Display control system, mobile body, display control method, display device, display method, and recording medium
A display control system includes a plurality of display devices and a display controller (display device). The display controller generates a graphics command for each frame, and attaches, to the graphics command, time stamp corresponding to an order of generation of the graphics command. Each of the plurality of display devices: acquires the graphics command; performs, in parallel, first processing of acquiring only the time stamp attached to the graphics command in the order of generation and second processing of performing rendering processing based on the graphics command in the order of generation and acquiring the time stamp attached to the graphics command based on which the rendering processing is performed; and when a difference between the time stamp acquired in the first processing and the time stamp acquired in the second processing exceeds a predetermined threshold value, performs reduction processing for reducing a load on the rendering processing.
VEHICULAR DRIVER MONITORING SYSTEM
A vehicular driver monitoring system includes an interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly and a camera disposed at the interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly behind and viewing through an electrochromic mirror reflective element into the interior cabin of the vehicle. Supplemental sources of near infrared illumination are integrated into the mirror assembly that, when powered to emit near infrared light, illuminate at least the driver-side front seating area within the interior cabin of the vehicle. Presence of the camera is not readily apparent to an occupant of the vehicle. The camera at least (a) views the driver-side front seating area of the equipped vehicle and (b) views a passenger-side front seating area of the equipped vehicle. The driver of the equipped vehicle is monitored via processing at the processor of image data captured by the camera.
Display system for a vehicle
A display system for providing information display. The display system includes a display device, and control circuitry that controls the display device to display a gauge graphic including a scale for a vehicle parameter and a needle movable on the scale. The scale comprises a plurality of regions. The control circuitry further receives a first value of the vehicle parameter. The control circuitry further controls, based on a determination that the first value is between a first predetermined threshold and a second predetermined threshold, the display of a background color gradient on a first region of the plurality of regions based on the first value. The control circuitry further extends the background color gradient on a second region of the plurality of regions based on a determination that the first value exceeds the second predetermined threshold. The second region displays a solid color based on the background color gradient.
HEAD-UP DISPLAY SYSTEM
An HUB system 1 is equipped with an HUB device 10 for displaying a video in front of a vehicle; a communication unit 31 for connecting a mobile device 3 with the HUD device and establishing communication; a speaker 32 for outputting sounds to a driver; a microphone 33 for picking up the voices of the driver; a sound recognition unit 34 for analyzing the picked-up voices; and an in-vehicle camera 35 for photographing the face of the driver. When there is an incoming call at the mobile device, a calling indication of the mobile device 3 is displayed on the display screen of the HUD device, an incoming call sound is outputted from the speaker, and on the basis of a result of an analysis of voices uttered by the driver performed by the sound recognition unit, the conversation operations of the mobile device are started or ended.
DYNAMIC IMAGE ADJUSTMENT TO ENHANCE OFF- AXIS VIEWING IN A DISPLAY ASSEMBLY
A display assembly includes a display console displaying at least one image on an image plane. The image is divided into a plurality of pixels. A controller is operatively connected to the display console and includes a processor and tangible, non-transitory memory on which is recorded instructions for executing a method for dynamically adjusting the image in real-time for off-axis viewing. The controller is programmed to generate a compensation-over-viewing-angle map which includes respective compensation factors for each of the plurality of pixels for multiple viewing positions. In one embodiment, the controller is programmed to apply separate respective compensation factors for the instantaneous viewing positions of a first user at a time j and a second user at a time k. In another embodiment, the controller is programmed to apply first and second compensation factors simultaneously at a time m, for a first image and a second image, respectively.
System and method for automatically adjusting an angle of a three-dimensional display within a vehicle
A vehicle display assembly includes a three-dimensional (3D) display, and an actuator coupled to the 3D display. The actuator is configured to adjust an orientation of the 3D display relative to a vehicle occupant. The vehicle display assembly also includes a sensor assembly configured to monitor a position of a head of the vehicle occupant, and a controller communicatively coupled to the sensor assembly and to the actuator. The controller is configured to instruct the actuator to adjust the orientation of the 3D display based on the position of the head of the vehicle occupant.
VEHICLE INFORMATION DISPLAY APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
A vehicle information display apparatus includes: at least one processor configured to receive a vehicle state of a vehicle, and detect a forward object ahead of the vehicle; a flip-dot display installed in the vehicle and configured to implement a pixel by rotating a flip disk; and an illumination module installed around the flip-dot display, and configured to illuminate a surface of the flip-dot display.
VEHICULAR DRIVER MONITORING SYSTEM
A vehicular driver monitoring system includes an interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly and a camera disposed at the interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly behind and viewing through an electrochromic mirror reflective element into the interior cabin of the vehicle. Supplemental sources of near infrared illumination are integrated into the mirror assembly that, when powered to emit near infrared light, illuminate at least a front seating area within the interior cabin of the vehicle. Presence of the camera is not readily apparent to an occupant sitting in the interior cabin of the vehicle. The interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly includes a processor that processes image data captured by the camera. The camera at least views a driver-side front seating area of the vehicle and, via processing at the processor of image data captured by the camera, the driver seated at the driver-side front seating area is monitored.
DISPLAY PANEL AND VEHICLE INCLUDING THE DISPLAY PANEL
A display panel includes: a substrate; a display element layer including a first organic light-emitting diode having a first emission area, a second organic light-emitting diode having a second emission area, and a third organic light-emitting diode having a third emission area, the first emission area having a long side extending in a first direction and a short side extending in a second direction intersecting the first direction; an encapsulation layer disposed on the display element layer; and a plurality of first light-blocking lines disposed on the encapsulation layer and extending in the first direction, the plurality of first light-blocking lines overlapping the first emission area, the second emission area, and the third emission area.
Head-up display device
A head-up display device including a screen; a projector that projects a visual image to the screen using a projection lens; an image generator that generates a virtual image of the visual image to be visually recognized by a user from the visual image projected to the screen; and a processor that is programmed to: decide a position at which the virtual image is generated; and move the projection lens and the screen in a front-rear direction along an optical path, wherein the processor moves the projection lens and the screen along the optical path based on the position decided.
