DISPLAY SYSTEM FOR WORK VEHICLE, AND METHOD FOR DISPLAYING WORK VEHICLE
This display system is provided with: an image acquisition unit for acquiring a captured image obtained by capturing an image around a work vehicle; a detection unit for detecting an obstacle around the work vehicle; and a display control unit which, on the basis of the result of detection of the obstacle, generates a signal for displaying a marker image in a position corresponding to the obstacle, and a signal for causing the form of the marker image to change over time.
Image processing apparatus, camera, moveable body, and image processing method
An image processing apparatus (10) includes an interface (12) configured to acquire a surrounding image of a moveable body (1) and a processor (12) configured to overlay a display indicating a course trajectory of a specific portion of the moveable body (1) in a travel direction of the moveable body (1) on the surrounding image at a position corresponding to the height of the specific portion from a road surface (3). The processor (12) is configured to change the display indicating the course trajectory when an obstacle, included in the surrounding image and present in the travel direction of the moveable body (1), and the course trajectory of the specific portion are in contact.
Actuated spinning sensor
Various embodiments of the present invention are directed towards a system and methods for generating three dimensional (3D) images with increased composite vertical field of view and composite resolution for a spinning three-dimensional sensor, based on actuating the sensor to generate a plurality of sensor axis orientations as a function of rotation of the actuator. The output data from the sensor, such as a spinning LIDAR, is transformable as a function of the actuator angle to generate three dimensional imagery.
Vehicular display apparatus and vehicular display method
A vehicular display apparatus that displays an image on a windshield of a vehicle has an attention target detector configured to detect an attention target to which attention of a driver of the vehicle needs to be drawn, and calculate a distance from the attention target to the vehicle, and a display controller configured to perform display control that displays an attention mark on the windshield in a superimposed manner such that, from a point of view of the driver, the attention mark is displayed close to the attention target detected by the attention target detector, the attention mark being displayed to draw the attention of the driver to the attention target. The display controller sets a base point at a position of the attention target on the windshield, sets a display position of the attention mark at a position which is a predetermined distance away from the base point.
Solution path overlay interfaces for autonomous vehicles
Methods and systems for controlling a vehicle are herein disclosed. A method includes receiving vehicle data and external data from a vehicle control system of a vehicle and generating an environment representation of an area of the transportation network proximate to the vehicle location. The method includes displaying the environment representation in a GUI and receiving a solution path via the graphical user interface, the solution path indicating a route and one or more stop points. The method includes transmitting the route to the vehicle including a respective geolocation of each of the one or more stop points. The vehicle receives the route and begins traversing the transportation network based on the solution path. The method includes receiving updated vehicle data and/or updated external data from the vehicle and updating the environment representation based thereon. The method includes displaying, the updated environment representation via the graphical user interface.
DISPLAY SYSTEM FOR WORK VEHICLE AND DISPLAY METHOD FOR WORK VEHICLE
An image acquisition unit acquires a captured image of surroundings of a work vehicle. A detection unit detects an obstacle around the work vehicle. A display control unit generates a signal for displaying an obstacle-identifying display at a position related to an obstacle having high detection accuracy among a plurality of obstacles detected in a region corresponding to the captured image when the plurality of obstacles is detected by the detection unit, the detection accuracy indicating a certainty of the obstacle.
Vehicle travel control device and vehicle travel control method for parking
A vehicle travel control method includes, when controlling a vehicle having an autonomous travel control function to travel autonomously, detecting whether or not an object is present around the vehicle and displaying a predetermined pattern corresponding to a detection range at a certain position on a road surface toward the detection range so that the predetermined pattern is visible.
Supplementing top-down predictions with image features
The described techniques relate to predicting object behavior based on top-down representations of an environment comprising top-down representations of image features in the environment. For example, a top-down representation may comprise a multi-channel image that includes semantic map information along with additional information for a target object and/or other objects in an environment. A top-down image feature representation may also be a multi-channel image that incorporates various tensors for different image features with channels of the multi-channel image, and may be generated directly from an input image. A prediction component can generate predictions of object behavior based at least in part on the top-down image feature representation, and in some cases, can generate predictions based on the top-down image feature representation together with the additional top-down representation.
SELF-DRIVING TRUCK WITH MIRRORS TO EXTEND A FIELD OF VIEW
An autonomous truck may have several blind spots. These blind spots can be regions outside the direct field of view (FOV) of on-board sensors e.g. Cameras, LIDARs or RADARs. A remote mirror can be attached to the tractor or trailer of the truck and augment the direct FOV of sensors by illuminating a blind spot with emitted light AND/OR providing light reflections from a blind spot. However, remote mirrors are prone to move as a truck moves (e.g. as a truck articulates while turning). Within embodiments, a computer can process sensor data to identify a current location of the remote mirror in the FOV of a sensor and thereby identify a portion of the sensor data as being deflected by the remote mirror. In other embodiments the remote mirror is repositioned as the vehicle moves to perform a specific task, for example parking or reversing.
IMAGING SYSTEM AND METHOD
An imaging system includes an image sensor and an image signal processor (ISP). The image sensor generates image data including a set of pixel values. The ISP defines a first subset of pixel values from the set of pixel values. The first subset of pixel values corresponds to at least one region of interest. The ISP defines a second subset of pixel values that is complementary to the first subset of pixel values. The ISP generates a first sub-image based on the second subset of pixel values. The ISP processes the first subset of pixel values to generate a second sub-image. Processing the first subset of pixel values includes at least one of changing a color of one or more pixel values from the first subset of pixel values and scaling the first subset of pixel values. The ISP merges the first and second sub-images to generate an output image.
