The visibility of the external scene from the inside of the transmissive transparent screen when the video image is not displayed and the visibility of the video image from the outside when the video image is displayed are satisfied. In a video image display system comprising a projection device 100 and a transmissive transparent screen 1 having a first surface and a second surface on the opposite side of the first surface, having a visible light transmittance of at least 5[%], and displaying video images projected from the projection device 100 installed on the first surface side, as video images visible to an observer on the second surface side, the following formula 1 is satisfied:
?1.5?ln(((B/A)/I)?G)?3.9Formula 1 in the formula 1, A is the projection area [m.sup.2] of the projection device 100, B is the luminous flux [lm] projected onto A by the projection device 100, I is the ambient illuminance [lx] at the side of the second surface, and G is the screen gain of the transparent screen 1.

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for controlling a multi-image display provided in a vehicle, and a method thereof. According to the present disclosure, a multi-image display device may simultaneously output two or more images separated depending on an output angle or an optical frequency, and a first reflection member provided in an indoor ceiling of the vehicle may reflect one image among the two or more images output from the multi-image display device.

A housing that houses a display panel includes a first wall and a second wall. A protrusion is formed on the first wall. A through hole is formed in the second wall. The protrusion passes through the through hole. A tip of the protrusion that has been passed through the through hole is expanded to fasten the first wall to the second wall. A clearance between the protrusion and the through hole is divided into a first part and a second part. The first and second parts are unequally allocated so that when a force from a front side to a back side of the display panel is applied to the first wall/second wall, the first wall/second wall is suppressed from being displaced relative to the second wall/first wall.

A virtual 3D display for a motor vehicle includes a substrate and a flexible display positioned on the substrate. The flexible display is rollable and bendable within a cabin of the motor vehicle.

A press-contact guide, a restraining guide, and a latching mechanism are provided between a housing of a device body and a cover. A restraining projection provided on the cover is inserted into an introduction opening to cause a press-contact projection to be pressed into contact with a press-contact slide part. In this state, the cover is slid in a latching-force-acting direction. Then, the cover moves with a restraining projection being restrained by the restraining guide and cause a projecting latch to latch into a receiving hole. When such a latched state is established, the cover and the housing go out of contact with each other at the press-contact guide and the restraining guide.

Disclosed is a convenience equipment pull-out device for a vehicle. The convenience equipment pull-out device includes: a housing mounted on a headliner of the vehicle, a body which is mounted on the housing and coupled to a movable driving portion and to a plurality of movement guides. In particular, the body slides along the movement guides when the driving portion is driven. The device further includes a pull-out portion rotatably coupled to the body and selectively pulled out towards the interior of the vehicle while a hinge region connected to the body slides along a guide rail member of the housing.

The techniques of this disclosure relate to a vehicle occupancy-monitoring system. The system includes a controller circuit that receives occupant data from an occupancy-monitoring sensor of a vehicle. The controller circuit determines an occupancy status of respective seats in a cabin of the vehicle based on the occupancy-monitoring sensor. The controller circuit indicates the occupancy status of the respective seats on a display located in a field of view of occupants of the vehicle. The display is integral to one of a roof light module, a door panel, or a headliner of the cabin. The system can improve passenger safety by alerting the operator and other occupants about the occupancy status of the passengers.

A capacitive sensor and switch assembly is provided. The assembly includes a first electrode forming a decorative conductive component on a vehicle, and a second electrode dielectrically isolated from the first electrode and electrically coupled therewith to generate an activation field. The assembly also includes a dielectric layer disposed between the first and second electrodes, and a controller for processing a signal generated from the activation field and sensing an object, wherein the controller determines activation of a switch based on the signal generated from the activation field.

For a vehicle interior compartment defined by a vehicle floor, opposing sidewalls, a forward end and a rearward end, and a vehicle ceiling covering at least part of the compartment, an end zone overhead display structure includes bulkhead forming attachment elements coupled to a roof strut spanning from sidewall to sidewall of the vehicle roof. The display structure includes an open box-like upper bracket and an open box-like lower bracket coupled together with the roof strut interposed to provide an assembly that reduces unwanted motion, rotation or vibration of the display assembly.

A vehicle console includes a trim ring disposed over a periphery of a housing. The trim ring includes a polymeric material and is electrically conductive and grounded. A proximity switch assembly is retained in the housing. The proximity switch assembly includes a proximity sensor proximate a sensing pad for generating an activation field. The sensing pad is proximate the trim ring.
