A configuration of selecting content corresponding to the driving situation of a driver and presenting the content to the driver, thereby enabling improvement of the safe driving consciousness of the driver, can be implemented. The configuration includes a situation data acquisition unit that acquires automobile driving situation data, an output content determination unit that determines output content on the basis of the situation data, and a content output unit that outputs the output content determined by the output content determination unit. The output content determination unit determines, as the output content, content including the details of a situation that matches or that is similar to the situation data. The output content determination unit determines, as the output content, content including the details of a risk or an accident in a situation that matches or that is similar to the situation data.

An image display system includes a first processor, a second processor, and a comparator. The first processor acquires a behavior estimation result of a vehicle, and generates future position information after a predetermined time passes of the vehicle based on the behavior estimation result. The second processor acquires present information about the vehicle, and generates present position information on the vehicle and a peripheral object based on the acquired information. The comparator compares the future position information on the vehicle and the present position information on the vehicle and the peripheral object, and generates present image data indicating present positions of the vehicle and the peripheral object and future image data indicating future positions of the vehicle and the peripheral object. Further, the comparator allows a notification device to display a present image based on the present image data and a future image based on the future image data together.

A display control device includes a display that is configured to display information, a detector that is configured to detect a partition line for partitioning a lane on a road on which a vehicle is present, and a display controller that is configured to cause the display to display the partition line detected by the detector variably, and the display controller is configured to change a length of the partition line which is displayed by the display on the basis of a detection distance of the detector.

A driver assistance system includes a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to receive global positioning system (GPS) data from a GPS receiver, and receive image data from at least one camera. The image data includes images of an environment external to the vehicle. The instructions further cause the processor to receive sensor data from a plurality of sensors, determine a visual alert to display to a driver of the vehicle based at least in part on one or more of the GPS data, the image data, and the sensor data, determine a display position for the visual alert; and output the visual alert and the display position to a driver-wearable see-through augmented reality device.

A vehicle display device includes a display control unit that is configured to: display markers in positions, on a display unit, corresponding to future positions of a host vehicle which are acquired from an autonomous driving control unit that autonomously drives the host vehicle, and move display positions of the markers on the display unit in accordance with travel of the host vehicle and toward a reference position on the display unit corresponding to the host vehicle.

A vehicle control system includes a vehicle, an information terminal apparatus that can provide, on a display unit, a plurality of contents which provide training on an operation method of the vehicle, and a server that can communicate with the vehicle and the information terminal apparatus. The information terminal apparatus includes a display control unit configured to cause the display unit to display a first content that provides training on an operation method including a method to start an operation of a specific function of the vehicle and a second content that provides, to a user of the vehicle who has been trained by the first content and is registered in the server, training on an operation method corresponding to a phenomenon that can occur while the specific function is provided.

A method for computing a display of additional information for display on a display unit. The insertion of additional information supports the driver in the longitudinal guidance of a transportation vehicle. The insertion of the additional information takes place as an augmented reality display, so that the additional information is computed contact-analogously to one or more objects in the environment of the transportation vehicle. The position of a transportation vehicle traveling in front is detected. When the observer transportation vehicle is approaching the transportation vehicle in front, an animated graphic is displayed section by section in a periodically recurring manner starting from the observer transportation vehicle.

A computing system for a vehicle includes one or more processors for controlling operation of the computing system, and a memory for storing data and program instructions usable by the one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to process sensor information to determine a condition of a portion of a ground surface adjacent at least one door opening of the vehicle, and to control an operation of the vehicle responsive to the condition of the portion of the ground surface adjacent the at least one door opening of the vehicle.

A vehicle information display system includes: a master-side instrument including a first power transmission coil, a first signal transmission coil, and a first case; and a meter instrument including a display unit, a second power transmission coil, a second signal transmission coil, and a second case. The master-side instrument and the meter instrument have a positional relation such that in a state in which a fitting recessed part of the first case and the second case are fitted to each other, the first power transmission coil is opposed to the second power transmission coil, and the first signal transmission coil is opposed to the second signal transmission coil.

It is aimed to provide a projection system for projecting signal data on a windscreen or side screens of a motor vehicle cabin. The system comprises a light source arranged for emitting a beam and a housing, to be configured at an elevated position in the cabin. The housing comprising a digital mirror device, the digital mirror device arranged pattern the beam of the light source to project an image on at least a front and side window portion of the cabin. Part of the housing is shaped with a reflective surface that is optically inverse to the cabin window geometry, so that, when the digital mirror device projects a single image on the optical surface, it is imaged on the windscreen and at least one of side windows.
