In an in-vehicle terminal device that is able to perform communication with a server device, an identification information acquisition unit acquires identification information of a user who boards a vehicle. A communication unit transmits the identification information of the user to the server device and receives arrangement information of a plurality of display elements corresponding to the identification information of the user transmitted from the server device. A setting unit decides an arrangement of the display elements of the in-vehicle display according to an arrangement criterion based on vehicle type information of the vehicle using the arrangement information of the display elements corresponding to the identification information of the user.

A method for providing a machine operator with an augmented reality view of an environment includes determining a location and orientation of a vehicle. An eye position and gaze of an operator of the vehicle are also determined. Job information to be displayed to the operator of the vehicle is determined based on the location of the vehicle and the orientation of the vehicle. The job information is displayed to the operator based on the eye position and gaze of the operator of the vehicle. In one embodiment, environmental features that can be seen through the windscreen are determined. The job information displayed to the operator is modified based on the environmental features.

A display device for a vehicle includes: a display, a polarization switching unit, a reflector, and a controller. The polarization switching unit includes a wave plate that can cause emission light of the display to be emitted while changing a polarization direction thereof, and a drive device that can rotate the wave plate between a position of not using polarizing sunglasses and a position of using polarizing sunglasses. The controller rotates the wave plate within a prescribed range, detects luminance values for each fixed rotation angle of the wave plate within a prescribed range from imaging information of an imaging device that transmits a principal component of transmitted light of the wave plate at a position of the eye box, and sets, as a correction angle, a rotation angle of the wave plate corresponding to a maximum luminance value among the luminance values.

A display control system includes an obtainer that obtains display device information on each of display devices, a calculator that calculates a correction value corresponding to each of the display devices, on the basis of the display device information, and a display that generates an image to be displayed across two or more display devices among the display devices. The display corrects the image to be displayed across the two or more display devices, on the basis of the correction value corresponding to each of the two or more display devices, and displays, across the two or more display devices, the image corrected.

Systems and methods for using image analysis techniques to facilitate adjustments to vehicle components are disclosed. According to aspects, a computing device may access and analyze image data depicting an individual(s) within a vehicle, and in particular determine a positioning of the individual(s) within the vehicle. Based on the positioning, the computing device may determine how to adjust a vehicle component(s) to its optimal configuration, and may facilitate adjustment of the vehicle component(s) accordingly.

A backlight unit for a vehicular component is disclosed. In particular, the vehicle component is for displaying vehicular information. The backlight unit comprises a screen divided into an array of segments and a transparent plate for directing light rays through the screen. Each segment of the array of segments is capable to operate between a mode for permitting light rays to pass through, allowing light rays passing through the transparent plate and the screen, and a mode for blocking light rays from passing through blocking light rays from passing through the screen.

The present disclosure relates to a transportation vehicle, a user interface, and a method for defining a tile on a displace device of a user interface. The method may include the following steps: displaying a tile grid comprising a number of cells on the display device in an operating mode; detecting a user gesture, in particular a swiping gesture, in contact with a touch-sensitive surface in relation to at least one cell; and, in response, defining a tile on the positions of those cells that have been dialed by the user gesture in a predefined manner.

A vehicle includes: a position-adjustable steering wheel, a position-adjustable driver's seat, a display extending on the dashboard from one side facing the driver's seat to another side in which a center fascia is disposed, at least one image sensor configured to capture a vehicle interior image to obtain the vehicle interior image, a storage configured to store driver's seat positioning information of the driver's seat and steering wheel positioning information of the steering wheel, and a controller configured to obtain eye position information indicating a position of each of eyes of the driver with respect to the steering wheel based on at least one of the driver's seat positioning information or the vehicle interior image, determine a covered area on the display, covered by the steering wheel, based on the eye position information and the steering wheel positioning information, and adjust an output position of an image output on the display based on the covered area.

A display device (100) for a vehicle includes: a plurality of display units (170, 180) which are mounted in the vehicle; an operation unit (110) that is configured to accept an operation of selecting content that is displayed on some or all of the plurality of display units; a determination unit (120) that determines a sitting position of a person who operates the operation unit; and a display control unit (130) that is configured to cause any one of the plurality of display units to display content on the basis of an operation that is accepted by the operation unit and a determination result of the determination unit. In a state in which content is displayed on any one of the plurality of display units, in a case where an operation of performing display of new content is accepted by the operation unit, the display control unit is configured to change a display aspect of the content that is already displayed on the basis of a determination result of the sitting position by the determination unit.

A vehicle display configuration system and method employs a display, an eye tracker and a controller. The eye tracker is configured to track eye movement of a user viewing the display. The controller is configured to control the display to sequentially display sets of a plurality of images for comparison and selection by the user, to receive selection information representing a respective selected image from each of the sets being displayed on the display as selected by the user, to analyze eye tracker eye movement information received from the eye tracker representing eye movement of the user while the user is viewing each of the sets being displayed on the display, and to designate a vehicle display image based on the selection information and a result of the analysis of the eye movement information.
