing one or more layers of a low refractive index material, and further including at least one first layer of absorbent material.

A vehicle display device comprises: a housing forming an opening to an interior; a first display module positioned in the interior of the housing, the display module including a first louver film that is stacked with a second louver film, wherein respective orientations of the first and second louver films are substantially perpendicular to each other; and a cover glass that covers the opening to the interior of the housing, the cover glass being free floating and having an exposed glass edge; wherein the vehicle display device has a shroud-less design and is configured for positioning within a distance from a vehicle window where the display module is susceptible to generating a reflection in the vehicle window, and wherein at least one of the first and second louver films reduce the reflection.

A refractive optical system is disposed in an optical path from a display surface to a viewing area and between a projection optical system and the viewing area. A housing receives a display device, the projection optical system, and the refractive optical system, and is provided with an opening. An opening cover has at least partially a curved portion, and is disposed in the opening so that light emitted from the display surface is incident on a convex side of the curved portion. When a light beam that is emitted from a center of the display surface and reaches a center of the viewing area is referred to as a reference light beam, a head-up display satisfies the following condition (1):
L2L1(1) where L1 is a distance from an end on the anterior side of the observer of the refractive optical system to the opening cover, and L2 is a distance from a position at which the reference light beam passes through the refractive optical system to the opening cover.

A display device has a display portion and a polarizing plate, the polarizing plate being provided on a viewing side of the display portion and having a transmission axis in a vertical direction with respect to the display portion, wherein at least one tilt orientation phase difference film is provided on a viewing side of the polarizing plate, and the tilt orientation phase difference film has such an arrangement structure that does not cause a phase difference for light emitted upward in the vertical direction, and causes a phase difference for light emitted in a lateral direction perpendicular to the vertical direction.

A head-up display device for a vehicle may include: a light source part configured to generate light; a lens part configured to concentrate the light irradiated from the light source part; a film part configured to make a scattering angle of the light different in horizontal and vertical directions, the light having passed through the lens part; and an image generation part configured to generate image information using the light having passed through the film part.

An optical scanning device includes: a light source unit configured to emit a light beam; a light deflecting unit configured to two-dimensionally deflect the light beam in a main scanning direction and a sub-scanning direction orthogonal to the main scanning direction; and an image formation unit configured to form an image by two-dimensional scanning of the light beam performed by the light deflecting unit, in which a flat plate configured to transmit light incident on the light deflecting unit and deflected reflection light from the light deflecting unit is arranged in an optical path of the light beam between the light deflecting unit and the image formation unit, and the flat plate is inclined with respect to the image formation unit in a cross section in the sub-scanning direction.

A display input device includes a display panel, a knob member that protrudes forward from a display surface of the display panel and is formed of a transparent material, and a film-shaped louver film member that i) is provided between the display surface and the knob member, and ii) includes a plurality of first louvers extending in a first direction and a plurality of second louvers extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction and provided to intersect the plurality of first louvers, in which the louver film member suppresses light traveling toward an outer periphery of the knob member.
