    Abstract: A system for directing projections within a vehicle includes a projector for producing a projected image. The system also includes a projection directing module in optical communication with the projector for directing the projected image to a predetermined location. The system also includes a projection surface upon which the projected image is projected. The system also includes a controller in electrical communication with the projector and the projection directing module. The controller is programmed to configure the projection directing module to direct the projected image to a projection region of the projection surface. The controller is further programmed to project the projected image on the projection region using the projector and the projection directing module.

    Abstract: An optical arrangement includes at least one pair of displays, each pair having a first display and a second display configured to generate light in a visible spectral range. For each pair of displays, the optical arrangement includes a first polarizer configured to polarize the light incident from the first display, a second polarizer configured to polarize the light incident from the second display. The optical arrangement also includes first and second polarizing beam splitters for each pair of displays. Each polarizing beam splitter is configured to receive the polarized light from the first and second polarizers. Each polarizing beam splitter is also configured to reflect one of an s-polarized component and a p-polarized component of the received polarized light into at least one field of view (FOV) and transmit the other of the s-polarized component and the p-polarized component of the received polarized light into the subject FOV(s).
