Abstract:
(Object) To display the change of the route in a manner that can be easily recognized by an occupant of a movable body, when the route information including a change in the route is displayed in a superimposed manner on the surrounding environment. (Means of Achieving the object) An image control apparatus installed in a movable body, includes a controller configured to generate data of an image to be displayed so as to appear to be superimposed on a predetermined position including at least a road surface in a direction along which the movable body moves, as viewed from an occupant of the movable body, wherein the controller generates a pattern to be displayed at the predetermined position, upon detecting that a change in a route is included in a planned path that is generated in advance, and that a change position of the route is further away than the predetermined position as viewed from the occupant, and the pattern is displayed in such a manner that an actual position of the change position of the route appears to be positioned on an extended line of at least part of information forming the pattern, as viewed from the occupant.
Abstract:
(Object) To provide information to the occupant of the movable body by which the occupant can feel a higher sense of security, when there is a change in the travel path. (Means of Achieving the object) A control apparatus includes an image data generator configured to generate image data of an image displayed so as to appear to be superimposed on a surrounding environment as viewed from an occupant of a movable body that autonomously travels based on a planned path that is defined in advance, wherein a display mode of the image is changed based on information indicating a change in at least one of a travelling direction of the movable body and external information of the movable body.
Abstract:
(Object) It is possible to make a display area less perceivable to a user. (Means of Achieving the Object) An HUD device (i.e., the HUD device of the practical example 1) is a display device for displaying in a display area a virtual image of at least a part of a sign that moves. The display device includes a displaying system configured to form an image of the sign that moves with light in a region including an image region (i.e., a predetermined region), and to irradiate a front windshield (i.e., transparent/reflective member) with light that forms at least a part of the image, the part of which is in the image region, such that the virtual image of the at least a part of the image is displayed in the display area. The displaying system includes an FPGA 600 (i.e., control device) that is capable of controlling a characteristic of the image in accordance with position of the virtual image relative to the display area. The image sign to be displayed is an indicator mark indicating the presence and location of an object not being viewable through the front display windshield.
Abstract:
A display apparatus (1) according to an aspect of the present disclosure displays a virtual image of a projection image. The display apparatus includes an image generation unit (26) configured to generate the projection image including a predetermined image obtained based on a traffic sign, and a direction indication unit (25) configured to output either an indication direction in which a target path, to which the traffic sign is applied, is present or an indication direction in which the traffic sign is present, based on a position of the traffic sign and a position of a path in front of a moving body, and to cause the image generation unit to generate the projection image including the indication direction.

Abstract:
An information providing system installed in a moving body is disclosed. The information providing system includes a projector; and a controller configured to control the projector, wherein the controller includes an external information acquiring unit configured to acquire external information outside the moving body, a target recognition unit configured to recognize one or more targets based on the external information, an estimating unit configured to estimate rankings of the one or more recognized targets, and a projection control unit configured to cause the projector to project an image outside the moving body, the image representing notification to a desired target, the desired target being specified, from among the one or more recognized targets, in accordance with the rankings of the one or more recognized targets.
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus for displaying, on a display apparatus, a screen that includes items selectable by a user is provided. The information processing apparatus includes a display control unit configured to display, in response to detection of a predetermined motion of the user relative to an input apparatus when a first screen is displayed, a second screen based on a position at which the user is looking on the first screen, and a receiving unit configured to receive an input to the second screen, based on an operation performed by the user on the input apparatus. The objective is to allow a user to relatively readily perform an operation.
Abstract:
An image control apparatus includes an image generator that generates image data for displaying information indicating a direction or a position in a display region on a mobile body. The image generator generates the image data such that, from a viewpoint of an occupant of the mobile body, information indicating a left-hand direction or a left-side position is displayed to the left of information indicating a right-hand direction or a right-side position, and a position where the information indicating the left-hand direction or the left-side position is displayed and a position where the information indicating the right-hand direction or the right-side position is displayed are arranged along the lateral direction of the display region.
Abstract:
An HUD apparatus is configured to irradiate light for forming an image on a transmissive reflector provided in a movable body, and to display a virtual image in a display area to overlap the virtual image with scenery outside the movable body. A given distance range in the scenery from a reference point that is set in the movable body is included in the display area, and a difference between a first convergence angle to a target object (e.g., road surface) that is present in the given distance range and a second convergence angle to the virtual image displayed in the display area is at most one degree.
Abstract:
(Object) To provide an image control technology that enables an occupant of a moving body to recognize the difference between the present traveling speed and other speed related information, with good visibility. (Means of Achieving the object) An image control apparatus installed in a movable body, includes a controller configured to generate data of a display image in which a present moving speed of the movable body is indicated together with other speed related information, and change a display mode related to a difference between the present moving speed and a speed indicated by the other speed related information, upon detecting that a predetermined condition is satisfied.
