A cluster according to an embodiment of the disclosure includes a display and a spatial image panel. The display is installed in the vehicle to output predetermined information as a 2D image. The spatial image panel is configured to output a 3D image in a predetermined space in front. The spatial image panel includes a first lens array, a second lens array, and a refractive medium. The first lens array is disposed adjacent to the display and includes a plurality of first lenses arranged on the same plane. The second lens array is disposed in parallel with the first array so that the first lenses and second lenses overlap each other. The refractive medium is disposed between the first lens array and the second lens array.

A display device of the disclosure is a display device to be mounted on a vehicle, and includes a display panel, a first input unit, a second input unit, a third input unit, and a controller. The first input unit is configured so as to acquire an engine rotation speed. The second input unit is configured so as to acquire a vehicle speed. The third input unit is configured so as to acquire a shift position of a transmission of a vehicle. The controller is configured so that a first image representing the engine rotation speed and one or more second images representing the vehicle speed are combined and a combined image is displayed on the display panel. The controller is configured so that switching of the second images is carried out based on the shift position.

A head up display for a vehicle including a display device configured to output light forming an image, an optical system configured to control a path of the light such that the image is output towards a light transmission region, and a controller configured to generate the image based on a first view and a second view such that a virtual image is produced on a ground surface in the light transmission region, the first view being towards the ground surface, the second view being towards a 3D space above the ground surface, the first view and the second view being based on an eye-box, the ground surface being in front of the vehicle, and the virtual image including a graphic object having a stereoscopic effect, and control the display device to output the image.

A liquid crystal display device which is an image display device for displaying a stereoscopic image includes two correction tables (a nighttime correction table and a daytime correction table) storing correction values corresponding to combinations of a gradation value of a processing target pixel and a gradation value of an adjacent pixel, a correction table selection unit configured to select one of the two correction tables depending on conditions, and gradation value correction units (a right-image gradation value correction unit and a left-image gradation value correction unit) configured to correct the gradation value of the processing target pixel based on the correction table selected by the correction table selection unit.

A decoration panel used as an operation button includes a decoration section between a front translucent member and a rear translucent member, and the decoration section includes a counter reflection layer superposed on a rear face of a light-shield layer. A rear reflection layer is provided between the rear translucent member and a translucent member for illumination. The decoration section is displayed as if floating at an intermediate position in a depth direction. In addition, a surface of the decoration section oriented to the rear side constitutes a counter reflection surface.

The disclosure relates to providing of a display that can provide content through either a virtual image from a heads-up-display or a transparent display physically adhered to the back surface of the heads-up-display. The aspects disclosure herein also relate to providing a detection of an input, and in response to detection, switching the combined display from a first mode to a second mode.

Embodiments are disclosed for display configurations for providing an augmented reality heads up display. In one example, a mirrorless heads up display device includes a display, at least one micro lens array, an optical element comprising a lenticular lens or parallax barrier positioned between the display and the at least one micro lens array, and a display controller comprising a processor and memory storing instructions executable by the processor to control the display to output image light that passes through the lenticular lens or parallax barrier and the at least one micro lens array and impinges on a transparent plane to form a three-dimensional image.

A self-disinfecting passenger control unit (PCU) includes a transparent or translucent molded or injected polycarbonate layer fused between inner and outer films, the outer film divided into contact surfaces (e.g., for passenger control of lights, call buttons, seats, and other functions) and the inner film including embedded traces. Within the molded polycarbonate layer are embedded LED units configured for continuous near-ultraviolet (near-UV) emission (e.g., at or near 405 nm), providing a uniform luminous output directed at the outer film and capable of antiviral/antibacterial irradiation of the high-touch contact surfaces of the outer film. As the continuous near-UV output is both visible by, and safe for, passengers, the LED units may double as backlighting for guiding passengers to the correct contact surface for adjusting a desired cabin function.

An image processing device for a vehicle includes: an acquisition unit acquiring a captured image of a periphery of a vehicle, which is captured by an imaging unit provided in the vehicle; a bird's eye view image generating unit generating a bird's eye view image in which the captured image is projected to a 3D virtual projection plane provided at a side opposite to the vehicle with reference to a ground and separated from the ground with distance from the vehicle; a guide line generating unit generating a guide line indicating a predicted course of the vehicle; a conversion unit converting the guide line into a virtual guide line indicating the predicted course on the virtual projection plane; and a superimposing unit superimposing the virtual guide line on the bird's eye view image.

A vehicle display device includes: a housing unit having an opening facing an eye point side of a vehicle; a decorative member disposed inside the housing unit; a display device configured to display an image inside the housing unit, a drive device configured to move the decorative member in a width direction of the housing unit; and an illumination device operated depending on a movement of the decorative member to irradiate the decorative member with light. The illumination device may have a plurality of light sources arranged along the width direction.
