When the display is controlled by the head-up display used in the vehicle, prior to the display of the superimposed contents to be superimposed and displayed on the specific superimposed object existing in the foreground of the vehicle, the non-superimposed content which has substantially the same meaning as the superposed content to be superimposed and displayed on the foreground in a non-superimposed state on the superimposed object is superimposed and displayed on the foreground.

Display control device, display control method, and non-transitory tangible computer-readable medium therefor

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.

Display control device and display control program product

A locking system includes a communication unit, a key including a first unique information, the key being capable of wirelessly connecting to the communication unit, a mobile device including a second unique information, the mobile device being capable of wirelessly connecting to the communication unit, a first verification unit that verifies the first unique information, a locking device configured to lock and unlock the space, a locking device controller that controls the locking device, a biometric information acquisition unit that acquires biometric information capable of identifying an individual, and a second verification unit that verifies the second unique information and the biometric information. After the first unique information and the second unique information are verified, the biometric information is verified, the space is unlocked when the acquired biometric information matches, and the space is locked or maintained in a locked state when the acquired biometric information does not match.

Locking system

A processing unit executes at least one of a task of a radio tuner, a task of a television tuner, a task of a playback control unit for playback of stored image and sound, a task of an indication unit for indicating image according to image data, a task of a navigation unit for detecting a present position and indicating the detected position on a map, and a task of a route search unit for searching for a route and indicating the searched route on the map, in accordance with a predetermined priority. When execution of multiple tasks by the processing unit exceeds processing performance of the processing unit, a processing suspension unit suspends a task, which satisfies a predetermined condition, among the multiple tasks currently executed by the processing unit, irrespective of a priority of the task.

In-vehicle device and method for controlling the same

When an elevated road and a usual fly-under road are located in a stacked state, two roads are shown in overlapped lines on a display unit of a car navigation system in a subject vehicle. When the subject vehicle travels the fly-under road, the elevated road is shown in a translucent state. Thus, a user of the subject vehicle can recognize a state of the fly-under road the subject vehicle is traveling. In contrast, when the subject vehicle travels the elevated road, the elevated road is shown in a non-translucent state. The elevated road thereby becomes easy to see, so its advancing direction can be easily seen.

Car navigation system

The present invention provides a navigation apparatus capable of distinguishing characters displayed in a display screen. Names of objects to be displayed on a road map are respectively indicated with the characters of the font types corresponding to categories of the objects such as an administrative district, a facility, a natural feature and so on. Accordingly, a user of the navigation apparatus can readily distinguish and recognize the characters showing the various kinds of the objects.

Navigation apparatus

A map display device, which imparts a perspective feeling to a route guidance line so that it can be easily viewed, when buildings and roads are three-dimensionally displayed. A map display device having a control unit for three-dimensionally displaying a map and further three-dimensionally displaying a route guidance line on a road on the map. When the route guidance line is hidden by a building, the control unit displays overlapped portion of the route guidance line in a color different from the color of the portions that are not overlapping. In particular, the control unit draws picture by a semitransparent method in which the color displaying the route guidance line and the color displaying the building are alternately changing with a pixel as a unit on the video RAM (VRAM). In this case, a positional relationship becomes clear between the route guidance line and the building, and the route guidance line can be seen more clearly.
