VEHICULAR DISPLAY DEVICE AND DISPLAY METHOD
There are provided: a vehicle display device including a HUD device capable of ensuring safe traveling by suitably controlling a display region of an image to be displayed on the windshield of a vehicle; and a display method. A vehicle display device includes a HUD device that projects image light of an image, which is to be displayed, on a windshield WS of a vehicle such that a virtual image I* of the image is visually recognized by reflected light. The vehicle display device is operable to display a plurality of images having a priority order, and an image having a high priority order is displayed such that an image displayed in a specified region As of the windshield WS has a predetermined display rate (=an area of the image/an area of the specified region) or less. Warning images I2 and I31 to I34 are set in a priority order higher than that of the driving support images I11 to I13.
Display controller, display device, display system, mobile object, image generation method, and carrier means
A display controller (20) includes an information acquisition unit configured to obtain input data of attentional resources of an occupant of a mobile object such as traveling time, occupant status information, driving environment information or display image history and a display-image generation unit configured to generate, in a mode determined based on the input data, a display image to be displayed by a display device (10) provided for the mobile object. The mobile object is for instance a vehicle comprising a head-up display.
Active noise control device comparing peak frequencies in impedance frequency characteristics
An active noise control device includes a control signal generating unit including a first adaptive filter configured to generate a control signal by performing a filtering process on a reference signal corresponding to noise, an identifying unit configured to identify a peak frequency in an impedance frequency characteristic of an actuator, a peak frequency storage unit configured to store an initial peak frequency of the actuator, a first determination unit configured to determine whether or not a difference between the peak frequency currently identified and the initial peak frequency is greater than or equal to a threshold value, and a control unit configured to change a characteristic of the control signal generated by the control signal generating unit when the first determination unit determines that the difference is greater than or equal to the threshold value.
Intelligent vehicle systems and control logic for surround view augmentation with object model recognition
Presented are intelligent vehicle systems with networked on-body vehicle cameras with camera-view augmentation capabilities, methods for making/using such systems, and vehicles equipped with such systems. A method for operating a motor vehicle includes a system controller receiving, from a network of vehicle-mounted cameras, camera image data containing a target object from a perspective of one or more cameras. The controller analyzes the camera image to identify characteristics of the target object and classify these characteristics to a corresponding model collection set associated with the type of target object. The controller then identifies a 3D object model assigned to the model collection set associated with the target object type. A new “virtual” image is generated by replacing the target object with the 3D object model positioned in a new orientation. The controller commands a resident vehicle system to execute a control operation using the new image.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING PAVING MACHINE PRODUCTIVITY
A paving machine includes a plurality of sensor(s) for generating sensor data associated with a paving operation. Criteria associated with paving mat defects are compared against the sensor data to determine whether the criteria is satisfied and whether paving mat defects are predicted. For example, criteria may include whether a hopper of the paving machine is activated, whether a screed assembly of the paving machine is floating, a speed of the paving machine, and whether heat is applied to the screed assembly. In instances where defects are predicted, notifications of such may be provided, or displayed, on a control interface of the paving machine.
Method and system for providing display redundancy on a machine
A method for providing display redundancy on a machine is provided. The machine includes a first display configured to perform a first set of functionalities associated with one or more operations of the machine and a second display configured to perform a second set of functionalities associated with the one or more operations of the machine, the second set of functionalities being different from the first set of functionalities. The method includes detecting, by a controller, failure of the first display. The method further includes executing, by the controller, at least a subset of the first set of functionalities on the second display along with at least a subset of the second set of functionalities, when the failure of the first display is detected.
Real-time driving behavior and safety monitoring
A system and method may track data from one or more sensors during vehicle driving. Based on the sensors data, one or more alerts or potential hazards may be identified. The system and method may generate a drive summary including information and optional statistics about the alerts or potential hazards.
Display device of vehicle on which CO.SUB.2 .recovery device is mounted
A display device of a vehicle on which a CO.sub.2 recovery device is mounted, the CO.sub.2 recovery device through which gas circulates recovering carbon dioxide from the gas, the display device includes: a controller configured to control the vehicle, the controller including a recovery state determination unit configured to determine a recovery amount or a recovery state of the carbon dioxide recovered by the CO.sub.2 recovery device and an image data creation unit configured to create image data corresponding to the recovery amount or the recovery state detected by the recovery state determination unit; and a display screen configured to receive the image data and display an image corresponding to the image data, wherein the image data and the image vary depending on the recovery amount or the recovery state.
Driver notification system
Methods and systems for notifying a driver of a first vehicle of obstacles discouraging passing of a second vehicle in front of the first vehicle. The system includes a sensor of the second vehicle configured to detect spatial data in proximity of the second vehicle. The system also includes an electronic control unit (ECU) of the first vehicle. The ECU is configured to receive the spatial data from a transceiver of the second vehicle. The ECU is also configured to determine obstacle data based on the spatial data, the obstacle data identifying a presence of obstacles ahead of the second vehicle discouraging passing of the second vehicle by the first vehicle. The ECU is also configured to provide a notification to the driver of the first vehicle when the obstacle data indicates the presence of obstacles ahead of the second vehicle.
GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FOR DISPLAY OF AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE BEHAVIORS
Techniques are disclosed for creating and presenting a graphical user interface for display of autonomous vehicle behaviors. The techniques include determining a trajectory of a vehicle operating in a real-world environment. Sensors of the vehicle obtain sensor data representing an object in the real-world environment. A maneuver of the vehicle to avoid a collision with the object is predicted based on the sensor data and the trajectory of the vehicle. It is determined that a passenger comfort level of a passenger riding in the vehicle will decrease based on the maneuver of the vehicle. The passenger comfort level is measured by passenger sensors of the vehicle. A graphical user interface is generated including representations of the vehicle, the object, and a graphic, text, or a symbol alerting the passenger of the predicted maneuver. The graphical user interface is transmitted to a display device of the vehicle.
