Abstract: A subject vehicle runs under a fixed speed travel at a target speed by an auto-cruise system. When it is determined that the subject vehicle cannot arrive at a destination using a present residual fuel quantity, a navigation apparatus is caused to retrieve an eco-route. It is then determined whether the subject vehicle can arrive at the destination by running the eco-route at a fuel-efficient speed which can consume fuel efficiently using the present residual fuel quantity. When it is determined that the subject vehicle can arrive, the fuel-efficient speed is presented as a recommended speed. Thus, a driver of the subject vehicle is urged to designate the fuel-efficient speed as a new target speed for the auto-cruise control.

Abstract translation: 目标车辆通过自动巡航系统以目标速度以固定速度行驶。 当确定本车辆不能使用当前剩余燃料量到达目的地时，导航装置检索生态路线。 然后通过以能够以现有的剩余燃料量高效地消耗燃料的节能速度运行生态路线来确定本车辆是否能到达目的地。 当确定目标车辆可以到达时，以推荐速度呈现节能速度。 因此，促使本车辆的驾驶员将节油速度指定为用于自动巡航控制的新的目标速度。

Abstract: A vehicular display system includes an in-vehicle navigation device and a vehicular meter device. The in-vehicle navigation device includes a display, a navigation data producing device for producing first data that is to be displayed on the display, and a transmitting device for transmitting intermediate data to the vehicular meter device. The vehicular meter device includes a receiving device for receiving the intermediate data from the in-vehicle navigation device and a navigation data display area for displaying second data. A display size changing device for changing the first data into the second data is included in at least one of the in-vehicle navigation device and the vehicular meter device. A display size of the first data is different from the display size of the second data.

Abstract: When an accessory switch of a vehicle is turned on, a TFT display device in an instrument panel is in a magnified display mode, where a navigation image is displayed in a magnified area of a navigation display area with no meter images displayed. A driver is therefore allowed to attentively view the navigation image in order to perform a route set or to change scales of a displayed map. When the driver further turns on an ignition switch, the magnified display mode is switched to a normal display mode. In the normal display mode, a meter display area and a vehicle state display area coexist with the navigation display area in the TFT display device; a navigation image is displayed in a normal area of the navigation display area with a meter image, e.g., a speed meter image, and a warning indicator image displayed simultaneously.

Abstract translation: 当车辆的辅助开关打开时，仪表板中的TFT显示装置处于放大显示模式，导航图像显示在不显示仪表图像的导航显示区域的放大区域中。 因此，驾驶员可以仔细观看导航图像，以执行路线集或改变显示地图的比例。 当驾驶员进一步接通点火开关时，放大显示模式切换到正常显示模式。 在正常显示模式中，在TFT显示装置中，仪表显示区域和车辆状态显示区域与导航显示区域共存; 在导航显示区域的正常区域中显示导航图像，其具有同时显示的仪表图像，例如速度计图像和警告指示图像。

Abstract: When an ignition switch is turned on to display an image on a display apparatus, the display apparatus first displays a needle image of meter images and a warning indicator image. Out of the meter images, the display apparatus displays the needle image for a specified time period (e.g., 0.2 seconds), and then displays a dial image. After displaying the dial image for a specified time period, the display apparatus displays a navigation image. The specified time period may be set to 0.5 through 1.0 second, for example, long enough to visually check or recognize display of the meter image and the warning indicator image. Accordingly, it is possible to visually check the meter image and the warning indicator image while the navigation image is not displayed.

Abstract: A word input support device has a display device and a control circuit. The control circuit classifies an inputted character into multiple character groups, and changes a character group that is displayed according to an intentional operation of a user. If a word desired to be finally inputted is among registered words contained in word dictionary data, characters that can be inputted are narrowed down each time a character is inputted so that changing the display from one character group to another is enhanced. If there is not a character anymore that can be inputted in one character group under display, the word input support device changes its display to another character group, which still has a character that can be inputted.

Abstract: A display device for a vehicle has a display unit that has a meter display area and a navigation display area. The meter display area displays vehicle operation condition, and the navigation display area displays travel route guidance. When a display color changes in the travel route guidance in the navigation display area, color of the vehicle operation condition in the meter display area is also changed so that the color of the travel route guidance becomes more eye-catching than the vehicle operation condition.

Abstract: A steering switch device has an operation member to be operated on a steering wheel of a vehicle. An operation condition of the operation member is controlled by a control unit when the steering wheel is rotated. The operation member is for example a cylindrical member and disposed operable in a rotation manner. When the steering switch is rotated, a rotating operation of the cylindrical operation member is restricted by the control unit. Alternatively, the rotating operation of the operation member is controlled to be loaded. In a case that the operation member is a button member for indicating a direction, a pressing operation of the button member is controlled so as not to be pressed or to be loaded by the control unit when the steering wheel is rotated.
