Abstract:
An information notification system includes a transmitting device, a receiving device, a driver related information acquirement section, and a parameter setting section. The transmitting device includes an assist information acquirement section acquiring assist information that assists a driver during driving of a vehicle. The receiving device includes a notification section notifying the driver of the assist information in a tactile manner. The driver related information acquirement section acquires driver related information, which is associated with a perceivability of the driver to the assist information. The parameter setting section sets notification parameter based on the driver related information. The notification section notifies of the assist information to the driver corresponding to the notification parameter.
Abstract:
A display control device controls display of a virtual image which is superimposed on foreground of a vehicle by projection of a display light image from an optical unit to a projection area. The display control device sets a projection position of the display light image which is projected in the projection area on the basis of a relative position of a superimposition object on which the virtual image is superimposed, obtains a measurement information from one vehicle height sensor measuring a displacement in a vertical direction occurring in the vehicle, obtains a gradient information indicating a gradient of a road on which the vehicle travels on the basis of three-dimensional map data, and corrects the projection position of the display light image on the basis of the measurement information and the gradient information.
Abstract:
A vehicle display control device controls a virtual image display performed by a head-up display which superimposes a display image on outside scenery of the host vehicle. The host vehicle is equipped with an automatic control unit which executes an automatic control to the host vehicle. The vehicle display control device includes: a route information acquisition unit that acquires route information related to a scheduled route of the host vehicle, the automatic control unit setting the scheduled route for the host vehicle; and a route image formation unit that forms a route image indicative of the scheduled route based on the route information acquired by the route information acquisition unit. The head-up display projects the route image as the display image in a virtual image display region that is superimposed on a forward traveling road included in the outside scenery.
Abstract:
In an in-vehicle display apparatus, an obstacle recognition circuit recognizes an obstacle around a subject vehicle, and an image output circuit causes a display portion to display an obstacle image indicating the obstacle recognized by the obstacle recognition circuit in a predetermined displayable range at the lower portion on a windshield. This permits the obstacle to be viewed at a position to which a line of sight of the driver to the obstacle image is extended upward.
Abstract:
An operation input device includes a connection body that has two slopes respectively having an angle against an operation panel to form a gable roof shape, and each of the two slopes has a strain body disposed thereon, and an vertex of the roof-shaped slopes is positioned within a preset distance from an outer face of the operation panel, and the strain body, the connection body and a strain gauge are disposed in an inside of a box-shaped operation unit.
Abstract:
A driving support apparatus includes an output unit installed in a steering wheel that outputs steer information about a rotation operation of the steering wheel to the driver through the output unit. By providing the driver with steer information from the output unit in the steering wheel, the driver may recognize the contents of the output of the steer information. Further, since the steer information has a high priority for the driver due to its direct relevance to movement and a travel direction of the vehicle, providing such high priority steer information in an easily-recognizable manner improves driver awareness or readiness to recognize lower-priority information. Thus, information overload by the driver caused by information from various driving support techniques is prevented.
