The prism includes a lower surface facing the waveguide and configured to receive the at least one image and an upper surface opposite the lower surface configured to project the at least one image received via the lower surface of the prism. The upper surface of the prism is angled relative to the upper surface of the waveguide such that a first normal of the upper surface of the prism is different from a second normal of the upper surface of the waveguide.

An ambient lighting system for automobiles configured to illuminate a passenger compartment, comprises: an optical system in turn comprising: a plurality of RGB LED light sources; a structural support on which the light sources are placed; and a contact surface on which a user can interact, and through which light rays can exit. The ambient lighting system also includes: a control unit configured to control the RGB LED light sources in order to present light animations; and a touch sensor configured to detect touch of the contact surface in a defined region, which is configured to define, along the optical system at least one soft key. The ambient lighting system further includes: a voice command recognition system electronically connected to the control unit and configured to recognize voice commands; and a projector configured to project an image, such as a symbol and/or logo, on the contact surface.

The disclosure relates to the technical field of intelligent devices for vehicles, and particularly provides an augmented reality head-up display system for a vehicle, and a vehicle. The disclosure aims to solve the problem of an augmented reality head-up display system for a vehicle in the prior art usually having a large volume of a head-up controller host, poor heat dissipation of an image projection main optical head, a complex imaging light path, large space requirements for a dashboard, and poor imaging quality. To this end, in the disclosure, the vehicle includes a dashboard, and the augmented reality head-up display system includes an image projection main optical head, a head-up controller host, and a reflective imaging plate. The head-up controller host is arranged inside the dashboard, the image projection main optical head is arranged outside the dashboard, the dashboard is further provided with a light path capable of allowing for light to enter and exit the dashboard, imaging is achieved by means of the combined action of the image projection main optical head, the head-up controller host, the reflective imaging plate and the light path, and the imaging quality is improved.

Often when there is a glare on a display screen the user may be able to mitigate the glare by tilting or otherwise moving the screen or changing their viewing position. However, when driving a car there are limited options for overcoming glares on the dashboard, especially when you are driving for a long distance in the same direction. Embodiments are directed to eliminating such glare. Other embodiments are related to mixed reality (MR) and filling in occluded areas.

The invention relates to a motor vehicle instrument cluster, comprising a digital display screen which is intended to be hidden from the vehicle passengers and capable of displaying a source image containing a multitude of indicator modules for the driver of the vehicle, and a panel (20) located below the digital display screen, at least the main central (20A) and upper (20B) portions of said panel being opaque and reflective, the panel (20) being inclined relative to the display screen so as to reflect the source image towards the driver so that the latter perceives, in his/her field of vision, a virtual image located in front of the panel (20), characterized in that the lateral (20C) and lower (20D) portions of the panel (20) are transparent.

A head-up display for displaying graphics upon a windscreen of a vehicle includes a graphic projection module for generating one or more graphic images upon the windscreen of the vehicle, a forward-facing camera collecting image data representative of a view of a surrounding environment of the vehicle visible through the windscreen, an ambient light sensor detecting a level of ambient light present in the surrounding environment of the vehicle, and one or more controllers in electronic communication with the graphic projection module, the forward-facing camera, and the ambient light sensor. The one or more controllers executes instructions to determine the level of ambient light present in the surrounding environment of the vehicle based on an ambient light signal, and adjusts a saturation level of one or more colors of the one or more graphic images generated by the graphic projection module based on the level of ambient light.

An apparatus for a passenger compartment of a vehicle includes a display panel having an external portion and an internal portion. The passenger compartment is delimited by paneling to separate the passenger compartment from a region outside of the passenger compartment. The internal portion of the display panel is in the passenger compartment of the vehicle. The external portion of the display panel, separated from the passenger compartment by the paneling, is in the region outside of the passenger compartment of the vehicle. The external portion of the display panel is to generate an external display content inside of the region. The apparatus includes a strip in a first opening of the paneling. The strip is to project the external display content of the external portion of the display panel out of the region that is separated from the passenger compartment by the paneling and into the passenger compartment.
