An automated driving system with assistance for a driver in performing a non-driving activity includes an assistance device configured to assist the driver in performing the non-driving activity. The automated driving system, in a first operating state controls the vehicle in an automated manner, and in a second operating state hands over control of the vehicle to the driver. The assistance device is configured to assist the driver in performing the non-driving activity if the automated driving system switches from the first operating state to the second operating state.

System for automated driving with assistance for a driver in performing a non-driving activity

A method for guiding a motor vehicle occupied by a driver during a vehicle journey in an automated manner by a driver assistance system includes: displaying, on an optical display apparatus of the driver assistance system, to the driver information from the driver assistance system relevant to the journey; and displaying the information relevant to the journey on the optical display apparatus by a plurality of different display pages assigned to different information classes. The display pages are displayed sequentially and in a stipulated order.

Method for the automated guiding of a motor vehicle occupied by a driver and for the information of the driver

An interface for data transmission in a motor vehicle between a mobile data device () having a computation unit and an information display () in the motor vehicle is provided. The mobile data device () and the central information display () can be connected to one another by wireless communication, and the screen content of the mobile data device () can be presented on the information display (). Provision is made for the computation unit of the mobile data device () to be set up to use the wireless communication to actuate the information display () in the motor vehicle by video signals, and for the computation unit of the information display () to be set up to present the video signals received from the mobile data device ().

Interface for wireless data transmission in a motor vehicle, and computer program product

In a night vision system with which an image recording unit records the image of the surroundings of a motor vehicle, the recorded image is displayed by means of a display, wherein the position of the image recording device () is changed according to the driving situation.

System and method for detecting the surrounding environment of a motor vehicle using as adjustable infrared night vision system

A device for displaying a plurality of detectable variable quantities of a motor vehicle that are in a ratio to one another, each quantity represented by a band, and the bands being arranged relative to one another such that they form a variable geometric figure. The bands have a variable length depending on the deviation from an optimum ratio of the quantities to one another, and intersect in an intersection area.

Device for displaying a plurality of detectable variable quantities

The invention relates to a system in a vehicle for assisting a driver of a vehicle when reversing, having at least one sensor unit which detects objects within the surroundings to the rear of the vehicle, having a computing unit which is connected to the sensor unit and has the purpose of processing the detected objects, and having an actuator unit which is connected to the computing unit. According to the invention, the computing unit generates a virtual driving tube within which the vehicle can move backward without colliding with the detected objects. The actuator unit is a steering actuator which is actuated by the computing unit and has the purpose of outputting haptic information which informs the driver of the vehicle about the steering direction, which is to be adopted next for reverse travel within the driving tube.

Reversing assistant

An arrangement has a computing unit which is connected to a memory unit, an operator control device and a display device. The computing unit displays, on the display device, a first operator control display which is read out from the memory unit and is composed of at least two display elements, evaluates an operator control operation which is performed by means of the operator control device, and reads out a second operator control display, assigned to the operator control operation, from the memory device. In order to improve the ability to perceive the relationship between the first and the second operator control displays, at least one of the display elements from the first operator control display is also contained in the second operator control display (), the at least one display element in the first operator control display differing from the second operator control display in at least one of its display properties. The computing unit performs a gradual transformation of the at least one display element from the first operator control display to the second operator control display and displays it.
