Abstract

The disclosure includes a system and method for providing a heads-up display in a vehicle for alerting users to roadway objects. The method includes monitoring for a roadway object; detecting the roadway object; generating graphical data configured to emphasize the roadway object on a heads-up display; determining whether a user sees the roadway object; responsive to the user failing to see the roadway object, determining whether the roadway object is critical; and responsive to the roadway object being critical, enhancing a graphic output on the heads-up display to get the user's attention.

Description

technical field [0001] This specification relates to providing an in-vehicle head-up display for alerting a user to objects on the road. In particular, the present specification relates to determining which pavement objects the user has not seen, and providing a heads-up display that includes the unseen pavement objects. Background technique [0002] Drivers often fail to notice traffic signs. This creates a safety hazard and can result in drivers getting traffic tickets or causing accidents. The prior art attempts to solve this problem by displaying traffic signs in a display, such as a liquid crystal display (LCD) on a global positioning system (GPS) device. However, in order to interpret the information on the LCD, the user has to stop paying attention to the road and turn his attention to the LCD, which leads to an additional safety risk. Also, information about traffic signs may be too limited. Other prior art attempts to solve this problem by generating a heads-up ...
