A head-up display apparatus is disclosed. The head-up display apparatus according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises: a display panel; a stereoscopic image filter; and a mirror. The display panel includes a first region in which a first image is displayed and a second region in which a second image is displayed, and the stereoscopic image filter is configured to convert the first image into a stereoscopic image. In an embodiment of the present invention, the first image displayed on the display panel is warped and displayed, thereby preventing distortion of the stereoscopic image when projected on a windshield.

The display system has a three-dimensional and curved display surface made up of a single electronic display screen or several joined electronic display screens, the display surface having at least one main zone dedicated to a pilot and suitable for being located in front of said pilot, the main zone being substantially planar or concave, and at least one lateral zone associated with each main zone, each lateral zone being concave and laterally extending the associated main zone.

A method and apparatus for outputting a three-dimensional (3D) image are provided. To output a 3D image, a stereo image is generated based on viewpoints of a user and rendered into a 3D image. Since the stereo image is generated based on the viewpoints of the user, the user views a different side of an object appearing in the 3D image depending on a viewpoint of the user.

A conditionally transparent touch control surface including a base layer, a display layer, and a surface layer. The display layer includes a plurality of display areas each with an OFF state and an ON state. The surface layer covers the plurality of display areas and each display area is visible through the surface layer only while that display area is in the ON state. The control surface is flexible and contours to a shape such as the shape of an interior surface of a vehicle. The display areas can be reconfigured to match with a specific function and to display a specific icon, and the display areas can be hidden from view when not in use.

The invention relates to a user interface for a vehicle adapted to present visible information; the user interface comprises a two-dimensional display for displaying information on a display portion, and an optical faceplate comprising a contact surface, a three-dimensional display surface for displaying information, and an optic light guide material provided between the contact surface and the three-dimensional display surface; wherein the two-dimensional display comprises a pixel arrangement and a cover layer covering the pixel arrangement; wherein the contact surface contacts the display to transmit information from the pixel arrangement to the three-dimensional display surface; wherein the faceplate is integrated into the display. The invention also relates to a vehicle.

The invention relates to a display device comprising a display plane, on which one or more planar display regions 10, 11 are arranged, said planar regions 10, 11 being covered by transparent coverings. A single transparent covering 3 covers all the planar display regions 10, 11 of the display device, is formed three-dimensionally on the viewer's side by regions of differing thicknesses and is connected on the side facing away from the viewer to the planar display regions 10, 11 by means of optical bonding. The refractive index of the material of the covering 3 corresponds to the refractive index of the optical-bonding material 8.

A head-up display device includes: a display unit that produces a display light for the left eye by modulating a first illumination light derived from superimposing first illumination light beams output from a first region of a fly eye lens and produces a display light for the right eye by modulating a second illumination light derived from superimposing second illumination light beams output a second region of the fly eye lens; and an image processing unit that produces an image for the left eye and produces an image for the right eye; and a display control unit that causes a display unit to display the image for the left eye when the first illumination light is produced and causes the display unit to display the image for the right eye when the second illumination light is produced.

The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for providing cluster information using a three-dimensional (3D) image. The apparatus for providing the cluster information using the 3D image according to the present invention includes an input unit configured to receive display mode setting information and driving information, a memory configured to store a cluster information providing program that uses a 3D image, and a processor configured to execute the cluster information providing program, wherein the processor controls a light source disposed in a cluster according to the display mode setting information to display the driving information.

A three-dimensional display device includes a display panel, a barrier panel, and a controller that controls the display panel and the barrier panel. The controller defines multiple first image areas and multiple second image areas in the display panel, causes the first image areas to be at first intervals in a first direction, causes displaying of a first image viewable by a first eye of a user in the first image areas and a second image viewable by a second eye of the user in the second image areas, defines, in the barrier panel, multiple first transmissive areas transmissive to the image light at a first transmissivity and multiple second transmissive areas transmissive to the image light at a second transmissivity, causes the first transmissive areas to be at second intervals in the first direction, and performs an irregular process at third intervals in the first direction.

A display device includes: a first panel including a first image-forming surface for forming a first image visually recognized by a user and a plurality of first pixels; a second panel including a second image-forming surface for forming a second image visually recognized by the user and a plurality of second pixels; and a half-wavelength plate located between the first image-forming surface and the second image-forming surface. The half-wavelength plate includes an optical axis, is configured to be capable of transmitting incident light from either one panel of the first panel and the second panel, and of emitting light as emission light to the other panel. A polarization direction of the emission light from the half-wavelength plate is determined based on a polarization direction of the incident light on the half-wavelength plate and a direction of the optical axis.
