An apparatus and a method provide a four-dimensional effect to a driver and/or passengers of a vehicle. The apparatus includes a first vehicle controller that analyzes data of content played in an electronic device, sets four-dimensional effect information and generates vehicle control information for realizing the four-dimensional effect according to the set four-dimensional effect information, and a second vehicle controller that performs vehicle control based on the vehicle control information in consideration of a driving status of a vehicle.

Provided is a head-up display device which has a virtual image plane shape becoming a part of a concave shape as viewed from the driver side. This head-up display device (30) includes: an image forming unit (10) that displays image information; and a projection optical system including an ocular optical system (5) that displays a virtual image by reflecting light emitted from the image forming unit (10). The ocular optical system (5) includes spherical lenses (51), (52), (53), and a free-form curved surface mirror (56), and is configured by arranging the spherical lenses (51), (52), (53) and the free-form curved surface mirror (56) in this order along the light emission direction.

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.

An operating system includes a display device having at least two planar display regions, which are arranged one behind the other in a viewing direction of an operator and extend transversely to the viewing direction. The operating system can be used to control a plurality of apparatuses of a vehicle.

An imaging unit captures an image of a visual field. A detector detects a position of an eyeball and a sight line of an occupant. A visual point identifier identifies a position of a visual point of the occupant in the visual field, the eye position and the sight line direction. A measuring unit measures a position and a distance of an object included in the image of the visual field. An image generator generates display images based on the eye position and the position and the distance of the object. The display images are displayed on a virtual plane, fused on a fusion plane and displayed as a three-dimensional display on the visual field. The display images are generated to display the three-dimensional image at a given magnification ratio calculated by reducing a geometric display magnification ratio as the distance from the occupant increases.

A head up display superimposes a virtual image on an actual view in accordance with a traveling status of a vehicle. Vehicle information containing a lean of the vehicle in a pitch direction is detected by a first posture sensor, and a lean in a roll direction is detected by a second posture sensor. A controller controls display of video on the basis of the vehicle information. A mirror reflects the video to project the video to a windshield or combiner. A mirror driver changes an angle and/or a position of the mirror. At least one of a display state of the virtual image in a display area for the video or the angle and/or the position of the mirror via the mirror driver is adjusted by the controller on the basis of the lean in the pitch direction and/or the lean in the roll direction.

A volume hologram is arranged inside a transparent portion of a pane of a display device for a vehicle. The display device further includes a light source by which light is coupled into the volume hologram. An image appearing three-dimensional to a human observer can be generated by use of the volume hologram. A camera includes a light-sensitive image sensor to acquire images via an optical unit which is at least partially formed by the transparent portion of the pane.

A vehicle includes: a cluster including a display panel, and a barrier panel disposed adjacent the display panel and having a plurality of barriers; an image obtainer acquiring an image; a steering wheel disposed adjacent the cluster and the image obtainer; and a controller configured to determine whether or not a condition for performing a three-dimensional image mode is satisfied based on a manipulation state of the steering wheel, to control operations of the display panel and the barrier panel to recognize a user's line of sight based on the image of the image obtainer, perform the three-dimensional image mode based on the recognized line of sight of the user when the condition is satisfied, and to control the operations of the display panel and the barrier panel to perform a two-dimensional image mode when the is not satisfied.

A display device includes a first polarizing plate including a first polarization region and a first design region, a second polarizing plate including a second polarization region and a second design region, and a third polarizing plate including a third polarization region. A transmittance of light oscillating in a first direction of the polarization regions is maximized, and the design regions are transparent to light regardless of the oscillation direction of light. The first and second polarizing plates are arranged at a distance from each other along a path of the light, the first direction in the first polarization region and the first direction in the second polarization region are different from each other. The third polarizing plate is arranged such that the first direction in the third polarization region is positioned between the first direction in the first polarization region and the first direction in the second polarization region.
