This invention provides a method for adaptively processing car information. The method includes: receiving a first car information, identifying system function(s) thereof, and analyzing all system malfunctions thereof; receiving a second car information; determining a relation between the system malfunctions and the second car information at a relative predetermined safe threshold; setting a severity level, an exposure level, and a controllability level for a hazard event based on a predetermined standard when the safe threshold is gone beyond; and classifying the first car information to a safe level according to the severity level, the exposure level, and the controllability level.

A display control device includes a processor. The processor is configured to acquire a travel route of a vehicle, in a case in which the vehicle, traveling on a travel path, changes a travel direction to another travel path, set a display position of a guidance display that guides the travel direction with respect to a display region of a display unit, on the basis of a positional relationship between the display region and the other travel path, and display the guidance display, the display position of which has been set relative to a view ahead of the vehicle, so as to be superimposed on the display region.

The present invention enables recognition of traffic light lamp color in place of or in addition to simply displaying the traffic light lamp color in a color image. A projection unit projects, towards a part subject to projection, display light L that can display an image at a variable display distance. A lamp color information acquisition unit acquires a lamp color of a traffic light which a vehicle will be driving through. A display distance adjustment unit changes the display distance of the image based on the lamp color acquired by an information acquisition unit.

A method includes determining the position of the motor vehicle, identifying at least one object not relevant to road traffic as an object in the landscape in the surroundings of the motor vehicle, depending on the determined position, detecting at least the direction of view of a passenger as an occupant of the motor vehicle, and providing a display with information about the at least one object in the landscape viewed by the passenger, such that said information is provided in the direct field of view of the passenger, as defined by the direction of view of the same, in the same place as the object.

A vehicle is configured to image, with an outside camera, an identification mark associated with a content provided by a service provider, output the content associated with the imaged identification mark to an occupant in a cabin of the vehicle, acquire operation information on the occupant relating to the output content, and acquire information regarding the occupant when the occupant performs operation relating to the content in the vehicle cabin. An information processing apparatus is configured to, when determining that the output content is not selected by the occupant based on the operation information on the occupant, determine whether or not to update the content that is not selected, based on the information regarding the occupant.

Digital mirror systems for vehicles and methods of operating the same are disclosed. An example vehicle control system includes: a driver monitoring system including a head position determiner to determine at least one of a location of a head, an orientation of the head, or an eye gaze point of the head; a digital mirror system including a region-of-interest (ROI) detector to identify an ROI based on the at least one of the location of the head, the orientation of the head, or the eye gaze point of the head, and a cropper to extract a portion of a first image corresponding to the ROI to form a second image, the first image representing an area exterior to the vehicle; and a display within an interior area of the vehicle to present the second image.

Content on a display of a vehicle is controlled based on a degree of automation of a driving state of the vehicle and at least one further state variable of the vehicle or of a passenger.

Disclosed is a method for operating an operating system in a vehicle, wherein display data of a graphical user interface comprising at least one first display region are generated and output. The graphical user interface comprises a basic state and an info state. Context data about a current context of the vehicle are recorded and a first relevance value is determined for a first info application based on the recorded context data. The info state is activated depending on the determined first relevance value of the first info application, wherein, when the info state is activated, the first display region is reduced in size such that an info region is formed and a graphical info object is generated using the first info application and output in the info region.

The technology relates to providing an enhanced user experience for riders in autonomous vehicles. Two or more displays may be arranged at different locations within a vehicle to provide notifications, alerts and control options. Information may be dynamically and automatically switched between these displays, as well as a rider's own personal communication device(s). What information to present on each screen can depend on factors including how many riders are in the vehicle, their seating within the vehicle, how their attention is focused and/or display location and size. Certain information may be mirrored or otherwise duplicated among multiple screens while other information can be presented asymmetrically on different screens. Presented information may include a “monologue” from the vehicle explaining why a driving action is taken or not taken, alerts about important conditions, buttons to control certain functionality of the vehicle, or other information that may be of interest to the rider.

A driver-assisting system for an industrial vehicle comprising: a first camera mounted on a vehicle cab for viewing an area in front of the vehicle; an image processing unit operatively connected to said first camera for receiving image data from said first camera; a display unit operatively connected to said image processing unit for displaying image to a user based on said image data; a control unit operatively connected to said first camera for modifying operating parameters of said first camera; wherein the first camera is adapted to provide a wide-angle field of vision, and in that the field of vision of said first camera relative to the vehicle can be adjusted by the control unit.
