A vehicular vision system includes an A-pillar display device disposed at an interior A-pillar region of a vehicle, a blind spot camera, and a driver monitoring camera. The blind spot camera at least partially views an A-pillar blind spot region forward and sideward of the vehicle. An ECU receives image data captured by the blind spot camera. The A-pillar display device displays A-pillar blind spot video images derived from video image signals provided from the ECU. The ECU receives and processes image data captured by the driver monitoring camera to determine a gaze direction of the driver. Responsive to the determined gaze direction being toward the A-pillar blind spot region, the ECU provides video image signals derived from image data captured by the blind spot camera to the A-pillar display device. The A-pillar display device displays A-pillar blind spot video images derived from the received video image signals.

An interactive vehicle safety system having capabilities to improve peripheral vision, provide warning, and improve reaction time for operators of vehicles. For example, the interactive vehicle safety system may have capabilities for portraying objects, which are being blocked by any of the structural pillars and/or mirrors of a vehicle (such as a truck, van, train, etc.). The interactive vehicle safety system disclosed may comprise one or more image capturing devices (such as camera, sensor, laser), distance and object sensors (such as ultrasonic sensor, LIDAR radar sensor, photoelectric sensor, and infrared sensor), a real-time image processing of an object, and one or more display systems (such as LCD or LED displays). The interactive vehicle safety system may give a seamless 360-degree front panoramic view to a driver.

Provision of a sense of distance by motion parallax is easily realized. A display image is obtained by superimposing an image showing a vehicle on a captured image obtained by capturing an image on a rear side from the vehicle. For example, the image showing the vehicle is a computer graphics image. For example, a change is made in a superimposed positional relationship between the captured image and the image showing the vehicle in accordance with motion of a viewpoint of a driver. Since the display image is not only made from the captured image obtained by capturing an image on a rear side from the vehicle, but the display image is obtained by superimposing the image showing the vehicle on the captured image, it is possible to easily provide a sense of distance by motion parallax.

An image processing method for harmonizing images acquired by a first camera and a second camera connected to a vehicle and arranged in such a way as their fields of view cover a same road space at different times as the vehicle travels along a travel direction is disclosed. The method includes: acquiring by a selected camera, a first image at a first time; selecting a first region of interest bounding a road portion from the first image; sampling the first region of interest; acquiring by the other camera, a second image in such a way that the road portion is included in a second region of interest; sampling the second region of interest; and determining one or more correction parameters for harmonizing images acquired by the first and second cameras, based on a comparison between the image content of the first and second regions of interest.

A first object approaching a vehicle in a first direction and a second object approaching the vehicle in a second direction are detected. In response to detection of the first object and the second object, the first object is notified about the presence of the second object by using a notification device, and the second object is notified about the presence of the first object by using the notification device.

A method and a device for driver state evaluation are provided. In a detection step, in a sensor-aided manner, a driver's viewing direction in a field of view defined relative to the vehicle is detected and a solid angle oriented to the viewing direction is determined depending on at least one parameter that influences the field of view. In an evaluation step, at least one object point of the three-dimensional surroundings of the driver is evaluated on the basis of the latter's position with respect to the solid angle determined and an attentiveness-related driver state is ascertained depending on this evaluation and is output.

A display control system includes an infrastructure sensor information acquisition unit, a blind spot information generation unit, and a display control unit. The infrastructure sensor information acquisition unit acquires infrastructure sensor information, which is obtained when an infrastructure sensor provided around a road detects information around the vehicle on the road. The blind spot information generation unit generates, based on the infrastructure sensor information, blind spot information on a blind spot area that becomes a blind spot due to an obstacle when viewed from the vehicle. The display control unit control a display device such that the blind spot information is displayed on the vehicle.

Power machines and loaders having doors with an integrated display that allows the display of information, such as gauges, user inputs, mapped obstacles, boundaries, etc., that allows the operator of the machine to see the displayed information closer to the line of sight with the work area. The display can show augmented reality information about a worksite.

A warning system and a method for warning a driver of a vehicle of an object in a proximity of the vehicle. The system includes a device for detecting the object, a device for processing an image of the object based on the detection so that a representation indicative of the object is achieved, and a display for displaying the representation indicative of the object in the vehicle.

A display image is obtained by superimposing an image showing a vehicle on a captured image obtained by capturing an image on a rear side from the vehicle. For example, the image showing the vehicle is a computer graphics image. For example, a change is made in a superimposed positional relationship between the captured image and the image showing the vehicle in accordance with motion of a viewpoint of a driver. Since the display image is not only made from the captured image obtained by capturing an image on a rear side from the vehicle, but the display image is obtained by superimposing the image showing the vehicle on the captured image, it is possible to easily provide a sense of distance by motion parallax.
