A display control device sets a display position of an image to be recognized by a driver of a vehicle as a virtual image such that the image is superimposed on a scenery in front of the vehicle. The display control device calculates a correction amount for correcting the display position at which the image is superimposed on the scenery.

Vehicular display control device

A display control device is used in a vehicle to control a display of a head-up display The display control device acquires external information based on recognition of a traveling environment around the vehicle, and causes the head-up display to display a superimposition content for providing a route guidance to be superimposed on a foreground in a guidance area. Further, the display control device causes the head-up display to end a display of the superimposition content at a timing based on an end determination using at least the external information.

Display control device and display control program product

A display control device mounted on a vehicle: determines whether a caution point exists in front of a vehicle; determines whether the caution point is included in an angle of view of a head-up display mounted on the vehicle; displays a caution content as a superimposed content with the caution point as a superimposition target in response to the caution point being determined to be included in the angle of view; displays the caution content as a non-superimposed content with no superimposition target in response to the caution point being determined to be not included in the angle of view; determines a type of the caution point; displays the caution content associated with the determined type of the caution point.

In a display control device for a vehicle to control a display on a head-up display, when lane change information related to a lane change of the vehicle is acquired from a lane change control unit that controls the lane change of the vehicle, a lane change content indicating an estimated trajectory of the lane change is displayed to be superimposed on a road surface as a superimposition target based on the lane change information.

Display control device and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for display control on head-up display

A display control device controls a superimposed display of a content by a head-up display for a vehicle. The display control device estimates a visible area of a road surface in a foreground included in an angle of view of the head-up display, and an invisible area of the road surface in the foreground included in the angle of view; distinguishes, in a route content, a visible part superimposed in the visible area, an invisible part superimposed in the invisible area, and an overlapping portion between the visible part and the invisible part; and causes the overlapping portion to be displayed in a display mode different from display modes of a visible non-overlapping portion of the visible part out of the overlapping portion and an invisible non-overlapping portion of the invisible part out of the overlapping portion.

An orientation detection device obtains a detection information of a sensor that detects a displacement in the vertical direction occurring in the vehicle, computes a pitch angle of the vehicle on the basis of the detection information, obtains a gradient information indicating a gradient of a road on which the vehicle travels, and corrects a correlation between the detection information used in computation and the pitch angle on the basis of the gradient information.

Orientation detection device and non-transitory computer readable medium

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.

Display control device and non-transitory computer readable medium

A vehicle display control device controls display performed by a head-up display for a vehicle. The head-up display is configured to project an image on a projection member to cause a virtual image to be displayed in superimposed relation on a front view of the vehicle. The vehicle display control device determines a host vehicle situation as a road structure of a road on which a host vehicle is running, and controls to limit or not to limit a superimposed display of the virtual image with respect to a target object on which the virtual image is to be displayed in superimposed relation according to the host vehicle situation determined.

Vehicle display control device

A display control device for controlling a display position of a virtual image displayed and superimposed on a foreground in a vehicle (A), includes: an information acquisition unit for acquiring state information of the vehicle and extracting attitude change information and vibration information of the vehicle from the state information; a position correction unit for correcting a displacement of the display position of the virtual image with respect to the foreground caused by the attitude change of the vehicle, based on the attitude change information; a rough road determination unit for determining whether a road is a rough road, the road on which the vehicle is traveling or scheduled to travel, based on the vibration information; and a correction suppression unit for suppressing a correction control of the display position executed by the position correction unit and continuing to display the virtual image, based on a rough road determination.

Display control device and display control method

An image generation apparatus that generates an image notifying an occupant of a vehicle about a notification target located in a traveling direction of the vehicle, and outputs a virtual image of the image to a head-up display device that displays the virtual image while superimposing the virtual image on a foreground of the vehicle. The image generation apparatus includes: a target information acquisition part that obtains positional information and a moving direction of the notification target; an image generation part that generates a ripple image displayed by the head-up display device while superimposed on a road surface where the notification target is located when the target information acquisition part obtains at least one positional information; and a subject vehicle information acquisition part that obtains a traveling speed. The image generation part stops generation of the ripple image when the traveling speed exceeds a threshold speed specified beforehand.

Image generation apparatus

A vehicle control apparatus is mounted on a vehicle including an emergency stop function to detect an abnormal state of a driver and automatically stop the vehicle. The vehicle control apparatus provides control at a time of stopping the vehicle and includes process execution sections and a process stop section. The process execution sections perform predetermined emergency processes in response to the emergency stop function stopping the vehicle; the emergency processes control instruments mounted on the vehicle and use a battery of the vehicle as a driving power source. The process stop section stepwise stops at least part of the emergency processes performed by the process execution sections based on a predetermined stop sequence.

Vehicle control apparatus

A driving support apparatus includes an image acquisition that acquires a captured image, a calculator that calculates distance and relative speed between a subject vehicle and a following vehicle, and distances and relative speeds between following vehicles; an evaluator that evaluates a degree of risk caused when the subject vehicle changes a lane to the adjacent lane with respect to the following vehicles on a basis of the distances and the relative speeds; and a display controller that creates support information on the degree of risk associated with a lane change in association with road sections based on positions at which the following vehicles are present, and displays a support image in which a created support information is superimposed on the captured image at a corresponding position on the display portion.
