A display control device includes a display that is configured to display information, a detector that is configured to detect a partition line for partitioning a lane on a road on which a vehicle is present, and a display controller that is configured to cause the display to display the partition line detected by the detector variably, and the display controller is configured to change a length of the partition line which is displayed by the display on the basis of a detection distance of the detector.

The present invention provides a vehicle control device and a control method therefor. A vehicle control device according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises: an interface unit communicatively connected to a display unit provided in a vehicle; and a processor for controlling the display unit provided in the vehicle through the interface unit, wherein the processor receives destination information through the interface unit, acquires, from map information, spatial coordinates of a building corresponding to the destination information, and controls, on the basis of the spatial coordinates of the building corresponding to the destination information, the display unit so that a graphic object related to the destination information overlaps with the building and is displayed.

Systems, apparatus, computer implemented methods, and computer program products to enhance the operation of a vehicle. A HUD apparatus includes a laser light source to generate laser light to be reflected an optical member, one or more elastically deformable position adjustment members, and one or more UV light sources. The elastically deformable position adjustment members are operable to adjust a spatial orientation of the optical member, and include one or more photochromatic regions to facilitate movement of the one or more elastically deformable position adjustment members from a contracted state to an expanded state in response to exposure to UV light emitted by the U light source(s). In that way, adjustments in the spatial orientation of the optical member and a change in direction of laser light reflected by the optical member as obtained.

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.

An embodiment driving assistance apparatus includes a sensor unit configured to search surroundings of a vehicle using one or more sensors, a steering device configured to control a traveling direction of the vehicle, a control unit configured to calculate a target trajectory of the vehicle using searching information received from the sensor unit and to calculate an expected trajectory of the vehicle based on a steering angle of the steering device, and an output unit configured to display the target trajectory and the expected trajectory for a driver, the display designed to assist a steering operation of the driver.

A vehicle for performing an autonomous parking function, the vehicle including: at least one camera configured to acquire a surrounding image of a vehicle; a display; a storage configured to store a HD map of a parking lot including an autonomous parking preparation zone; and at least one process configured to, based on the surrounding image of the vehicle being processed, generate a surround view image, based on an upper end of a road mark defining the autonomous parking preparation zone being recognized in the surround view image, track a position of the upper end of the road mark, upon the vehicle being stopped while a part of the road mark is recognized, correct a starting point on the HD map of the parking lot based on the position of the upper end of the road mark, and upon a user input for performing an autonomous parking function being received, perform the autonomous parking function based on the correct starting point.

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.

A vehicle display control device, which displays a predetermined image at a display region showing a foreground of a vehicle, includes a memory, and a processor connected to the memory. In a case in which a change operation that changes an advancing direction of the vehicle is planned, the processor displays at least one directional image, which indicates an advancing direction after the change, in the display region, and changes a number of the directional images during a time period until the vehicle reaches a change operation point at which the change operation is to be carried out.

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.
