HEAD UP DISPLAY
A head up display that projects a video onto a windshield of a transportation, thereby displaying a virtual image related to the video to a driver, the head up display including a video display device including a light source and a display element and configured to form the video, and video light projecting means configured to project and reflect a video light emitted from the video display device on the windshield, thereby displaying the virtual image in front of the transportation, the video light projecting means including a reflection mirror that reflects the video light emitted from the video display device to the windshield, and the reflection mirror including, on its outer peripheral portion, deflection means configured to direct a reflected light in a direction different from a direction toward a line of sight of the driver.
Cold forming of complexly curved glass articles
Embodiments of this disclosure pertain to a vehicle interior system comprising a base having a base surface; and a glass article coupled to the surface, wherein the glass article comprises a first portion comprising a first elastically deformed surface forming a first concave shape with a first radius of curvature from about 20 mm to about 2000 mm, and a second elastically deformed surface directly opposite the first elastically deformed surface that forms a second convex shape, wherein the second elastically deformed surface has a surface compressive stress that is less than a compressive stress at the first elastically deformed surface, and a second portion adjacent the first portion, wherein the second portion is substantially planar portion or curved.
DISPLAY SYSTEM AND LIGHT CONTROL FILM THEREFOR
A head-up display for a vehicle comprises an optical component having a reflective surface arranged, during head-up display operation, in a configuration that is conducive to sunlight glare. A light control layer is disposed on the optical component to receive sunlight on an optical path to the reflective surface. The light control layer comprises a sunlight-receiving surface and a core material separating an array of louvres. The sunlight-receiving surface of the light control layer is serrated in coordination with the array of louvres so as to deflect received sunlight away from the eye-box of the head-up display.

Head-up display
Head-up display includes: display element for displaying an image, and a projection optical system for projecting the image, which is displayed on display element, onto viewing region of viewer. The projection optical system includes combiner that is disposed at a position in an optical path from display element to viewing region of viewer. Combiner has a surface at which light incident from display element enters; the surface has a curved surface shape. Combiner has an effective region corresponding to viewing region of viewer. In the effective region, combiner has a horizontal cross-sectional shape that changes in thickness along from the center toward an end.
SCREEN ASSEMBLY FOR AN INTERIOR OF A VEHICLE, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A POSITION OF A SCREEN COMPONENT IN AN INTERIOR OF A VEHICLE, DATA PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND SCREEN SYSTEM FOR AN INTERIOR OF A VEHICLE
A screen assembly for an interior of a vehicle. The screen assembly includes a base component being configured for being arranged in an interior of an instrument panel or in an interior of a center console of the vehicle. Moreover, the screen assembly includes a screen component including a screen unit being configured for displaying information for a user of the vehicle. A translational guiding means is kinematically arranged between the screen component and the base component such that the screen component is translationally movable relative to the base component. Moreover, a first rotational guiding means is kinematically arranged between the screen component and the base component such that the screen component is tiltable. Additionally, a method for controlling a position of a screen component in an interior of a vehicle is presented. Furthermore, a data processing apparatus and a screen system for an interior of a vehicle are explained.
VEHICLE INTERIOR MEMBER AND VEHICLE INTERIOR MEMBER MANUFACTURING METHOD
Provided is a vehicle interior member that can suppress the reflection of light to the outside, and that can reduce glare from whatever angle a passenger views the interior member. A cross-section of a groove 6 formed in a vehicle interior member 4 is substantially V-shaped, and is constituted by two flat surfaces, a first reflection surface 7 and a second reflection surface 8. The groove 6 has a groove angle θ of 32 degrees, and the reflectance at a light receiving surface 5 is no more than 2.0%.
Head up display
