There is provided a display device for a vehicle, the display device including: a display unit that is visible to an occupant of a vehicle; a memory; and a processor that is connected to the memory, the processor changing a content image displayed on the display unit so as to be displayed in the same direction as a direction in which a travel path of the vehicle curves.

A vehicle communication system installed in a vehicle includes: a lamp for illumination, a display or signal; a display that is configured by a planar light emitter and has an information display function; and a control unit that is capable of controlling turning-on of the lamp and of the display. The control unit is configured to control the lamp and the display in a linked manner, and present vehicle information indicating a condition of the vehicle by combining light emission of the lamp with information display of the display.

A display assembly for a vehicle may include: a back cover constituting the body of the display assembly, and fixed to an instrument panel; an LCD module disposed at the front of the back cover; and a coupling member disposed between the back cover and the LCD module, and configured to couple the back cover and the LCD module to each other. The coupling member may be formed of a double-sided tape.

A vehicle function operation apparatus according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a matching table configured to display an icon for each of various in-vehicle functions for each area, and a position variable knob dial electrically linked when coming into contact with the matching table to project a widget for each detailed function of the corresponding icon positioned on a contact area with the matching table.

A system for controlling a vehicle display based on an occupant's gaze includes: a first occupant gaze recognition unit to recognize a gaze of a first occupant in a vehicle; a second occupant gaze recognition unit to recognize a gaze of a second occupant in the vehicle; an interest information display area crossover confirmation and priority determination unit to determine interest information from the gaze of the first occupant and the gaze of the second occupant, to confirm whether areas for displaying interest information on a windshield are mutually crossover with each other, and to determine a priority for display; and a display control unit to control a display in accordance with the priority for display.

Provided is a low-cost image display apparatus that has asymmetry in the display characteristics in the right-to-left direction, displays a clear image to the driver, exhibits an appropriate viewing angle control function that reduces reflected glare on the window glass, and is thinly made While causing no moire, and there are also provided an information display system for a vehicle, and an optical film. The image display apparatus includes a viewing-side polarizing plate, a liquid crystal cell, a backlight-side polarizing plate, an optical film, and a backlight in this order, in which the optical film includes an optically anisotropic layer and a polarizer in this order from the liquid crystal cell side, the absorption axis of the backlight-side polarizing plate and the absorption axis of the polarizer are parallel or orthogonal to each other, the optically anisotropic layer is optically uniaxially anisotropic, while in a case where the optic axis of the optically anisotropic layer is projected onto the polarizer as viewed from the viewing-side of the image display apparatus, the azimuthal angle of the optic axis is +50° to +70° or −50° to −70° with respect to the horizontal direction, the average tilt angle of the optic axis with respect to the main surface of the optically anisotropic layer is 20° to 45°, and the in-plane phase difference Re (550) of the optically anisotropic layer is 70 nm to 240 nm.

An apparatus is configured to efficiently recognize a gesture by interworking with an infotainment system. The apparatus obtains information about the gesture of a user, is connected with the infotainment system of a vehicle to identify a state of the infotainment system, branches a gesture allowed in recognition, based on the state of the infotainment system, and performs gesture recognition, based on the information about the sensed gesture and a result of branching the gesture allowed in recognition. The apparatus addresses overload and reliability degradation problems according to continuous image recognition.

An apparatus for providing an around view comprises: first and second cameras for acquiring first and second image information; and a processor. The processor can generate an around view image including a first area including a subject overlapping area and a second area excluding the subject overlapping area, on the basis of first and second images. The subject overlapping area is disposed between first and second boundary lines in the first and second images. The first boundary line is located in the first area, and the second boundary line adjoins the second area. If it is predicted that a first object will pass through the second boundary line due to the first object approaching within a predetermined distance thereto, the processor can generate an around view image in which the second area is changed so that the second area includes the subject overlapping area.

A vehicle interior component configured to present a user interface for a vehicle occupant with vehicle systems may comprise a housing, cover structure and user interface system to present the user interface at a cover surface. The user interface may comprise a light display to transmit light from a light source and/or an input device comprising a mechanical coupling to interface with a sensor arrangement. The user interface may comprise output from the light display and/or input by interaction with the input device at the cover surface. The component may comprise a module comprising the light display and the input device. The module may comprise an absorber. The light display may comprise a light guide and/or display panel. The light guide may comprise a projection and/or icon to transmit light through an aperture and/or recess of the cover structure.

A vehicle includes a vehicle body having a cabin, a first seat and a second seat arranged in the cabin, a planar transparent member placed on a side surface of the cabin, and that separates an interior of the cabin and a vehicle exterior from each other, and a display device placed on the side surface of the cabin and arranged along the planar transparent member, the display device having a plurality of pixels. At least a part of the display device is placed on the side surface and between the first seat and the second seat.
