Abstract

Methods and system of rendering a combined display including map and detected objects in environment surrounding a vehicle are provided. A display device or user interface combines active driver assist systems information and guidance data into one presentation of information that is overlaid onto a map. When a vehicle is in manual mode a user can easily and conveniently monitor all relevant driving data via the display device. A vehicle processor may receive map information from a navigation system and object data from vehicle sensors and systems monitoring an environment around a vehicle. This information may be fused together to form an integrated map presentation to be rendered to a display device associated with the vehicle. The map may be shown on an arrangement of multiple-plane surfaces that can resize and reshape to automatically and selectively enhance a level of detail in the presentation.
