[0065] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the embodiments of this application, and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of this application.

[0066] With the continuous development of intelligent cockpits in automobiles, more and more information needs to be displayed, leading to the development of image source components towards large and multi-screen designs. Too many or excessively large screens will occupy a significant amount of interior space, potentially encroaching on space needed for other functional hardware, and also reducing user comfort. Interactive floating display technology can project the images from the in-vehicle screens into the air, thus saving interior space, and more and more users prefer to buy vehicles that support this technology. However, currently, interactive floating display technology can only display images from the vehicle's built-in screens. Users cannot project the images from external devices into the air, limiting the range of projected images and reducing user comfort. This has become a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. To solve this problem, this application provides an image generation module 10 (such as... Figure 1 As shown), image projection device 100 (e.g.) Figure 9 As shown), image display system 1000 (e.g.) Figure 12 (as shown), control method, computer-readable storage medium (such as...) Figure 13 (as shown), door 30 (as shown) Figure 12 (as shown) and 10,000 vehicles (such as) Figure 14 (As shown).

[0067] Please see Figure 1This application provides an image generation module 10, which includes a accommodating member 11 and an image source component 12. The accommodating member 11 has an accommodating space 111 for accommodating an external image source device, which provides a first image. The image source component 12 is disposed on or to one side of the accommodating member 11 and provides a second image. The image generation module 10 has a first state and a second state; in the first state, the accommodating space 111 accommodates the external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is configured to project the first image; in the second state, the image generation module 10 is configured to project the second image.

[0068] Specifically, the image generation module 10 is a module used to provide an image source for devices or systems related to image display functions within a vehicle. In this application, the image generation module 10 includes a housing 11 and an image source component 12. The housing 11 can accommodate external image source devices, such as mobile phones, tablets, e-readers, and other external image source devices with display functions. The image source component 12 is a built-in image source component 12 of the vehicle. When the user needs to display the image on the built-in image source component 12 of the vehicle as an image source, the housing 11 does not accommodate external image source devices.

[0069] More specifically, the accommodating member 11 is provided with an accommodating space 111, which is used to accommodate an external image source device. Since the accommodating space 111 is used to accommodate an external image source device, the size of the accommodating space 111 (i.e., the length, width, and height of the accommodating space 111) can be adjusted according to actual needs to ensure that the accommodating space 111 can successfully accommodate the external image source device. The bottom surface of the accommodating space 111 needs to be set to a transparent bottom surface to ensure that when the external image source device is placed in the accommodating space 111, the first image displayed by the external image source device can be seen through the bottom surface of the accommodating space 111.

[0070] More specifically, the image source component 12 is disposed on or to one side of the accommodating member 11. The image generation module 10 has a first state in which a first image provided by an external image source device is used as the image source, and a second state in which a second image provided by the vehicle-built-in image source component 12 is used as the image source. When the image generation module 10 is in the first state, the external image source device is accommodated in the accommodating space 111, and the image generation module 10 is used to project a first image for the user to view from the external image source device. When the image generation module 10 is in the second state, the image generation module 10 is used to project a second image for the user to view from the vehicle-built-in image source component 12.

[0071] It is understood that the image generation module 10 provided in this application includes a accommodating component 11 and an image source component 12. The accommodating component 11 has an accommodating space 111 capable of accommodating an external image source device, which can provide a first viewable image to the user. The image source component 12 is disposed on or to one side of the accommodating component 11. The image source component 12 is an internal component of the vehicle and can provide a second image to the user. The image generation module 10 has a first state and a second state. In the first state, the accommodating space 111 accommodates an external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is configured to project the first image. In the second state, the accommodating space 111 does not accommodate an external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is configured to project the second image. This application allows users to freely select an external image source device as the image source of the image generation module 10, or to select the vehicle's built-in image source component 12 as the image source of the image generation module 10, thus broadening the user's selection range of image images and enhancing the richness of the floating display content.

[0072] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 1 The accommodating member 11 also has a light-transmitting area 112 on one side of the accommodating space 111, which is used to transmit the first image.

