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.

A gesture recognition and control device recognizes a mobile terminal and ascertains a current graphical user interface generated by a display device of the mobile terminal. The gesture recognition and control device provides an output signal describing, as display content, the graphical user interface generated by the display device of the mobile terminal, and transmits the output signal to an output apparatus that can be worn on the head for outputting the display content in a predefined output region in the interior of the motor vehicle as part of augmented reality or virtual reality output by the output apparatus. During the process of outputting the display content, the gesture recognition and control device recognizes a spatial gesture of the user, generates a remote control signal for triggering an operating function of the mobile terminal, and transmits the remote control signal to a control device of the recognized mobile terminal.

Techniques are described for remotely controlling functions of a vehicle without an integrated touchscreen. According to an embodiment, an auxiliary device is provided comprising a display and a processor that executes computer executable components stored in at least one memory. The computer executable component can comprise a feature acquisition component that determines electronic features of the vehicle that are respectively controlled by electromechanical controls of the vehicle, and a display component that displays a graphical user interface via the display wherein the graphical user interface comprises one or more graphical controls for controlling one or more features of the electronic features of the vehicle. The computer executable components further comprising a remote-control component that remotely controls the one or more features via interaction with the one or more graphical controls as rendered via the display.

A projection method includes: determining, based on image information obtained by a sensing apparatus, a display screen orientation of a handheld device; and displaying screen content of the handheld device on a target display screen when it is determined that the display screen orientation of the handheld device meets a preset orientation or notifying the handheld device to display screen content on a target display screen when it is determined that the display screen orientation of the handheld device meets a preset orientation.

An infotainment system may include at least one display mounted to a vehicle seat, a connectivity module that operably couples the infotainment system to at least one mobile device, and a plurality of passenger-focused modules. The at least one display may mirror a display of the at least one mobile device, and the passenger-focused modules may operate in response to the at least one mobile device via the connectivity module.

A compartment in a vehicle can be loaded by an object and an operating device having a user interface configured to output at least one output signal on a part of the user interface. The operating device is designed to cover the compartment. The compartment includes a sensing unit configured to detect the presence of the object when at least a part of the object is loaded into the compartment and the operating device includes control circuitry configured to display a digital image of the object on a part of the user interface.

Techniques are described that facilitate remotely interfacing with a vehicle touchscreen. According to an embodiment, a method is provided comprising determining touch controls included in a GUI configured for displaying on a touchscreen of the vehicle, wherein the touch controls provide for controlling functions of the vehicle based on first interaction with the touch controls as displayed on the touchscreen. The method further comprises generating a representation of the GUI for display via an auxiliary display of the auxiliary device, the representation comprising one or more graphical controls corresponding to one or more touch controls of the touch controls, and enabling remote control of one or more functions of the functions of the vehicle by the auxiliary device based on second interaction with the one or more graphical controls as displayed via the auxiliary display.

A vehicular apparatus is provided in which a plurality of operating systems each perform a display on a display device. The vehicular apparatus includes a controller unit. The controller unit is configured to implement a virtual environment to operate the plurality of operating systems. The controller is further configured to monitor and detect a malfunction in the display performed on the display device in the virtual environment, and to shield a display area where an incorrect display may be performed in response to the malfunction being detected.
