Display control device and display control method
A display control device for controlling a display position of a virtual image displayed and superimposed on a foreground in a vehicle (A), includes: an information acquisition unit for acquiring state information of the vehicle and extracting attitude change information and vibration information of the vehicle from the state information; a position correction unit for correcting a displacement of the display position of the virtual image with respect to the foreground caused by the attitude change of the vehicle, based on the attitude change information; a rough road determination unit for determining whether a road is a rough road, the road on which the vehicle is traveling or scheduled to travel, based on the vibration information; and a correction suppression unit for suppressing a correction control of the display position executed by the position correction unit and continuing to display the virtual image, based on a rough road determination.
HEAD-UP DISPLAY FOR VEHICLE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME
A vehicle head-up display that automatically repositions an eyebox by measuring a distance to a driver's face and a method of controlling the same are disclosed. A method of controlling a vehicle head-up display according to some embodiments includes performing a distance measurement by using a displacement sensor for measuring a distance to a face of a driver and performing a display position adjustment including adjusting a display position and a display angle of head-up display information based on a measured distance to the face of the driver. Positioning of driver's face and then automatically adjusting the display position and the display angle of the head-up display information adaptively to individual drivers can reduce the inconveniences of the manual setting of the head-up display in a vehicle frequented with car-sharing drivers.
Virtual human-machine interface system and corresponding virtual human-machine interface method for a vehicle
A virtual human-machine interface system for a vehicle including at least one projection surface disposed within the vehicle and a corresponding virtual human-machine interface method for a vehicle are provided. The virtual human-machine interface system comprises at least one micro-mirror projection device for projecting an image on the at least one projection surface, at least one sensor for detecting commands given by a user by determining the position of a part of the user's body within the vehicle, and a control unit for controlling the human-machine interface system. The position of the image projected by the at least one projection device within the vehicle may be modified by a specific command given by the user.
Aid for a driver with impaired field of view
The disclosed subject matter generally relates to alerting a vehicle driver having impaired eye sight of an object present in a portion of a field of view of the driver where the driver has impaired eye sight. With embodiments of the present disclosure, a driver with impaired eye sight may be provided with an alert when an object is present in a portion of a field of view of the driver where the driver has impaired eye sight. In this way may drivers who otherwise may feel uncomfortable driving due to impaired eye sight in parts of their field of view, be provided with an aid for safely driving the vehicle. This provides for improved quality of life for the person who may be able to safely drive the vehicle, and also for an improved safety when the person drives the vehicle.
Head-up display apparatus for vehicle
Provided is a head-up display apparatus for a vehicle.
