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 navigation system for a motor vehicle is provided. The navigation system comprises: a display interface located in the vehicle and configured to display a position of the vehicle; and a processor in communication with a vehicle sensor and a server and configured to receive vehicle-related information. The processor is configured to display the related information on the display interface in real time following the vehicle position when the related information belongs to a first preset category. A display method of a navigation map is also provided. The navigation system and the display method provided in the present application can help users obtain auxiliary information needed to drive on the current route from the navigation interface more conveniently in the process of using the navigation map, and thus provide a better driving experience to users.

The in-car equipment is disposed in the car. The piezoelectric device is disposed on the in-car equipment. The piezoelectric device is electrically connected to the processor. The piezoelectric device is configured to receive the electrical signal and generate a vibration to the in-car equipment in accordance with the electrical signal.

A vehicle display device includes a light emitting device having a light emitting portion that is linear and that is provided at a front side of a vehicle cabin such that direct light that is emitted can be seen by a driver. The light emitting portion is disposed at a height position that is configured to be further toward a lower side than a visual field of the driver in a case in which the driver drives while looking straight ahead.

An electronic device attachable to a vehicle, according to various embodiments of the present invention, comprises: a communication interface; a memory for storing instructions; and at least one processor connected to the communication interface and the memory, wherein the at least one processor can be configured so as to execute the stored instructions in order to: acquire, from another device embedded in the vehicle, information on a plurality of objects located within a designated distance from the vehicle; identify, among the plurality of objects, a designated object located within a designated distance from the vehicle; generate configuration information of at least one piece of content to be displayed through a head-up display (HUD), on the basis of a state of the designated object; and display, through the HUD, content for guiding the operation of the vehicle, on the basis of the generated configuration information.

A display control device includes a display that is configured to display information, a detector that is configured to detect a partition line for partitioning a lane on a road on which a vehicle is present, and a display controller that is configured to cause the display to display the partition line detected by the detector variably, and the display controller is configured to change a length of the partition line which is displayed by the display on the basis of a detection distance of the detector.

The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for providing cluster information using a three-dimensional (3D) image. The apparatus for providing the cluster information using the 3D image according to the present invention includes an input unit configured to receive display mode setting information and driving information, a memory configured to store a cluster information providing program that uses a 3D image, and a processor configured to execute the cluster information providing program, wherein the processor controls a light source disposed in a cluster according to the display mode setting information to display the driving information.

The present disclosure facilitates providing a display control apparatus, a display control system, and a display control method. The display control apparatus includes: a first OS that controls execution of a first application for generating a first display image displayed on a first display apparatus mounted on a vehicle; a second OS that controls execution of a second application for generating a second display image displayed on a second display apparatus mounted on the vehicle; and a hypervisor that is executed on a processor and controls execution of the first OS and the second OS.

A traffic congestion determination unit is configured to determine whether a traffic congestion occurs in an automatic travel period in which the vehicle travels by an automatic driving function. A cut-in prediction unit is configured to detect a sign of cut-in of an adjacent vehicle, which is adjacent to a subject vehicle as the vehicle, on determination by the traffic congestion determination unit that a traffic congestion occurs. A provision restricting unit is configured to restrict display of content provided in the automatic travel period on detection of a sign of cut-in of the adjacent vehicle by the cut-in prediction unit.
