Abstract:
Systems, devices, and methods are provided for package delivery guidance and assistance. A vehicle may comprise one or more sensors. A processing unit of the vehicle may determine, based on vehicle data obtained from the one or more sensors, that the vehicle is in a first state, determine that the first state corresponds to a first sub-task of the plurality of sub-tasks, determine a first graphical interface for performance of the first sub-task, present the first graphical interface on a first display screen of the at vehicle, responsive to additional vehicle data obtained from the one or more sensors indicating that the vehicle is in a second state: determine that the second state corresponds to a second sub-task of the plurality of sub-tasks, and update the first display screen with a second graphical interface that is for performance of the second sub-task.
Abstract:
Provided are a vehicle control device capable of displaying a high quality seamless image without data transmission delay and a difference in image quality between a plurality of displays, and a method thereof. The vehicle control device includes a plurality of different displays installed in a vehicle and a controller generating a first image having a plurality of pieces of first information, generating a second image having a plurality of pieces of second information, merging the first and second images, dividing the merged image into a plurality of images, and displaying the plurality of divided images on a plurality of displays, respectively.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides techniques for dynamic driver attention and event notification management based on the current contextual information about a vehicle, driver attention, and a distraction weight of a notification of an event. A method may include receiving a first contextual information about a motorized vehicle. An indication of the occurrence of a first event may be received. It may be determined that the first event has a first event notification weight that satisfies a first notification threshold based on the first contextual information. As a result, a first notification of the first event may be provided to a user of the motorized vehicle.
Abstract:
In combination meters 1 provided with a display 5 in an instrument panel 2, an instrument device includes left and right turn-signal indication lamps 11a, 11b arranged on the instrument panel 2, and a control unit 12 to display arrow images 17, 18, 19, 20 that indicate a change in lighting state (blinking) of indication lamps (left and right turn-signal indication lamps 11a, 11b) on a screen image on the display 5.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are described for directing attention of an occupant of an automotive vehicle to a viewport. Interaction information is received for monitoring an operator of an automotive vehicle that includes a first viewport as a first source of visual input for the operator and a second viewport as a second source of visual input for the operator. A detection is made that a first attention criterion is met for the first viewport and that a second attention criterion is met for the second viewport. In response to the detection, a determination is made that the first viewport has a higher priority than the second viewport. In response to the determination, first attention information is sent to present a first priority indicator, via a first output device, to identify the first viewport as a higher priority source of visual input for the operator than the second viewport.
Abstract:
An apparatus for displaying information within a vehicle interior includes a surface having a coating for emitting visible light when excited by an ultraviolet (UV) light beam, and a laser projection device (LPD) for generating and directing the UV light beam onto the coating to display information on the surface. The LPD generates one or more UV laser beams, and the coating has one or more light-emitting layers each excitable by a different UV wavelength. Each layer emits a different color of light when excited. The surface is a transparent windshield or lens, or an opaque surface. A method for displaying information within a vehicle interior includes applying a light-emitting coating to a surface in at least one layer, and generating and projecting a UV light beam onto the coating to present information in at least as many colors as there are layers.
Abstract:
Embodiments herein are directed to a transparent steering wheel system for a vehicle that includes a sensor system, a projection system, and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to determine when a plurality of display data displayed on a display device behind a steering wheel is blocked by the steering wheel from a field of view of a driver, determine when a desirable notification is included in the plurality of display data, and when the desirable notification is included and the field of view of the desirable notification for the driver is blocked by the steering wheel, control the projection system to project the desirable notification onto the projection surface of the steering wheel that fully covers the steering wheel such that the steering wheel appears to be transparent when the desirable notification is displayed onto the projection surface.
Abstract:
An electronic device attachable to a vehicle may include an interface, an input device is provided. The electronic device includes a display, and a processor configured to detect that a context related to the vehicle corresponds to a first context based on first information received via the interface, in response to the detection that the context related to the vehicle corresponds to the first context, display a first indication indicating a first function corresponding to the first context from among a plurality of functions of the vehicle, which are controllable by the input device, while displaying the first indication, detect that the context related to the vehicle changed from the first context to a second context based on second information received via the interface, and based on the detection, display a second indication which is changed from the first indication and indicates a second function corresponding to the second context.
Abstract:
A display control system includes a display controller, and a single virtual frame-memory. The display controller controls a plurality of display devices physically separated from each other. The virtual frame-memory stores one or more screen images to be displayed on the plurality of the display devices. The display controller is configured to write, into the virtual frame-memory, a screen image to be displayed on and across at least two of the plurality of the display devices.
Abstract:
To provide an electronic apparatus capable of easily and accurately performing an operation of changing a display. A navigation system displays standard map information in small scale on a liquid crystal display device, and displays status information on movement speed of a vehicle or guidance information on distance and direction to a cross point to turn next on a head-up display device. Only while a contact of a contact body on a surface of a touchpad continues to be detected, first scaled-up map information as the scaled-up standard map information continues to be displayed on the liquid crystal display device instead of the standard map information.
