A vehicle driver assistance apparatus in a vehicle, the apparatus including a display; a vehicle information acquisition unit configured to acquire vehicle information of another vehicle which is driving or standing in a vicinity thereof; a wireless communication unit configured to wirelessly communicate with the other vehicle; and a processor configured to display information on the display corresponding to at least one service related to the acquired vehicle information, the at least one service being authorized by the other vehicle to be accessed by the vehicle, and execute the at least one service in response to a selection of the information on the display.

A method for operating a driver information system in an ego vehicle is provided, in which a current speed of the ego vehicle and a set parameter of an at least partially automated longitudinal guidance function of a driver assist system are acquired. A driver information display is generated and output, wherein the driver information display comprises a graphic lane object which represents a roadway in front of the ego vehicle. In doing so, a distance scale object and a distance indicator object are arranged in the lane object and are generated depending on the current speed of the ego vehicle. The distance scale object is generated so that positions of the lane object are assigned to distances from the ego vehicle, and the distance indicator object is arranged on the distance scale object such that the set parameter is output.

A method for displaying in a transportation vehicle braking operations of transportation vehicles driving ahead wherein the transportation vehicles driving ahead are detected; data are collected on the acceleration of the transportation vehicles driving ahead; and, from the data on the acceleration, first transportation vehicles driving ahead with a first acceleration are determined, the first acceleration being a negative acceleration, the magnitude of which is greater than or equal to a specified threshold value. On a display area, first graphical objects are generated, each first transportation vehicle driving ahead being assigned a first graphical object which indicates that the first transportation vehicle driving ahead assigned to the first graphical object has the first acceleration. Also disclosed is a device for displaying accelerations of transportation vehicles driving ahead in a transportation vehicle.

A vehicle heads-up display (HUD) includes a smart phone or tablet computer with at least one processor running at least one computer program adapted to enable the HUD to: (i) establish a connection to an on board unit (OBU) of the vehicle using the mechanisms provided by ICMPv6 for IPv6 router discovery, and acquire an IPv6 address through the mechanism of Stateless address auto configuration (SLAAC); (ii) process an authentication challenge from a Roadway Authorization Server (RAS); and (iii) respond to an authentication challenge from said Roadway Authorization Server (RAS).

If a first sign information detector 62 is normal, a first display 94 displays sign information detected by the first sign information detector 62, in accordance with an instruction from a control circuit 70. At this time, a second display 64 hides sign information in accordance with an instruction from the control circuit 70. On the other hand, if the first sign information detector 62 is abnormal, the first display 94 hides the sign information in accordance with an instruction from the control circuit 70. At this time, the second display 64 displays sign information detected by the second sign information detector 64, in accordance with an instruction from the control circuit 70.

Technologies for motion-compensated virtual reality include a virtual reality compute device of a vehicle. The virtual reality compute device is configured to render a virtual reality content to an occupant of the vehicle and determine a motion of the vehicle based at least on sensor data generated by one or more vehicle motion sensors of the vehicle. Based on the determined motion of the vehicle, the virtual reality compute device modifies the rendered virtual reality media. In some embodiments, the virtual reality compute device may utilize other sensors associated with the vehicle and/or a user-worn virtual reality device to predict the motion of the vehicle in order to determine an expected motion of the vehicle that is expected to be sensed in the future.

A traffic information providing device according to an embodiment includes: a communication unit that receives driving information from a plurality of vehicles; and a controller that detects vehicles having danger of a collision at an intersection area from the plurality of vehicles on the basis of the received driving information, creates traffic information for the detected vehicles having danger of a collision to avoid a collision of the vehicles having danger of a collision, and controls the communication unit to transmit the created traffic information to the vehicles having danger of a collision before entering the intersection area.

A method for providing media content adapted to the movement of a vehicle involves detecting current driving dynamic information of a first vehicle, estimating future driving dynamic information of at least the first vehicle, and transmitting the current and future driving dynamic information and camera images recorded by a vehicle camera to a central computing unit. The current and/or future driving dynamic information and the camera images are provided for outputting purposes in a third-party device or driving dynamic information of at least one second vehicle corresponding at least to the current and/or the future driving dynamic information of the first vehicle is identified. The current and/or future driving dynamic information and the camera images of at least the second vehicle to the first vehicle and at least the camera images of the second vehicle are output on at least one display device of the first vehicle.

The disclosure includes a system and method for wireless data sharing between a mobile client device and a three-dimensional heads-up display unit. A system may include a three-dimensional heads-up display unit (3D HUD) installed in a vehicle. The system may include a memory storing instructions that, when executed, cause the system to: establish a peer-to-peer video stream between a mobile client device and the vehicle; generate live video data for providing a video stream for causing a screen of the mobile client device to display visual content of the 3D HUD that includes substantially live images depicting what the driver of the vehicle sees when looking at the 3D HUD; and stream the live video data to the mobile client device to cause the screen of the mobile client device to display the video stream that depicts what the driver of the vehicle sees when looking at the 3D HUD.

A driver nudge system is operated within a vehicle to indicate a warning to a driver of the vehicle. The system includes a steering wheel, a vehicle sensor monitoring an operating environment of the vehicle, and an electric motor connected to the steering wheel configured to nudge the steering wheel in an opposite direction to a threat diagnosed according to data from the vehicle sensor.
