Vehicle warning system

An image display system includes a display configured to be attached to the head of a user who is an occupant of a vehicle, to display a subject image to be superimposed on a field of vision of the user; a SLAM camera fixed to the display to capture a SLAM image of surroundings of the display; one or more light on-vehicle displays disposed within a vehicle cabin to emit light that serves as an AR marker; and an image controller configured to determine a display position of the subject image based on the SLAM image including the AR marker.

Image display system and image controller

An image display system includes a wearable device including a display configured to display an image in a field of vision of a user and a first sensor configured to detect an absolute movement of the display, and a mobile terminal including a second sensor configured to detect an absolute movement of the vehicle. The image display system further includes an image controller including a computer installed in the mobile terminal to display a subject image on the display in an AR display mode. The image controller is configured to determine a display position of the subject image on the display based at least on the absolute movement of the display detected by the first sensor and the absolute movement of the vehicle detected by the second sensor.

An onboard equipment operating device includes a memory, a processor, a display unit, an operation unit, and an in-cabin camera. The display unit displays information regarding onboard equipment, instruction to the onboard equipment displayed at the display unit is configured to be received as a result of manual operation of the operation unit. The in-cabin camera captures images of a vehicle occupant. The processor is configured to: detect a predetermined action from actions of a face or a body of the vehicle occupant, the actions of the face or the body of the vehicle occupant being imaged by the in-cabin camera; input an instruction corresponding to the predetermined action to the onboard equipment; and display the information regarding the onboard equipment in an operatable state at the display unit, in a case in which the instruction corresponding to the predetermined action has been input to the onboard equipment.

Onboard equipment operating device

A vehicle display control apparatus is equipped with a display device, and a control unit that causes the display device to display a peripheral screen for presenting a driver of an own vehicle with a position of a different vehicle running around the own vehicle with respect to the own vehicle. The control unit is configured to acquire the position of the different vehicle with respect to the own vehicle and a driving manner score as a numerical rating scale representing how good driving manners of the different vehicle are, and display the driving manner score on the peripheral screen in such a manner as to correspond to the position of the different vehicle with respect to the own vehicle.

Vehicle display control apparatus and vehicle display control system

When it is assumed that a vehicle is stopped or parked after its engine was stopped and a predetermined period of time has passed, a cold wind side air mixing door, hot wind side air mixing door, cold wind door and rear cold wind side air mixing door are totally closed and a blower is operated for a predetermined period of time. Accordingly, while a cooler is being dried, drying air containing much offensive smell components, which has passed through the cooler, is discharged outside the vehicle. Therefore, it is unnecessary to provide an exclusively used air passage and an opening and closing door for opening and closing the air passage used for composing an air blowing passage to dry the cooler. By utilizing the existing equipment, air used for drying, which has passed through the cooler, containing much offensive smell components can be discharged outside the vehicle.

Air conditioner for vehicle use

A vehicle air conditioner has an air conditioning unit and an air conditioning control unit. The air conditioning unit has a FACE blowout port, a DEF blowout port, an upper blowout port. The air conditioning control unit estimates an outside windshield temperature and determines an outside dew point temperature. The control unit also controls the upper blowout port to stop blowing or not based on the estimated outside windshield temperature and the outside dew point temperature in a face mode to prevent the windshield from fogging.

Vehicle air conditioner

A control device is provided in a vehicle to control an air conditioning apparatus and thereby to control ventilation and air conditioning of a passenger room of the vehicle. A mobile device communicates with the control device in a parked state of the vehicle to selectively control a first device, which performs ventilation of the passenger room, and a second device, which performs air conditioning of the passenger room, of the air conditioning apparatus in such a manner that at least one of the first device and the second device is selectively operated upon reception of a corresponding operational instruction from the operating device.

Remotely operable air conditioning system for vehicle

A ventilation and deodorization system includes a door lock switching unit for performing a locking and an unlocking of a vehicle door, an air conditioner which introduces outside air of a passenger compartment of the vehicle and blows the introduced outside air into the passenger compartment in a ventilation operation, and a control device for controlling its operation. When a door unlocking request signal is received as a remote operation signal by a receiving unit, the door lock switching unit performs the unlocking of the vehicle door, and the air conditioner performs the ventilation operation. Alternatively, an air cleaning operation is performed instead of the ventilation operation, while inside air of the passenger compartment is cleaned and circulated by an air cleaning device. Thus, the ventilation operation or the air cleaning operation can be performed while a battery consumption amount can be reduced.

Vehicle ventilation and deodorization system

In an initial stage of a cool down operation of a vehicle air conditioner, a rapid cooling operation is performed while cool air is directly blown to a passenger from direct air outlets. In a later stage of the cool down operation of the vehicle air conditioner, a temperature of an inner wall portion of a passenger compartment is reduced while cool air is indirectly supplied to the passenger of the passenger compartment from the indirect air outlet. Accordingly, cool air can be locally blown to the passenger in the initial stage, and cool air can be supplied to the entire passenger compartment while restricting an adverse effect due to heat radiation of the inner wall portion in the later stage. Thus, operation performance of the air conditioner can be improved while comfortable air conditioning feeling can be given to the passenger in the passenger compartment.
