A driving characteristic determination device includes a hardware processor connected to a memory. The processor detects driving information indicating at least one of driving behavior for a vehicle by a driver, biological information of the driver during driving, and behavior of the vehicle. The processor calculates, on the basis of the driving information, numerical values indicating whether a cognitive function of the driver is high or low. The processor analyzes the numerical values indicating whether the cognitive function is high or low. The numerical values are analyzed as cognitive function characteristics relative to one or more different brain functions. The processor outputs information about an analysis result obtained by the analysis of the numerical values.

Systems and methods directed to recognizing, displaying, identifying, and labeling of an object along a direction of motion of the autonomous along a road is disclosed. In some embodiments, an autonomous vehicle with a light projector is disclosed, where the light projector is on a top surface of an autonomous vehicle. Additionally, in some embodiments, the autonomous vehicle may include an electronic control unit for controlling an operation of the light projector, where the electronic control unit detects whether the autonomous vehicle is turned on. In further embodiments, the electronic control unit receives data of an environmental condition surrounding the autonomous vehicle and receives an upcoming trajectory path of the autonomous vehicle. The electronic control unit may also project a light from the light projector onto a surface of a road indicating an adjusted direction of motion of the autonomous vehicle based on confirmation by the occupant of the identifying and the labeling of the object utilizing one or more autonomous vehicle actions.

A hybrid vehicle comprises an engine, a motor and a meter display device. The hybrid vehicle is configured to display a tachometer on the meter display device in response to selection of a sport mode in a CS mode and to display a power meter on the meter display device irrespective of selection of the sport mode in a CD mode.

A surrounding situation display method of detecting a surrounding situation around a host vehicle with an autonomous driving function and displaying the detected surrounding situation, includes displaying, in a varying display bar that has a prescribed display frame and displays an indication position within the display frame in synchronization with movement of an attention target, the indication position having moved to one endpoint of the varying display bar as a timing when an action of the host vehicle is changed by the autonomous driving function.

A head-up display apparatus is mounted on a vehicle having a plurality of driving modes with different degrees of automation and is configured to display a predetermined content in a predetermined display region provided in front of a driver seat. The head-up display apparatus is configured to display different contents depending on the plurality of driving modes.

A method of operating a display device for a motor vehicle having a plurality of display areas includes providing a plurality of non-contact input operations where a first non-contact input operation of a user is detected and verified by a second non-contact input operation of the user in order to select at least one display element on a first display area, and at least one third non-contact input operation of the user is detected.

When a gearshift of a vehicle is in drive, a video image of a movement state of the vehicle moving forward depending on the rotation of the wheels detected by a wheel rotation sensor is displayed on a monitor. Thereafter, when the gearshift is in neutral, a video image of a movement state of the vehicle moving forward depending on the rotation of the wheels is displayed on the monitor. When the gearshift is in rear where the vehicle moves in a second direction opposite to a first direction, a video image of a movement state of the vehicle moving in the second direction depending on the rotation of the wheels is displayed on the monitor. Thereafter, when the gearshift is in neutral, a video image of a movement state of the vehicle moving in the second direction depending on the rotation of the wheels is displayed on the monitor.

A vehicle control system for a semi-autonomous vehicle is provided. The vehicle control system includes a controller coupled to a plurality of sensors positioned within the vehicle and to a heads-up display (HUD. The controller includes a processor in communication with a memory device. The controller receives sensor data from the plurality of sensors, determines, the vehicle is turning, identifies, based on the sensor data, a candidate turn path for the vehicle, and identifies an actual turn path for the vehicle. The controller also transmits, to one or more automation systems of the vehicle, a control signal that instructs the automation systems to perform a turn-assist function to reduce a determined deviation between the actual turn path and the candidate turn path and to transmit, to the HUD, a control signal that instructs the HUD to display a notification to a driver of the vehicle of the turn-assist function.

A system includes an image sensor disposed in a vehicle cabin, and a reflector disposed in the cabin and positioned to reflect a view of a footwell into a field of view of the image sensor.

A method and a system for enhancing a user experience of an occupant in a vehicle that includes a step of detecting a change of the occupant's line of gaze and a step of outputting a notification, if a change of the occupant's line of gaze is detected or if a predetermined time period has elapsed. The notification is provided on an output device based on the detected occupant's line of gaze.
