Systems and methods are provided herein for presenting information in a vehicle. In one example, a method includes determining a route from a source location to a destination location, obtaining one or more features of the route, augmenting a map of the route with the one or more features to generate an augmented map, and displaying the augmented map on a windshield of the vehicle.

A method includes detecting at least one remote vehicle that is within a predetermined distance from the host vehicle, detecting that the light of the remote vehicle that is on, determining a luminous intensity of a light beam emitted by the light of at least one remote vehicle that is within the predetermined distance from the host vehicle, comparing the luminous intensity of the light beam emitted by the light of at least one remote vehicle to a predetermined threshold to determine whether the luminous intensity of the light beam emitted by the light is greater than the predetermined threshold in response to determining the luminous intensity of the light of at least one remote vehicle that is within the predetermined distance from the host vehicle, and dimming at least a portion of the windshield of the host vehicle.

A vehicle display device includes a display control unit that is configured to: display markers in positions, on a display unit, corresponding to future positions of a host vehicle which are acquired from an autonomous driving control unit that autonomously drives the host vehicle, and move display positions of the markers on the display unit in accordance with travel of the host vehicle and toward a reference position on the display unit corresponding to the host vehicle.

An information display apparatus may include a processor configured to display a display object in augmented reality; and a storage configured to store data and algorithms driven by the processor, wherein the processor determines a position of the display object by use of at least one of a total number of lanes or a number of lanes in a road in a driving direction of a host vehicle, possible traveling direction information for each lane, and driving direction information related to the host vehicle, and the information display apparatus is disposed within a vehicle or outside the vehicle, and when disposed outside the vehicle, is configured to transmit display information related to the display object to the vehicle or a mobile device.

According to an aspect of the present disclosure, an interaction system for a first vehicle is provided, which comprises a processor and a memory storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the latter to implement steps comprising: receiving a first input from the first vehicle and displaying a first avatar on a display; and receiving a second input from a second vehicle and displaying a second avatar on the display, wherein the first input and the second input are updated in real time, and the first avatar and the second avatar dynamically change accordingly.

A system and method for assisting drivers of vehicles are described. The systems and methods provide an extended view of the area surrounding the driver's vehicle while providing real-time object trajectory for objects and other vehicles that may enter the driver's reactionary zone. The system and methods capture images of the area surrounding the driver's vehicle and create a composite image of that area in real-time and using Augmented Reality (AR) create a 3-D overlay to warn the driver as objects or other vehicles enter the driver's reactionary zone so that a driver can make more informed driving decisions.

A method for low visibility driving includes receiving image data from a visible-light camera. The image data includes an image of an area in front of a vehicle. The method includes receiving sensor data from an object-detecting sensor. The object-detecting sensor is configured to detect an object in front of the vehicle. The sensor data includes information about the object in front of the vehicle. The method further includes detecting the object in front of the vehicle using the sensor data received from the object-detecting sensor and determining whether the visible-light camera is unable to detect the object in front of the vehicle that was detected by the object-detecting sensor. The method further includes commanding a display to generate a virtual image using the sensor data to identify the object in front of the vehicle.

The present invention relates to a vehicle user interface device including a display configured to display a first Augmented Reality (AR) graphic object at a point in a display area corresponding to a first point, and at least one processor configured to obtain distance data between a vehicle and the first point and change the first AR graphic object based on the distance data.

A system and method may track data from one or more sensors during vehicle driving. Based on the sensors data, one or more alerts or potential hazards may be identified. The system and method may generate a drive summary including information and optional statistics about the alerts or potential hazards.

A head-up display system includes a projection module including a display panel to project an image displayed on the display panel, a reflective optical element that reflects at least a part of the image, an optical member located between the projection module and the reflective optical element and having light-shielding capability, and a controller that controls the light-shielding capability of the optical member.
