[0048] FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the structure of a display device 10 according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

[0049] A display device 10 mounted on a vehicle has an information collection unit 100 for collecting various information about the inside and outside of the vehicle. The information collected in the information collection unit 100 is supplied to the information selection unit 12 . The information selection unit 12 selects information required by the navigation unit 14 and the information processing units 16 , 18 , 20 , and 22 from various information provided by the information collection unit 100 . The information selection unit 12 outputs the selected information to the navigation unit 14 and the information processing units 16 , 18 , 20 , and 22 .

[0050] FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the structure of the information collection unit 100 in detail. The information collection unit 100 includes a GPS receiver 102, a map information i...

[0080] A second embodiment of the present invention is described below. Parts corresponding to each other in the second and first embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed descriptions are omitted for simplicity.

[0081] As shown in FIG. 8 , the apparatus according to the second embodiment differs from the apparatus according to the first embodiment in that a composite screen generating unit 35 includes a highlighting unit 36 ​​. The highlighting unit 36 ​​serves as highlighting means. When the display unit 42 displays a plurality of mutually overlapping windows, the top window may be changed to another one. The highlighting unit 36 ​​determines whether the new top-level window is to display content with a high urgency. That is, the highlighting unit 36 ​​determines whether the display priority of the window is higher than or equal to a predetermined value. The display priority is determined by the display content of the window and the priority c...

[0089] A third embodiment of the present invention is described below. The difference between the third embodiment and the second embodiment is only that a highlight table is used instead of the highlight table described in FIG. 9 .

[0090] According to the highlight table in Fig. 9, an audible warning is provided according to the display priority, but the window highlight mode is not changed. The highlight table in FIG. 11 also provides different window highlight modes according to the display priority.

[0091] Assume that display priorities ranging from 16 to 30 are assigned to windows referring to the highlight table in FIG. 11 . The highlight unit 36 ​​highlights the display frame of the window for ten seconds, and increases the display scale to 150% relative to the display content before the change. When the display priority is 31 or higher, the highlight unit 36 ​​highlights the display frame for ten seconds. In addition, the highlight unit 36 ​​increases the displa...

Abstract

A display apparatus includes a rendering unit, a priority determination unit, and a synthesized screen generation unit. The rendering unit determines necessary virtual screens based on an instruction signal from a navigation unit and information processing units. The priority determination unit determines a display priority based on a display content with respect to each virtual screen. The synthesized screen generation unit generates a synthesized screen to be displayed, by overlapping the determined virtual screens based on the determined display priorities. In this configuration, a certain window in a virtual screen, which has been displayed second or later in the order of overlapping windows, may be newly assigned the highest display priority when a display content in the certain window is changed. This allows the certain window to be displayed topmost and easily viewed by a user.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to display devices. More specifically, the present invention relates to a display device capable of displaying a plurality of pieces of information on a display screen. Background technique [0002] There are well-known display devices for displaying pieces of information on a display screen, such as those provided for car navigation systems. When the display screen displays multiple pieces of information, it takes time to determine which piece of information is currently required. Users may miss the opportunity to identify necessary messages. [0003] The navigation system described in Patent Document 1 displays a detailed map on a display screen when the vehicle is stopped or running at a low speed. When the vehicle is traveling at a specified speed or higher, the system displays a less detailed map to quickly understand map information required during travel. [0004] -Patent Document 1: JP-2667383 B2 [0005] It i...
