Described are various embodiments of a digital display device to render an image for viewing by a viewer having reduced visual acuity, the device comprising: a digital display medium for rendering the image based on pixel data related thereto; a complementary light field display portion; and a hardware processor operable on said pixel data for a selected portion of the image to be rendered via said complementary light field display portion so to produce vision-corrected pixel data corresponding thereto to at least partially address the viewer's reduced visual acuity when viewing said selected portion as rendered in accordance with said vision-corrected pixel data by said complementary light field display portion.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a system for controlling media play comprising: a control target recognition unit configured to recognize target medium that is to be controlled by the user, among mediums that are played using a vehicle display, a control command generation unit configured to generate a control command according to a result of recognizing a user's request for the target medium; and a medium control unit configured to control the target medium according to the control command.

A vehicle according to embodiments includes a display unit displaying information related to the vehicle, a sensor unit detecting a position of a user of the vehicle, and a processor controlling the display unit, wherein the sensor unit is located at a bottom end of the display unit and wherein the sensor unit includes at least one or more light emitting units emitting light and at least one or more sensors receiving the light.

A vehicle includes a system for recording and analyzing user preferences during a vehicle test drive. The system includes a processor and a memory that stores processor-readable instructions. When executed by the processor, the processor-readable instructions cause the system to: determine a user identity; create a user preference profile based on the user identity; communicate a prerecorded message describing one or more vehicle options to the user; record a user response of the user in response to the prerecorded message; analyze the recorded user response; and update the user preference profile based on the analysis of the recorded user response.

Redundant vehicle controls based on user presence and position are disclosed herein. A method can include determining a presence and a position of a driver in a sensing zone of a vehicle using a sensor platform integrated into the vehicle. The sensing zone is associated with a primary driving interface of the vehicle. Determining when the position of the driver indicates that the driver is not in a fully-seated position relative to a driver's seat of the vehicle, and that the vehicle is in a non-seated drive mode where the driver is permitted to operate the vehicle while not being in the fully-seated position. Activating a secondary driving interface of the vehicle when the driver is not in a fully-seated position and the vehicle is in the selected driving mode. The secondary driving interface can be used in combination with the primary driving interface.

A navigation method, an electronic device and a readable storage medium, which relate to a field of vehicle networking technology, and in particular to a field of navigation technology. The navigation method includes: acquiring a real world image and a navigation information; converting the real world image to obtain a projection image, wherein the projection image is matched with an eyebox of at least one pair of vehicle-mounted glasses; superimposing the navigation information on the projection image to obtain a navigation image; and transmitting to the vehicle-mounted glasses the navigation image so that the navigation image is displayed by the vehicle-mounted glasses.

A method includes receiving a first signal from a button circuit and first sensed signal data from a sensor circuit in the first temporal period. A first occupancy area of a set of occupancy areas is identified based on the first sensed signal data. Performance of a first functionality associated is facilitated based on identifying the first occupancy area. A second signal from the button circuit and second sensed signal data is received in a second temporal period. A second occupancy area of the set of occupancy areas is identified based on the second sensed signal data. Performance of a second functionality is facilitated based on identifying the second occupancy area.

An infotainment system for a motor vehicle includes a display screen positioned to be visible by a passenger of the motor vehicle. A storage arrangement stores a collection of video segments to be presented on the display screen. The storage arrangement also stores metadata in association with the video segments. A user interface receives inputs from the passenger. A sensor detects a characteristic of the passenger. A processing arrangement is communicatively coupled to each of the display screen, the collection of video segments, the user interface and the sensor. The processing arrangement selects one of the video segments to present on the display screen. The selecting of the one video segment is dependent upon inputs received from the passenger via the user interface, signals received from the sensor indicative of the characteristic of the passenger, and metadata associated with individual segments.

A system may present notifications to an occupant of a vehicle and determine whether the occupant has given attention to the notification. The system oscillates a visual notification at an output frequency. The system captures images of an eye of the occupant to determine an eye pupil oscillation frequency associated with the occupant. The system compares the eye pupil oscillation frequency to the output frequency. The system determines whether attention was given to the notification based on whether the output frequency and the eye pupil oscillation frequency match. If the system determines that attention was not given, the system may cause performance of one or more follow-up operations.

In an information display system that allows an observer to visually recognize image information displayed on an image display apparatus by superimposing the image on an external scenery through a window glass and a combiner, the system includes a light source apparatus that supplies light having a specific polarization direction at a narrow divergence angle to the image display apparatus, a reflection position of the image is changed by arranging a position and an angle of the image display apparatus with respect to the window glass so that the position and the angle change while a monitoring angle of the image visually recognized by the observer is constant, and a virtual image display distance of the image visually recognized by the observer and a size of the image of the virtual image can be changed by the arrangement state in the vehicle.
