Examples of the disclosure relate to example systems and methods for operating a see-through display for a vehicle. An example system includes a video camera positioned to capture video related to a vehicle structure that blocks a view of the driver. The system also includes a see-through display disposed inside the vehicle between the vehicle structure and the driver. The system also includes a processor configured to identify a closest object within a field of view of the video camera, determine a distance to the closest object, and process the captured video based, at least in part, on the distance to determine a portion of the captured video to be displayed on the see-through display. The processor renders the portion of the captured video to create a see-through effect relative to the vehicle structure.

A driving assistance device calculates the field of view of a driver based on an output signal of a camera that captures an image of the driver. The driving assistance device calculates a monitoring required region that requires monitoring when driving the vehicle based on information of the periphery of the vehicle. The driving assistance device determines whether the field of view calculated in the field of view calculation process encompasses the monitoring required region. When determined that the calculated field of view does not encompass the monitoring required region, the driving assistance operates predetermined hardware device to cope with the situation.

A bracket for a display assembly includes a body that has a first edge and a second edge that define a first surface and a second surface of the body. An elongated retention feature is coupled to the first edge of the body and defines an elongated slot proximate to the first surface of the body. A plurality of retention clips are coupled to the second edge of the body. Each of the plurality of retention clips define a slot proximate to the first surface of the body. At least one housing is coupled to the second surface of the body and defines locking apertures. At least one cap is selectively coupled to the at least one housing. The at least one cap defines locking features selectively disposed within the locking apertures that are defined by the at least one housing.

The present disclosure refers to a vehicle display retention system, comprising a display unit affixed to a display frame and connected to a grab bar, and an intermediate adapter coupled to the grab bar, characterized in that the intermediate adapter comprises a mounting arm for attachment to a vehicle at a first mounting member, a retention strap coupled to the mounting arm and the vehicle at the first mounting member, and an attachment component coupled to the intermediate adapter.

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.

A display apparatus projects an image of an object located in an area outside a mobile body onto a target projection surface, the target projection surface being set in a cabin of the mobile body and having a first region and a second region. The display apparatus includes: an image data acquisition unit that acquires image data; an image processing unit that generates projection image data by performing image conversion processing including color conversion in which the first wavelength light is selected for a pixel corresponding to the first region and the second wavelength light is selected for a pixel corresponding to the second region based on region distribution information; a light source unit that emits light selected from either the first wavelength light or the second wavelength light; and a projection unit that projects the image formed by the emitted light onto the target projection surface.

A method for operating a camera-monitor system for a motor vehicle, in which the camera-monitor system has a camera that is designed to provide an image of an environment of the motor vehicle and has a monitor for representing images from the camera comprises providing an image from the camera, ascertaining an attention-relevant object in the environment, temporarily changing at least one representation property of the image in dependence on the ascertained object to form a changed image, and representing the changed image on the monitor.

A low-profile, backlit panel assembly and a controller for displaying images and/or data within a passenger compartment of a vehicle are provided. The assembly includes a substrate panel perforated with a two-dimensional array of closely-spaced holes. The panel is configured to be attached to a support structure of the vehicle. The assembly further includes a plurality of semiconductor-based, lighting devices supported at a back surface of the panel. Each of the lighting devices includes at least one lighting element. Each of the lighting elements is individually addressable by the controller to control luminous intensity of the light emitted by the at least one lighting element. Each of the lighting devices is aligned with one of the holes so that light emitted by each of the lighting devices travels through its hole to the passenger compartment in the form of a pixel of a two-dimensional image.

A system for optically cloaking an object includes a photophoretic optical trap display including a trap light source and an illumination light source; and a visual sensor at a first visual sensor location. The visual sensor captures an image of a scene, the trap light source is configured to generate a trap beam to control one or more of a position and an orientation of a scattering particle, and the illumination light source is configured to generate an illumination beam to illuminate the scattering particle to generate a reproduction image based on the image of the scene captured by the visual sensor.

A display image to be displayed on a display unit is obtained in accordance with motion of a viewpoint of a driver, on the basis of a captured image obtained by capturing an image on a rear side from a vehicle, when a line-of-sight of the driver is in a certain region including the display unit. For example, the display image is obtained in accordance with a deviation of a viewpoint position of the driver from a reference viewpoint position. For example, the reference viewpoint position is updated on the basis of a long-term fluctuation of the viewpoint position. For example, the reference viewpoint position is not updated when a line-of-sight of the driver is in a certain region including a display unit that displays a display image.
