A projection unit for a field-of-vision display device for a vehicle includes an imaging unit for generating a light beam bundle having a display content; a mirror which is disposed in the beam path of the light beam bundle and has a first adjustment apparatus configured to tilt the mirror for adjustment to different eye-box positions of different users; and a second adjustment apparatus configured to tilt the imaging unit or an additional optical component such that image orientation is maintained. The projection unit is configured to generate a virtual display image in a virtual image plane in the field of vision of the user by outputting the light beam bundle toward a reflective pane, by which the light beam bundle is reflected to the eye-box of the user. The tilt is configured such that the virtual image plane has the same predefined orientation for the different eye-box positions.

The display control device includes a peripheral information acquisition unit that acquires peripheral information around the own vehicle, and a preceding vehicle information acquisition unit that acquires preceding vehicle information of a preceding vehicle traveling in a lane ahead of the own vehicle based on the surrounding information; an adjacent vehicle information acquisition unit that acquires adjacent vehicle information of an adjacent vehicle traveling in an adjacent lane adjacent to the driving lane based on the surrounding information; an effect calculation unit for calculating effect information of the slipstream for the vehicle, and based on the effect information, the effect of the slipstream for the preceding vehicle and the adjacent vehicle is moved toward the rear of the vehicle from the preceding vehicle display unit and the adjacent vehicle display unit; and a display control unit that controls display by animation.

Provided are an image processing method and an image processing device. The image processing method includes generating an image based on viewpoint information of a user; rendering the image based on information about what is in front of the user; and outputting the rendered image using an optical element.

In a head-up display device, projection light P emitted from a projector is reflected by a plurality of reflectors (first reflector, second reflector, third reflector) and then, the projection light P is formed into an image on an image formation unit. Among the projector and the reflectors, the first reflector and the third reflector are housed in a casing. Among the reflectors, the second reflector is disposed at a roof near a windshield of a vehicle.

A head-up display device includes a first mirror having power, a second mirror having power, and a light-blocking member that is provided with an aperture. An image reflective surface has a convergence action. Display light emitted from an image display surface is reflected by the first mirror and the second mirror in this order, passes through the aperture, and reaches the image reflective surface. The image display surface is disposed on the same side as an observer and on a side opposite to the first mirror with respect to luminous flux that travels toward the aperture from the second mirror. The first mirror is a concave mirror. The shape of the cross-section of the second mirror taken along a front-rear direction is a convex shape.

Provided are an autonomous vehicle that displays a virtual driving environment image that replaces an actual driving environment via a display device disposed on a car window area of the autonomous vehicle and a method of operating the autonomous vehicle.

The present invention relates to a long distance imaging head-up display device, which includes an imaging projection module, a reflective diffuser and a concave mirror module, wherein a reflective diffuser is used with a concave mirror module to increase a reflective distance, to thereby obtain a longer optical path distance, so as to project image to a far distance under the same magnification of concave mirror, to reduce visual vertigo and obtain the best visual effects for drivers, to thereby improve driving safety.

An information display device mountable on a vehicle, a vehicle apparatus, and a method for displaying an image to a driver of a vehicle. The information display device includes a controller configured to display information including information display related to a route along which the vehicle is to travel as a virtual image in a display area, and alter properties and characteristics of the information display being displayed in the display area. Alternatively, the controller is configured to display information including information display related to a route along which the vehicle is to travel as a virtual image in a display area, and switch between showing and hiding the information display being displayed in the display area. The vehicle apparatus includes the information display device and a vehicle on which the information display device is mounted.

A head-up display (HUD) mountable on a vehicle includes circuitry. The circuitry is configured to obtain a detection result indicating a position of an object relative to the vehicle, as the vehicle travels; and control a display system to display, based on a detection result, an indicator indicating the position of the object as a virtual image within a display area, while changing an orientation of the indicator according to the position of the object.
