An information provision device and an information provision method. Each of the information provision device and information provision method includes projecting an image light to a light transmission member so as to display a for-driver information image, sensing a relative distance of an object to be detected existing around the mobile object in the direction of travel, detecting a location of a viewpoint of the driver, and changing a position at which an object image indicating the object to be detected is displayed according to a result of the detecting so as to change a perception distance of the driver influenced by a motion parallax of the object image according to the relative distance of the object to be detected in the direction of travel.

In order to provide a transmission type screen having a flat scattered intensity within a predetermined scattering angle, a transmission type screen (50) according to the present invention comprising a first surface (51), and a second surface (52) opposed to the first surface (51), wherein: the first surface (51) is equipped with a microlens array (57) including a plurality of microlenses; the second surface (52) is equipped with a light diffusion surface (60); and a diffusion angle ratio of a diffusion angle of the light diffusion surface (60) relative to a diffusion angle of the microlens array (57) is not less than 0.2 and not more than 0.4.

The present invention relates to a heads up display system for a vehicle interior that includes a light modifying panel configured to cyclically transition between a substantially light transmissive state that facilitates light passage through the light modifying panel and a partially reflective state that facilitates light reflection toward a occupant of a vehicle. The heads up display system also includes a pulsating light source configured to cyclically project an image onto the light modifying panel, and a controller configured to control the pulsating light source and the light modifying panel so that the image is projected onto the light modifying panel while the light modifying panel is in the partially reflective state.

A driver assistance apparatus is provided. The driver assistance apparatus includes a processor determining whether lanes are not identified based on at least one of image information, distance information, sensor information, navigation information, secondary information and adjacent vehicle information, and generating virtual lanes; and an output unit outputting the generated virtual lanes.

An information provision device, information provision method, and a non-transitory recording medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute the information provision method. Each of the information provision device and the information provision method includes projecting an image light to a light transmission member to display a for-driver information image indicating for-driver information to be provided to a driver of a mobile object in a prescribed display area, and displaying at a first point where a normal for-driver information image is displayed a priority for-driver information image in place of the normal for-driver information image, where the displaying includes displaying the normal for-driver information image at a second point different from the first point for at least some of a period during which the priority for-driver information image is displayed at the first point.

A scanning unit scans laser light emitted from a laser light emitting unit. A condensing lens condenses the laser light scanned with the scanning unit and forms a beam. A screen forms the display image thereon upon incidence of the beam formed with the condensing unit. A projection unit projects the display image formed on the screen onto the display member. The screen includes a micromirror array or a microlens array. When the beam is incident on any point of the micromirror array or the microlens array, two or more components forming the micromirror array or the microlens array overlap with a spot of the beam. When a center of the beam and a center of any component among the components are matched, a center of a neighboring component next to the component of interest is outside the spot of the beam.

A head-up display device, a head-up display method and a vehicle are provided. The head-up display device includes: a light source configured to generate a to-be-modulated light beam; a phase spatial light modulator configured to modulate a phase of the to-be-modulated light beam and emit at least two phase-modulated light beams; a reproduction component configured to perform image reproduction on the at least two phase-modulated light beams, so as to generate at least two reproduced images; at least two diffusers configured to receive and diffuse the at least two reproduced images generated by the reproduction component respectively; and a reflector assembly configured to guide the at least two light beams diffused by the at least two diffusers to a projection region, so as to form at least two projection images at different spatial positions.

A multi-layer light alert display apparatus and control method thereof are provided. The apparatus includes: an illumination device configured to illuminate a graphic generating layer, a plurality of graphic generating layers, each graphic generating layer of the plurality of graphic generating layers being configured to generate a graphic, and a controller configured to control the illumination device to allow light to pass through at least one graphic generating layer of the plurality of graphic generating layers so that the light causes a graphic corresponding to the at least one graphic generating layer to be displayed on a surface.

An exemplary mirror positioning method includes tilting a reflective portion of at least one side mirror outward and downward in response to a detection of an object moving outside a passenger cabin of a vehicle. The tilting is independent from a position of the object. Another exemplary mirror positioning method includes tilting a reflective portion of at least one side mirror fully outward and fully downward in response to a detection of an object moving outside a passenger cabin of a vehicle. An exemplary mirror positioning assembly includes a surveillance controller, and a side mirror with a reflective portion that is configured to automatically tilt outward and downward in response to a command from the surveillance controller. The command issued in response to a detection of an object moving outside a passenger cabin of a vehicle, the tilting independent from a position of the object.

A vehicle display system includes a display device, a determiner, and a display controller. The display device is mounted on a vehicle. The determiner is configured to determine whether a person present outside the vehicle enters a blind spot of a driver of the vehicle. The display controller is configured to control, when the person enters the blind spot, the display device to display a warning to the person.
