Method and System for Displaying Driving Modes of a Vehicle
The invention relates to a method for displaying driving modes of a vehicle (6). The vehicle (6) can be operated in at least two different driving modes. In the method according to the invention, it is ascertained whether the vehicle (6) is being operated in a first or a second driving mode. In the first driving mode, a first actuator carries out a first action, and in the second driving mode, a second actuator carries out the first action. A first graphical element (7) which represents the first actuator and a second graphical element (8) which represents the second actuator are generated on a display surface (3). Depending on whether the vehicle (6) is in the first or the second driving mode, a first graphical action element (9, 10) which represents the first action is generated with the first (7) and/or second graphical element (8). The invention further relates to a system (1) for displaying driving modes of a vehicle (6).
System and method for autonomous vehicle control based on monitoring driver state
Provided is a system and method for controlling a vehicle. The vehicle control system includes an input unit configured to collect driving situation data and driver's state data, a memory configured to store a program for determining a driving pattern using the driving situation data and the driver's state data in the case of an autonomous driving mode, and a processor configured to execute the program. The processor learns the driving situation data and the driver's state data to determine a driver's preferred driving pattern and transmit an autonomous driving control command according to the driving pattern.
TRAVEL CONTROL APPARATUS AND TRAVEL CONTROL METHOD
A travel control apparatus for a work vehicle includes a display and circuitry. The display is to display a position of the work vehicle. The circuitry is configured to display in the display a guide index via which the work vehicle is manually guided to an automatic-travel permitted area in which the work vehicle is configured to automatically travel, and to determine whether or not the work vehicle is located in the automatic-travel permitted area.
HVAC SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING ZONED INTERIOR TEMPERATURES OF A VEHICLE INCLUDING DISPLAY OF THERMOGRAPHIC ANTHROPOMORPHIC FIGURES
A heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system is provided that includes a memory and a control module. The memory stores settings. The settings are for interior temperatures of a vehicle, a temperature of a steering wheel, and temperatures of seats within the vehicle. The control module: collects data from one or more cameras, where the data corresponds to one or more captured images of an interior cabin of the vehicle; based on the data, displays a thermographic anthropomorphic figure on a display of the vehicle or a mobile device, where the thermographic anthropomorphic figure is a thermogram representative of temperatures of an occupant of the vehicle; receives via a user interface an input from a user to adjust one of the settings; and based on the input from the user, adjusts operation of a first controlled device to change at least one of the temperatures of the occupant.
Heads Up Display, Heads Up Display Method, and Traveling Apparatus
The present disclosure provides a heads up display, comprising: a projector, which is configured to project light to a preset region to form a projected image; an environment color acquisition device, which is configured to acquire an environment color of a background region corresponding to the preset region, wherein the background region is an external region observable through the preset region from an observer's position; and a controller, comprising a color control unit, the color control unit being configured to control a color of light projected by the projector according to the environment color, such that a color of the projected image and the environment color are distinguished from each other. Accordingly, the present disclosure further provides a heads up display method and a traveling apparatus. The present disclosure can enable a driver to always see displayed image clearly in various environments.
DISPLAY DEVICE
A display apparatus includes: a variable compression ratio mechanism which is capable of modifying an engine compression ratio of an internal combustion engine and a display displaying a state of a present engine compression ratio. For example, when a driving at an engine compression ratio with a good fuel economy is carried out, a display switching is not unnecessarily carried out even under a vehicular acceleration and the display can cause a driver to be recognized that the driving is carried out in a good fuel economy state. On the other hand, when the driving state is switched from the driving state of good fuel economy to that of a bad fuel economy due to an abrupt depression of an accelerator pedal, the display of the engine compression ratio is accordingly varied.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING TRAVEL INFORMATION
An electronic device and a method are described. The electronic device is adapted to be installed on a handlebar of a vehicle, the electronic device comprising: a processor; a communication module; a display comprising a halo-shaped display; a memory for storing therein executable instructions, the instructions upon being processed by the processor, causing the electronic device to: receive, via the communication module, navigational data from a mobile device, the navigational data being associated with a circular visual signal indication, the circular visual signal indication being indicative of at least one of (i) an upcoming directional instruction and (ii) a distance between a current location and an upcoming location associated with the upcoming directional instruction; and, cause to display, on the halo-shaped display, of the circular visual signal indication.
Vehicle and control method thereof
The vehicle includes a display, a dial input device configured to receive a first input from a user, and a controller configured to control the display based on the first input, wherein the controller is configured to control the display to display a plurality of characters, a first indicator indicating one character among the plurality of characters, and a second indicator indicating at least one character not indicated by the first indicator among the plurality of characters, controls the display to change the characters indicated by the first indicator and the second indicator based on the first input, and determines the character indicated by the first indicator as the character selected by the user based on the second input.
Information display device
An information display device includes a display unit configured to display information about an object such that the information about the object at least partially overlaps with forward view of a user, and a controller configured to control display of the display unit. The controller is configured to estimate or acquire a prospective moving direction of the object, acquire a sight-line frequency representing a frequency with which a sight-line of the user is directed to the object within a prescribed period, determine whether the sight-line frequency is equal to or more than a prescribed frequency threshold, and cause the display unit to display the prospective moving direction of the object at least on condition that the controller determines that the sight-line frequency is less than the frequency threshold.
REMOTE ASSISTANCE APPARATUS, REMOTE ASSISTANCE SYSTEM, PROGRAM, AND REMOTE ASSISTANCE METHOD
A remote assistance device includes an obtainer, a display, a control information generator, and a display controller. The obtainer receives image information from a target vehicle that is remotely operated. The image information includes an image produced by capturing a surround view of the target vehicle. The display shows the image derived by the obtainer, to a remote driver. The control information generator cyclically produces control information including a controlled variable which is created by an operation input from the remote driver to control a given operation of the target vehicle. The control information generator transmits the control information to the target vehicle. The display controller works to control an operation of the display to overlay an auxiliary image on the image on the display. The auxiliary image includes at least a measure of the controlled variable provided when the image was captured in the target vehicle and is used for assisting the remote driver in remotely maneuvering the target vehicle.