[0073] It is understood that the light-transmitting area 112 refers to an area that allows light or images to pass through, and the light-transmitting area 112 may be made of a transparent material (such as glass or transparent plastic). Through the light-transmitting area 112, the user can see the interior of the accommodating space 111. Therefore, when an external image source device is housed in the accommodating space 111, the light-transmitting area 112 is used to transmit the first image from the external image source device to ensure that the user can normally view the first image from the external image source device.

[0074] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The image source component 12 is movable relative to the accommodating member 11 to switch between a first position away from the light-transmitting area and a second position facing the light-transmitting area of ​​112; in the first state, the image source component 12 is located in the first position; in the second state, the image source component 12 is located in the second position.

[0075] Furthermore, please combine Figure 2 When the image generation module 10 is in the first state, the image source component 12 located in the first position will not obstruct the first image projected by the external image source device. Please also consider... Figure 3When the image generation module 10 is in the second state, the second image projected by the image source component 12 located in the second position will be projected along the same path as the first image when the image generation module 10 is in the first state. The image source component 12 can switch between the first position and the second position by moving relative to the accommodating member 11, thus broadening the user's selection range of image screens. The user can freely choose the image source used for viewing the projection by switching the position of the image source component 12.

[0076] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The image source component 12 is movable relative to the accommodating member 11 to switch between a first position away from the light-transmitting area 112 and a second position facing the light-transmitting area 112; the image source component 12 is disposed on the side of the accommodating member 11 where the light-transmitting area 112 is provided, the first position corresponds to the position where the image source component 12 opens the light-transmitting area 112, and the second position corresponds to the position where the image source component 12 blocks the light-transmitting area 112.

[0077] Furthermore, the image source component 12 can move on the receiving member 11, that is, the image source component 12 can move relative to the receiving member 11 via a track, slide rail or other moving device, thereby switching between a first position and a second position. Through the movement of the image source component 12, this embodiment can achieve the blocking and opening of the light-transmitting area 112, thereby controlling the passage of light or images. When the image source component 12 is in the first position, the arrangement of the image source component 12 and the light-transmitting area 112 ensures that the light-transmitting area 112 is in an open state, allowing light or images to pass through the light-transmitting area 112, at which time the light-transmitting area 112 is visible or unobstructed. When the image source component 12 moves to the second position, the image source component 12 blocks the light-transmitting area 112, preventing light or images from passing through the light-transmitting area 112. The second position is used to close the light-transmitting area 112 or prevent display through the light-transmitting area 112. The image source component 12 can move relative to the accommodating member 11 and switch between a first position and a second position, thus broadening the user's selection range of image screens. The user can freely choose the image source used for viewing the projection by switching the position of the image source component 12.

[0078] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The image source component 12 is movable relative to the accommodating member 11 to switch between a first position away from the light-transmitting area 112 and a second position facing the light-transmitting area 112; the image source component 12 is disposed on the accommodating member 11, the first position corresponds to the position where the image source component 12 is located outside the accommodating space 111, and the second position corresponds to the position where the image source component 12 is located inside the accommodating space 111, and the light-transmitting area 112 is also used to transmit the second image.

[0079] Furthermore, compared to the embodiments described above, the image source component 12 can be disposed on the side of the accommodating member 11 where the light-transmitting area 112 is provided, or it can be disposed on the accommodating member 11. The image source component 12 can switch between a first position and a second position by moving relative to the accommodating member 11, broadening the user's selection range for the image screen. The user can freely choose the image source used for viewing the projection by switching the position of the image source component 12. At the same time, the space inside the vehicle is relatively narrow, but the image source component 12 in this embodiment has a more flexible placement position, and when the image generation module 10 is installed inside the vehicle, more placement positions can be selected. This embodiment improves the flexibility of the placement position selection of the image generation module 10.

[0080] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The image source component 12 is disposed on the side of the accommodating member 11 where the accommodating space 111 is provided, and the light-transmitting area 112 is also used to transmit the second image; in the second state, the accommodating space 111 does not accommodate an external image source device.

[0081] In other words, when the image source component 12 is positioned on the side of the accommodating member 11 with the accommodating space 111, the light-transmitting area 112 can also be used to transmit the second image from the image source component 12, at which point the image source component 12 no longer needs to move back and forth. In the second state, the accommodating space 111 does not accommodate an external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is used to display the image from the image source component 12 to the user. The light-transmitting area 112 ensures that the second image passes through the light-transmitting area 112 normally and is projected, ensuring that the user can view the projected image normally.

