The proposed invention relates to methods for controlling energy consumption by a motor vehicle, and can be used in transportation industry. The technical problem to be solved by the claimed invention is to provide a device and a system that do not possess the drawbacks of the prior art and thus make it possible to generate an accurate energy-efficient track for a motor vehicle that allows to reduce energy consumption by the motor vehicle on the specific portion of the route, as well as to reliably signal about energy consumption by the motor vehicle and the ways of reducing its energy consumption.

An information display apparatus that displays image information on a vehicle includes a HUD apparatus projecting a large-scale virtual image onto a distant position and serving as a first information display apparatus 100 arranged between a windshield glass 6 of the vehicle and an instrument panel, and effectively displays a plurality of pieces of the image information by making coordination with a second information display apparatus 48 close to the windshield glass 6, the second information display apparatus causing a transparent dispersion sheet in the windshield glass to directly reflect a screen of a large-scale high-resolution image display panel so that the screen is observed by the driver.

Provided is a control system using an in-vehicle gesture input, and more particularly, a system for receiving a vehicle occupant's gesture and controlling the execution of vehicle functions. The control system using an in-vehicle gesture input includes an input unit configured to receive a user's gesture, a memory configured to store a control program using an in-vehicle gesture input therein, and a processor configured to execute the control program. The processor performs an information display control for areas layered in a windshield screen according to the user's gesture.

A projection display device includes a display device, an optical system, and a shielding plate. The optical system includes a first mirror and a second mirror provided on the regular optical path, the second mirrors being to provide an optical path convergence point on the regular optical path, and the first mirrors being provided at a position corresponding to the optical path convergence point. The projection display device is configured such that a position of a mirror surface of the first mirror and the second mirror is adjustable in accordance with a position of an eye point of a user so as to project the light toward the projection position that corresponds to the position of the eye point. The shielding plate is provided such that the shieling plate does not interfere with the regular optical path and such that the shielding plate interferes with the different optical path.

Described is a windshield for a vehicle, for example, a motor vehicle, having a peripheral edge region. The peripheral edge region may contain a black print. The windshield may have at least one separate dark display region, which is isolated from the black print in the edge region. The dark display region may be a film laminated in the windshield. Further described are a display device for such a windshield and a motor vehicle having such a windshield.

A camera apparatus includes a windshield and a camera. The camera captures an image of at least an eye of a driver of a movable body through the windshield.

A display system which controls a display of display content, includes: a processor; and a memory having stored thereon instructions executable by the processor. The instructions include: performing image correction processing involving a change in a display position of the display content based on image correction data stored in advance; detecting an attitude change amount of a moving body; calculating a vibration correction amount of the display position of the display content based on the attitude change amount of the moving body; switching an order of processing between image correction processing involving a change in the display position of the display content and vibration correction processing of correcting the display position of the display content based on the vibration correction amount; and controlling the display position of the display content by performing the image correction processing and the vibration correction processing based on the order of the processing.

A method for the performance-enhancing driver assistance of a road vehicle on a track comprising the steps of: determining, in use, the current position and the current orientation of the road vehicle on the track by means of a tracking device; identifying an optimal trajectory in relation to the conformation of the track and/or the to road vehicle; determining, in use, a lateral deviation of the road vehicle from the optimal trajectory and/or an understeer/oversteer condition in curve; suggesting to the driver, by means of a haptic interface device arranged in such a way that it is perceivable by the driver and does not obstruct the driver's view of the road, depending on the lateral deviation and/or on the understeer/oversteer condition in curve, one or more actions to be performed in order to vary a lateral dynamic of the road vehicle in order to perform a mission which optimises the performance on the track.

A method for the performance-enhancing driver assistance of a road vehicle on a track comprising the steps of:

determining, in use, the current position and the current orientation of the road vehicle on the track by means of a tracking device; identifying an optimal trajectory in relation to the conformation of the track and/or to the road vehicle; determining, in use, a relative position of the road vehicle with respect to the optimal trajectory by identifying a longitudinal relative position on the optimal trajectory; suggesting to the driver, by means of one or more colours emitted or assumed by a light interface device, depending on the longitudinal relative position, one or more actions to be performed to vary a longitudinal dynamic of the road vehicle in order to perform a mission optimising the performance on the track.

A display device includes a transparent display screen element, which has a front side and a rear side opposite to the front side, and a polarizing element arranged flatly on the rear side of the transparent display screen element. The polarizing element is to attenuate light output by at least one lighting element of the transparent display screen element. A motor vehicle may have such a display device, in particular where the display device may be arranged freestanding at or on an interior trim element of the motor vehicle.
