A pop-up floating type hologram system mounted on a vehicle a pop-up floating module in which a hologram video projected by a video player provided with a skin plate as a vehicle external skin is implemented by a 45° tilted cube of a transparent plate externally exposed through any one of a crush pad, an emblem, an air spoiler, and a mobile holder in a pyramid form or externally exposed through a roof in a reverse pyramid form by the movement by a repulsive force between an electromagnet forming an N pole and a permanent magnet facing the electromagnet as an N pole by a power source supply, hiding the pop-up floating type hologram system using the external skin upon non-operation.

A motor vehicle display device is provided with information on vehicle operating states which can be displayed in an analog and/or digital manner by display elements, wherein in the direction of viewing of the motor vehicle display device, the display elements are disposed at least in two superimposed planes or plane regions. At least one first plane or one first plane region is provided, in which at least one active display element is disposed, and at least one further plane or one further plane region is provided, which is positioned before the first plane or the first plane region in a viewing direction, wherein only passive display elements are disposed therein, with at least one passive display element being disposed there. In this way the motor vehicle display device is given an appearance with a special 3D effect.

A method of displaying a three-dimensional (3D) object includes acquiring a driving image from a single camera, classifying line marks including a road surface into one or more groups based on a change in a curvature of a line of the road surface, estimating a pitch angle corresponding to an angle of inclination between the road surface and the single camera for each of the one or more groups, generating 3D information of the road surface, and displaying an 3D object visually overlaid on the road surface based on the 3D information of the road surface.

The disclosure includes a system and method for wireless data sharing between a mobile client device and a three-dimensional heads-up display unit. A system may include a three-dimensional heads-up display unit (“3D HUD”) installed in a vehicle. The system may include a memory storing instructions that, when executed, cause the system to: establish a peer-to-peer video stream between a mobile client device and the vehicle; generate live video data for providing a video stream for causing a screen of the mobile client device to display visual content of the 3D HUD that includes substantially live images depicting what the driver of the vehicle sees when looking at the 3D HUD; and stream the live video data to the mobile client device to cause the screen of the mobile client device to display the video stream that depicts what the driver of the vehicle sees when looking at the 3D HUD.

A driver-assistance method and a driver-assistance apparatus are provided. In the method, a movement trajectory of wheels in surroundings of a vehicle when the vehicle moves are calculated. Multiple cameras disposed on the vehicle are used to capture images of multiple perspective views surrounding the vehicle, and the images of the perspective views are transformed into images of a top view. A synthetic image surrounding the vehicle is generated according to the images of the perspective views and the top view. Finally, the synthetic image and the movement trajectories are mapped and combined to a 3D model surrounding the vehicle and a movement image including the movement trajectories having a viewing angle from an upper rear side to a lower front side of the vehicle is provided by using the 3D model when backing up the vehicle.

The method may include receiving first location information of a vehicle through a location information module, capturing an image through a camera while the vehicle is driven, extracting characteristic points from the captured image and converting the captured image into a 3-D image, obtaining second location information by correcting the first location information based on a moving displacement and orientation direction of the camera installed on the vehicle, extracting an aerial view from the 3-D image based on the moving displacement and orientation direction of the camera, estimating a moving path of the vehicle using locations of traffic lanes included in the aerial view and the second location information, and displaying the captured image and the moving path of the vehicle in augmented reality by combining the captured image and the moving path. According to the present invention, accurate location information can be provided when a vehicle is driven.

A display device includes a liquid crystal panel providing a display surface where an image is displayed, a backlight emitting light to the liquid crystal panel from behind, a real object placed between the liquid crystal panel and the backlight and visible through the liquid crystal panel, and a controller controlling the liquid crystal panel such that a specific pixel region of the display surface behind which the real object is positioned is higher in light transmittance than another pixel region of the display surface.

A head-up display system includes a three-dimensional display device, an optical member, and an accelerometer. The three-dimensional display device includes a display panel, an optical element, and a controller. The display panel displays an image. The optical element defines a traveling direction of image light emitted from the display panel. The optical member reflects the image light from the three-dimensional display device toward a user's eye. The optical member is at a fixed position relative to the three-dimensional display device. The accelerometer detects acceleration of the three-dimensional display device. The controller controls a position of the image on the display panel based on the acceleration.

Vehicle monitoring employs three-dimensional (3D) information in a region adjacent to a vehicle to visually highlight objects that are closer to the vehicle than a threshold distance. A vehicle monitoring system includes a 3D scanner to scan the region adjacent to the vehicle and provide a 3D model including a spatial configuration of objects located within the scanned region. The vehicle monitoring system further includes a 3D electronic display to display a portion of the scanned region using the 3D model and to visually highlight an object within the displayed portion that is located less than the threshold distance from the vehicle.

A heads-up display device includes a display unit which outputs a 3D image and at least one holographic optical element which is attached to a windshield of the vehicle to diffract and reflect the 3D image output from the display unit so that a reflection efficiency of the 3D image may be improved while minimizing a module volume.