[0082] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 4 The image generation module 10 also includes a guide 13, which is connected to the receiving member 11 and located on the side of the receiving member 11 closer to the image source component 12, with the image source component 12 disposed on the guide 13. In a first state, the image source component 12 is configured to move to a first position via the guide 13. In a second state, the image source component 12 is configured to move to a second position via the guide 13.

[0083] Specifically, the guide member 13 is connected to the receiving member 11 and located on the side of the receiving member 11 closer to the image source component 12, which is disposed on the guide member 13. When the image generating module 10 is in the first state, the image source component 12 moves to the first position via the guide member 13 to avoid obstructing the first image from the external image source device. The external image source device is housed within the receiving space 111 to project the first image onto the light-transmitting area 112. When the image generating module 10 is in the second state, the image source component 12, capable of displaying the second image, moves to the second position via the guide member 13, and the second image is projected along the same path as the first image when the image generating module 10 is in the first state. The image source component 12 moves relative to the receiving member 11 via the guide member 13, ensuring that the image source component 12 can freely switch between the first and second positions, thus broadening the user's selection range of image images.

[0084] More specifically, the guide 13 can be a slide rail, a guide rail, or a flipping device that can flip the image source component 12 to change the position of the image source component 12.

[0085] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 5 The image generation module 10 also includes a motor 14, which is connected to the guide 13 and is used to provide power to the guide 13 to enable the movement of the image source component 12.

[0086] Understandably, the guide 13 is also connected to a motor 14, which is a device that can convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. The motor 14 can be any type of motor, such as a DC motor, AC motor, stepper motor, or servo motor. The function of the motor 14 is to provide power to the guide 13 so that the image source component 12 set on the guide 13 can move freely on the guide 13, thus broadening the user's selection range of image screens.

[0087] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 5 The image generation module 10 also includes a housing 113 and a light-shielding plate 115. A receiving space 111 is disposed within the housing 113, and the housing 113 has an opening for the receiving space 111. The light-shielding plate 115 is located on the side of the housing 113 where the opening of the receiving space 111 is located, and is movable relative to the receiving space 111 to switch between a third position where the opening of the receiving space 111 is not blocked or partially blocked, and a fourth position where the opening of the receiving space 111 is completely blocked.

[0088] Specifically, the housing 113 is an opaque housing with a light-shielding function. The housing 113 can be made of various metal materials, composite materials, or other opaque materials. The housing 113 protects the entire image generation module 10 from damage due to impact and also blocks external light to prevent interference with the projected image. The opening of the accommodating space 111 is located on the side of the housing 113 away from the image source component 12, ensuring that users can place external image source devices such as mobile phones, tablets, or e-readers into the accommodating space 111 when using the image generation module 10. The light-shielding plate 115 is located on the side of the housing 113 with the opening of the accommodating space 111 and can move relative to the accommodating space 111 to switch between a third position where the opening of the accommodating space 111 is not blocked or partially blocked, and a fourth position where the opening of the accommodating space 111 is completely blocked. This ensures that users can place external image source devices into the accommodating space 111 when selecting external image source devices for image projection. After the external image source device is placed into the accommodating space 111, the light shield 115 can be switched to the fourth position to block external light and prevent the projected image from being interfered with by external light.

[0089] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 5 In the first state, the light-shielding plate 115 is adapted to be in the fourth position.

[0090] In other words, in the first state, complete light blocking is required to achieve the best floating display effect for the projection of the external image source device. However, since the light shield 115 can be manually adjusted by the user, the user can also choose not to completely block the light with the light shield 115, which increases the user's range of options.

[0091] Please see Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the light-shielding plate 115 is provided with a force-bearing member, which is adapted to bear force to move the light-shielding plate 115.

[0092] It is understandable that the force-bearing components on the light shield 115 can be set as bosses 118 or grooves 119, so that users can push and pull the light shield 115. Users can move the light shield 115 conveniently through the bosses 118 or grooves 119, which improves the convenience of users using the image generation module 10.

