Three-dimensional display device, three-dimensional display system, head-up display, and mobile object
A display device includes: a display panel configured to display a parallax image including a first image to be viewed by a first eye of a user and a second image to be viewed by a second eye of the user; and an optical member including a plurality of optical elements arranged along a predetermined direction which includes a component in a parallax direction of the first eye and the second eye. A beam direction of the parallax image is defined by the plurality of optical elements. The display panel includes a plurality of subpixels including a plurality of minipixel. Each of the minipixels included in the plurality of subpixels is configured to be able to display different images.
CONTROL OF A DISPLAY OF AN AUGMENTED REALITY HEAD-UP DISPLAY APPARATUS FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
Controlling a display of an augmented reality head-up display for a motor vehicle. The content to be displayed by the augmented reality head-up display may be initially analyzed. In so doing, there can optionally be a prioritization of the content to be displayed. Subsequently, a position of an eyebox of the augmented reality head-up display is adapted on the basis of the content to be displayed.
ROLLABLE/BENDABLE VIRTUAL 3D DISPLAY
A virtual 3D display for a motor vehicle includes a substrate and a flexible display positioned on the substrate. The flexible display is rollable and bendable within a cabin of the motor vehicle.
Presentation of Information on Board a Vehicle
An apparatus for providing information on board a vehicle includes a first display; a second display; a scanning device for capturing a position of a person on board the vehicle; and a processing device. The processing device is configured to: determine a constellation in which the second display is located between the first display and the person; determine a display content of the first display that is covered by the second display; and provide the determined display content on the second display.
VIRTUAL 3D DISPLAY
A virtual 3D display for a motor vehicle includes a substrate and a flexible display positioned on the substrate. The flexible display has two foldable sections and a main section. The main section provides a shared viewing area and each of the foldable sections provides a first and a second independent viewing area.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING A HEAD-UP DISPLAY IN A VEHICLE
Systems and methods for controlling a head-up display (HUD) in a vehicle are disclosed herein. One embodiment deactivates the HUD in response to a command from a driver of the vehicle; assigns a level of urgency to an item of information associated with a current vehicular context; and activates the HUD to display the item of information to the driver, when the level of urgency exceeds a predetermined threshold.
Three-dimensional display system, optical element, installation method, control method, and moving body
A three-dimensional display system includes a display panel, an optical element and a controller. The display panel includes an active area configured to display a parallax image. The optical element defines a light beam direction of the parallax image. The controller is configured to vary the parallax image based on positions of first and second eyes of the user. The optical element includes a plurality of optical means which are arranged in a parallax direction. The plurality of optical means extend along an inclination direction inclined to a reference direction with respect to a direction perpendicular to the parallax direction. The reference direction is defined, at least in a standard state, based on at least one of a position of the user in the parallax direction in an interior of the moving body and a position relative to the user of a predetermined facility mounted within the moving body.
DRIVER VISION ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS AND METHODS
A driver vision assistance system for a vehicle includes a driver state monitoring system configured to monitor a state of a driver of the vehicle including at least a direction of an eye gaze of the driver, a set of vehicle perception systems configured to detect objects proximate to the vehicle, a driver interface configured to output at least one of visual, audio, and haptic information to the driver, and a controller configured to detect a visual difficulty scenario where the driver is having difficulty reading information external to the vehicle, based on the direction of eye gaze of the driver and using the set of vehicle perception systems, detecting a most-likely object that the driver is targeting and having difficulty reading the relative information, and using the driver interface, output at least one of visual, audio, and haptic information assisting the driver in ascertaining the information.
Reticle and target based calibration for augmented reality head-up displays
A HUD calibration system is provided and includes a HUD, a reticle reference object, a target, and a control module. The HUD displays a virtual image including a first center feature and first features. The reticle reference object is physically fixed to a windshield of a vehicle. The target is physically disposed forward of the vehicle and includes a second center feature and second features. The control module: controls the HUD to display the virtual image superimposed over the target; perform a boresighting process to align a center of a cross-hair of the reticle reference object with the first and second center features and generate first reference values; perform an undistortion calibration process to rotate and undistort the virtual image relative to the target and generate second reference values; and adjust operation of the HUD based on the first and second reference values.
HANDS-FREE VEHICLE SENSING AND APPLICATIONS AS WELL AS SUPERVISED DRIVING SYSTEM USING BRAINWAVE ACTIVITY
A device that uses brainwave activity to allow a user to perform hands-free tasks is disclosed. For example, the device can include a transparent display, an electroencephalogram (EEG) sensor, and a processing circuitry coupled to the transparent display and the EEG sensor. The EEG sensor can be configured to sense an EEG signal corresponding to brain activity associated with a user of the device. The processing circuitry can be configured to display a visual stimulus on the transparent display and generate a control signal associated with a task of the user based on the EEG signal. Therefore, the user can use his brainwave activity to perform hands-free tasks.
