A reflectance/transmittance of an optical device disposed at a position through which image light emitted from a liquid crystal display displaying an icon passes is changed according to an anti-glare level to achieve anti-glare of the reflected image. A color of the icon displayed on the liquid crystal display is adjusted such that the higher the transmittance of the optical device is, the lower the lightness is, so that the icon of a similar color is visually recognized regardless of the reflectance/transmittance of the optical device.

A vehicle control system includes a steering operation element configured to receive a steering operation of a vehicle by a driver, a grip detector configured to detect a gripping state of the steering operation element by the driver of the vehicle, and a display processor configured to cause a display device to display a notification image indicating at least the gripping state. The notification image includes a first graphic deformable based on a circle within an entire image area. The display processor causes the display device to display the notification image including the first graphic deformed to expand a location corresponding to a part where the driver is gripping the steering operation element.

An information display device includes a display unit configured to display information about an object such that the information about the object at least partially overlaps with forward view of a user, and a controller configured to control display of the display unit. The controller is configured to estimate or acquire a prospective moving direction of the object, acquire a sight-line frequency representing a frequency with which a sight-line of the user is directed to the object within a prescribed period, determine whether the sight-line frequency is equal to or more than a prescribed frequency threshold, and cause the display unit to display the prospective moving direction of the object at least on condition that the controller determines that the sight-line frequency is less than the frequency threshold.

A surround view monitoring system and a method for providing the same, including a plurality of registration cameras, each mounted on a vehicle and photographing different areas around the vehicle; a depth camera that acquires distance information with respect to an obstacle existing around the vehicle; an image synthesis unit that generates a synthesis image by synthesizing images photographed by the plurality of registration cameras, and displays the distance information with respect to the obstacle acquired by the depth camera on an obstacle existing in the synthesis image; and an image control unit that displays the synthesized synthesis image on a display device are disclosed.

An information provision system mounted on a vehicle includes: a visual device configured to visually provide information to an occupant of the vehicle; and a controller configured to control the visual device. The controller is further configured to: cause the visual device to provide first information in a first period; cause the visual device to provide second information different from the first information in a second period later than the first period; and set at least one of a luminance and a saturation of the visual device in at least a part of an information switching period between the first period and the the second period to be lower than that in the first period and the second period.

A lead vehicle braking warning system includes a speed sensor, a detector, a display and an electronic controller. The speed sensor measures current speed of a host vehicle. The detector detects current speed of a lead vehicle relative to the speed of the host vehicle. The display has a braking condition display area configured to display each of a plurality of braking conditions of the lead vehicle for the operator of the host vehicle. The electronic controller is in electronic communication with the speed sensor, the detector and the display. The electronic controller determines whether or not the lead vehicle is currently decelerating and determine which one of a plurality of braking conditions is currently being experienced by the lead vehicle and display information identifying the current one of the plurality of braking conditions of the lead vehicle within the braking condition display area of the display.

An example method includes detecting a potential threat to a vehicle that is external to the vehicle, determining a severity level of the potential threat and a location of the potential threat relative to the vehicle, and displaying an indication of the potential threat on an electronic display in a particular portion of the electronic display corresponding to the location and with a particular display attribute corresponding to the severity level. The particular portion is one of a plurality of different portions of the electronic display each corresponding to different threat locations, and the particular display attribute is one of a plurality of different display attributes corresponding to different severity levels. A corresponding system that detects and displays notifications of potential threats is also disclosed.

A system and method for guiding an implement on a machine to a target location is disclosed. The system comprises a GUI and a controller in operable communication with the GUI. The controller is configured to: (a) determine a current location of the implement relative to the target location on the work surface; and (b) display on the GUI a symbol in one of a plurality of states, each state associated with one or more locations of the implement relative to the target location. The state in which the symbol is displayed is indicative of the current location of the implement relative to the target location and each state is identified by at least one illuminated portion of the symbol. The controller is further configured to: (c) repeat (a) and (b) each time the implement is moved to a new current location.

A system and method are provided and include a light source projector with a positional actuator mounted on a subject vehicle that projects laser lines on a roadway upon which the subject vehicle is traveling. A controller receives steering angle data from a steering system of the subject vehicle, the steering angle data corresponding to a steering angle of the subject vehicle. The controller determines a turning path of the subject vehicle based on the steering angle data and controls the positional actuator to project the laser lines on the roadway to correspond to the determined turning path of the subject vehicle.

The disclosure is related to a method and a system for assisting a driver of a road vehicle. A data processing unit receives data representing at least a relative position of the road vehicle, outputs, through a display device and/or an interior lighting device, a visual alert when the data processing unit determines that the data fulfill a first condition, and outputs, through a sound-emitting device, an audible alert when the data processing unit determines that the data fulfill a second condition after fulfilling the first condition.
