A head-up display system includes: an object generation unit configured to generate an object for supporting driving and adjust a display state of the object in such a manner as to adapt to a place at which driving support is required based on information on the place; and a display control unit configured to display the object on a windshield in such a manner that the object is superimposed on a real space visible across the windshield.

VIRTUAL IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE
20200269696 · 2020-08-27 ·

A virtual image display device that displays a virtual image by projecting a display light image to a projection area of a vehicle, includes: a low-frequency information acquisition portion that acquires attitude change information of the vehicle at a low-frequency band; a high-frequency information acquisition portion that acquires attitude change information of the vehicle at a high-frequency band; an image renderer that renders image data of the display light image corrected to reduce misalignment attributed to the attitude change at the low-frequency band; a projection optical unit that includes a display surface to display an original image based on the image data, and projects light of the original image as the display light image; and a display controller that displaces the original image to reduce the misalignment of the virtual image attributed to the attitude change at the high-frequency band.

DISPLAY INTEGRATED INTO DOOR
20200269695 · 2020-08-27 ·

Disclosed embodiments include power machines having doors with a display that allows the display of information, such as gauges, user inputs, mapped obstacles, boundaries, etc., allowing the operator of the machine to see the displayed information closer to the line of sight with the work area.

Vehicle display apparatus
10754153 · 2020-08-25 · ·

A vehicle display apparatus includes an HUD that projects a display image formed at a first conjugate position to a projection member so as to place the display image as a virtual image at a second conjugate position. The first conjugate position is conjugate to a viewing region inside a vehicle through the projection member, and the second conjugate position is conjugate with an external sensor through the projection member. An HCU increases display luminance of a selected image selected from the display image to a fail-safe luminance by controlling a virtual image display state of the display image when a fail condition is met. The fail condition is that the current brightness detected by the external sensor exceeds an upper limit of an allowable range.

WORK VEHICLE AND DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD
20200263395 · 2020-08-20 · ·

A work vehicle includes: a display device provided in a cab and configured to display work assistance information to be overlaid on an actual view of a work site; a bucket position detector configured to detect a position of a bucket; and a display controller configured to control a content to be displayed on the display device and configured to cause the work assistance information to be displayed around the bucket while causing the work assistance information to follow the movement of the bucket based on the detected position. When work assistance information becomes close to a boundary of a display area of the display device due to the movement of the bucket, the display controller is configured to cause the work assistance information to be displayed on the display device with a relative position between the work assistance information and the bucket in the display area being changed.

IMMERSIVE VIRTUAL DISPLAY

A VR system for vehicles that may implement methods that address problems with vehicles in motion that may result in motion sickness for passengers. The VR system may provide virtual views that match visual cues with the physical motions that a passenger experiences. The VR system may provide immersive VR experiences by replacing the view of the real world with virtual environments. Active vehicle systems and/or vehicle control systems may be integrated with the VR system to provide physical effects with the virtual experiences. The virtual environments may be altered to accommodate a passenger upon determining that the passenger is prone to or is exhibiting signs of motion sickness.

AUGMENTED REALITY DISPLAY SYSTEM
20200258480 · 2020-08-13 · ·

An augmented reality display system included in a vehicle generates an augmented reality display, on one or more transparent surfaces of the vehicle. The augmented reality display can include an indicator of the vehicle speed which is spatially positioned according to the speed of the vehicle relative to the local speed limit. The augmented reality display can include display elements which conform to environmental objects and can obscure and replace content displayed on the objects. The augmented reality display can include display elements which indicate a position of environmental objects which are obscured from direct perception through the transparent surface. The augmented reality display can include display elements which simulate one or more particular environmental objects in the environment, based on monitoring manual driving performance of the vehicle by a driver. The augmented reality display can include display elements which identify environmental objects and particular zones in the environment.

Cognitive situation-aware vision deficiency remediation

Embodiments include methods, systems, and computer program products for remediating a color vision deficiency. Aspects include receiving a user profile. Aspects also include receiving a real time location image including a plurality of objects. Aspects also include determining an image context. Aspects also include generating a situational notification based at least in part upon the user profile, the real time location image, and the image context.

PASSIVE INFRA-RED GUIDANCE SYSTEM
20200249681 · 2020-08-06 ·

A passive infra-red guidance system and method for augmenting operation of a vehicle on a roadway includes at least one forward-looking infra-red imaging sensor mounted on the vehicle in operative communication with an image processor tied into the vehicle's operational system. The system identifies the presence of one or more melting agents arranged on the roadway using thermal imaging to detect a thermal contrast between the portion(s) of the roadway surface treated with the one or more melting agents and the untreated portion(s) of the roadway surface, and then determines the centerline of the travel lane in which the vehicle is travelling based on the identified melting agent(s). The system then compares the determined centerline of the travel lane with the actual position of the vehicle and identifies any adjustment needed for the vehicle's position based on the comparison.
