Movement data characterizing the movement of a vehicle in which electronic smartglasses are used, are sent by a portable apparatus from a data output to the electronic smartglasses for reducing simulator-sickness-induced impairments. The electronic smartglasses display data taking into account the movement data.

Portable device for reducing simulator sickness-induced impairments during the use of electronic augmented reality glasses in a vehicle

Digital content can be viewed in a vehicle without suffering from motion sickness by use of a system which includes a vehicle and data glasses. The vehicle includes a control unit and a plurality of sensors connected to the control unit. The data glasses can be wirelessly connected to the control unit and are intended to display a virtual 3-D integrating the digital content.

Viewing digital content in a vehicle without suffering from motion sickness

While a motor vehicle is travelling, a selected offer of entertainment for a vehicle occupant is output by use of a display device arranged in the motor vehicle. Driving characteristics of the motor vehicle are adapted by a control device of the motor vehicle to the offer of entertainment output at a given moment and the motor vehicle is autonomously controlled in a way corresponding to the adapted driving characteristics.

Method and control device for operating a motor vehicle

Motion sickness of a user occurring when viewing media content by use of data glasses during a journey in a motor vehicle is reduced. Vehicle dynamics data and glasses dynamics data are registered and a displayed perspective is controlled by a control device based on the vehicle dynamics data and the glasses dynamics data. In the displayed perspective, the media content is displayed in a media field which is shown so it is visible through a frame element and an artificial environment is shown adjacent to the frame element. A velocity component of the vehicle dynamics data is represented as movement of the artificial environment and an acceleration component of the vehicle dynamics data is represented by an inclination of the frame element with respect to the media field and a movement component of the glasses dynamics data is represented as a shift of the entire perspective.

Surroundings data, relating to at least one surrounding area in the surroundings of a motor vehicle situated in a field of vision of a vehicle occupant, are obtained by a sensor system of the motor vehicle. At least one piece of information, which needs to be output to the user, is provided by an information source. The information is at least partially overlaid on a display of the surrounding area by a display device with the type of information presentation and/or the position at, and/or the orientation in, which the information presentation is visualized being dependent on the surroundings data.

A planned navigation route of a first motor vehicle is established as a reference navigation route. A second motor vehicle having a planned navigation route which satisfies a prespecified synchronization condition is selected, and a route length of the navigation route of the second motor vehicle is scaled to a route length of the reference navigation route. A route section of the reference navigation route is identified as a synchronizable route section, the route section satisfying a prespecified homogeneity criterion, and a route section of the scaled navigation route is assigned to the synchronizable route section. When the first motor vehicle is on the synchronizable route section and when the second motor vehicle is on the route section of the scaled navigation route assigned to the synchronizable route section, the provided output content which describes an avatar for the second motor vehicle is changed.

A context processing unit receives an environmental signal from a registration unit of a motor vehicle. The environmental signal describes an item of information, independent of a movement direction of the motor vehicle, regarding an event in an environment of the motor vehicle. The event establishes a predetermined thematic context of media content of an output file. The predetermined media content of the output file is changed in dependence on the thematic context of the media content, so that a virtual environment described by the changed media content takes into consideration the information of the event in the environment of the motor vehicle with respect to context. The output file with the changed media content is transmitted to a display unit of an output device which outputs the output file.

The invention relates to a method for operating a virtual reality headset in a vehicle, in which at least an instantaneous orientation of the virtual reality headset is determined by means of an inertial measurement unit arranged on the virtual reality headset, and a corresponding control device. Based thereon and on vehicle localisation data, a virtual perspective of a virtual environment displayed in the virtual reality headset is simulated. Therein, a relative arrangement of the virtual reality headset with respect to the vehicle interior is determined through an optical capture device arranged on the virtual reality headset. Corresponding data from the inertial measurement unit and the optical capture device are fused together to determine a corrected orientation or pose of the virtual reality headset with respect to the vehicle interior for simulating the virtual perspective.

A detection is made as to whether a vehicle occupant seated on a vehicle seat of a seating system of a motor vehicle has put on a pair of electronic data glasses. If the vehicle occupant has put on a pair of electronic data glasses, a check is performed to determine whether a predetermined minimum distance exists between the vehicle seat and an interior component of the motor vehicle. If the minimum distance exists, an adjustment range of the seating system is restricted in such a way that it is not possible to fall below the minimum distance. If the minimum distance does not exist, the minimum distance is established by automatically adjusting the seating system and/or outputting a message relating to the noncompliance with the minimum distance.
