A vehicle control device incorporating a plurality of vehicle control elements, at least one control apparatus to alter a functionality of the vehicle control elements, each of the vehicle control elements adapted in use to control a valve in a hydraulic line, in which each vehicle control element incorporates a vehicle control display element, the vehicle control display element indicating whether the functionality of the vehicle control element may be altered. This allows a driver when looking at the vehicle control element easily to see from the vehicle control display element whether the functionality of the vehicle control element may be changed.

A vehicle control device incorporating at least one vehicle control element and a vehicle terminal is disclosed, the at least one vehicle control element being adapted to control a functionality of a vehicle implement or tool, the vehicle terminal incorporating a terminal display, the terminal display being adapted to alter the functionality of the vehicle implement or tool associated with the vehicle control element, the terminal display also indicating the functionality associated with the vehicle control element, wherein the vehicle control element incorporates a vehicle control display element, the vehicle control display element indicating whether the functionality of the vehicle control element has been altered. This enables a driver when looking at the vehicle control element easily to see from the vehicle control display element whether the functionality of the vehicle control element has been altered.

A projection display device includes an image data control unit that controls image data to be input to a light modulation unit, and a situation determination unit that determines, in a state where an automated driving mode is set, whether or not a situation has occurred where an operation device mounted in a vehicle and used for driving needs to be operated. When it is determined that the situation has occurred where the operation device needs to be operated, the image data control unit inputs, to a driving unit, first image data for displaying images corresponding to a plurality of operation devices in a positional relationship corresponding to an arrangement of the plurality of operation devices and displaying, in an emphasized manner, the image corresponding to the operation device that needs to be operated, and displays an operation assisting image that is based on the first image data.

A meter ECU changes a display color of a meter display item without changing a luminance of a first backlight of a first display and a display color of a first lamp display item, between when an illuminance detected by an optical sensor is higher than a certain threshold value (step S2, step S3) and when the illuminance is lower than the certain threshold value (step S7, step S8).

An apparatus and a method for controlling a display of a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes: a detector to detect at least one background element on a head-up display and detect additional information and color information of the at least one detected background element, and a determination device. When the additional information of the detected background element is matched with the head-up display, the determination device compares color information of the a graphic user interface (GUI) corresponding to the additional information with the color information of the detected background element. And an image correcting device of the apparatus corrects a color of an element of the GUI based on a comparison result, and an output controller outputs a corrected GUI corresponding to the additional information and displays the corrected GUI on the head-up display.

An information providing apparatus in a vehicle coordinates with a first light emitter including light-emitting elements arranged in a linear form including at least one line on a compartment side of a door of the vehicle, and a second light emitter projecting light onto a projection target member in a forward visual field of a driver of the vehicle. The information providing apparatus repeatedly acquires status information including surroundings status indicating status of surroundings of the vehicle, and executes control to the first light emitter and second light emitter based on the status information. The control makes the first light emitter and second light emitter provide light emission in a light emission mode associated with acquired surroundings status indicated by the status information.

A vehicle information output control device includes a processor. The processor acquires direction information on a direction in which a lane change is possible by activation of a lane change assist system. Based on the direction information, the processor causes a display unit in a vehicle cabin to output a direction image indicating the direction in which the lane change is possible.

An assistance apparatus for a working vehicle includes a controller configured or programmed to control a plurality of functions relating to the working vehicle, a first function operation actuator to select a function among the plurality of functions, and a second function operation actuator to change a control parameter of the function selected via the first function operation actuator, and the second function operation actuator includes a dial switch to change the control parameter by being rotated.

A vehicle system includes a controller programmed to display a plurality of icons on a HUD of the vehicle, receive EEG data from a driver of the vehicle, perform a Fast Fourier Transform of the EEG data to obtain an EEG spectrum, input the EEG spectrum into a trained machine learning model, determine which of the plurality of icons the driver is viewing based on an output of the trained machine learning model, and perform one or more vehicle operations based on the output of the trained machine learning model.

A park assistance system for a motor vehicle is presented that has a distance sensor system for generating a sensor signal depending on a lateral distance to an object. A computing unit of the park assistance system generates graphics data based on the sensor signal, and contains an augmented reality system for superimposing a graphic element onto a field of view of a driver. An extension of the graphic element along a vertical axis depends on a value of the distance.