[0093] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 5 The image generation module 10 also includes a cover plate 114. The cover plate 114 is located on the side of the housing 113 away from the image source assembly 12 and partially covers the accommodating space 111.

[0094] Understandably, the size of the cover plate 114 can be adjusted as needed. However, the cover plate 114 should not be too large, lest the user be unable to place the external image source device into the accommodating space 111. For example, the cover plate 114 can be set to block half the opening area of ​​the accommodating space 111. The cover plate 114 serves to support the light-shielding plate 115, and when the light-shielding plate 115 is in its fourth position, it works in conjunction with the light-shielding plate 115 to completely enclose the accommodating space 111 in a dark environment.

[0095] Understandably, please combine Figure 5 The light shield 115 is moved by a sliding groove on the housing 113.

[0096] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 5 The accommodating component 11 also includes a sensing and identification module 116. The sensing and identification module 116 is embedded in the side wall of the accommodating space 111 and is used to sense whether the accommodating space 111 is empty.

[0097] In other words, a sensing and recognition module 116 is also provided on the side wall of the accommodating space 111 to determine whether an external image source device is located within the accommodating space 111. The sensing and recognition module 116 can be a touch sensing and recognition module 116, an infrared sensing and recognition module 116, or a pressure sensing and recognition module 116, etc. The sensing and recognition module 116 can accurately identify whether an external image source device exists in the accommodating space 111, preventing users from forgetting to remove the external image source device placed in the accommodating space 111 after using the image generation module 10.

[0098] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 6 The accommodating component 11 also includes a prompting component 117, which is disposed on the housing 113 and connected to the sensing and recognition module 116. The prompting component 117 is configured to output a prompting message when the accommodating space 111 is not empty.

[0099] Specifically, the housing 11 also includes a prompting component 117 surrounding the housing 113, which is connected to the sensing and recognition module 116. When the sensing and recognition module 116 detects that an external image source device has been placed into the housing space 111, the prompting component 117 can display a prompt message to the user. For example, when the sensing and recognition module 116 detects that an external image source device has been placed into the housing space 111, the prompting component 117 lights up and issues a voice prompt to remind the user that the image generation module 10 will project an image using the external image source device as the image source. Alternatively, when the user selects to project the first image from the external image source device, the prompting component 117 lights up and issues a voice prompt until the sensing and recognition module 116 detects that an external image source device has been placed into the housing space 111, to remind the user to place the external image source device into the housing space 111. Alternatively, if the user selects the second screen of the image source component 12, the prompt component 117 will light up and issue a voice prompt to remind the user that the image generation module 10 will project the image using the image source component 12 as the image source. Furthermore, the color of the light emitted by the prompt component 117 can be set to different colors in different situations, and the content of the voice prompt can also be set to different content.

[0100] Please see Figure 9 This application provides an image projection device 100, which includes an image generation module 10 and an optical path changing module 20 provided in any of the above embodiments. The optical path changing module 20 is disposed on the side of the image source assembly 12 away from the receiving member 11.

[0101] Understandably, the optical path changing module 20 is used to change the optical path of the light projected by the image generation module 10, thereby scaling the image and ensuring that the image is projected in a position suitable for the user to view.

[0102] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 9 The optical path alteration module 20 includes a first reflector 21 and an optical path scaling unit 22. The first reflector 21 is used to reflect light from the image generation module 10 to the optical path scaling unit 22.

[0103] Specifically, the first reflector 21 needs to be positioned on one side of the image generation module 10. The angle between the plane where the first reflector 21 is located and the plane where the image generation module 10 is located can be set according to the needs of relevant personnel. The first reflector 21 is usually a mirror, and its function is to reflect the light from the image generation module 10 to the optical path scaling part 22. The reflection of the light ensures that the entire optical path scaling module 20 can be installed inside the relatively narrow interior space of the car door.

[0104] For example, the angle between the plane where the first reflector 21 is located and the plane where the image generation module 10 is located can be set to 45°.

[0105] Please see Figure 10 and Figure 11 In some embodiments, the optical path scaling unit 22 includes a second reflector 221, a third reflector 223, and a refractive element 222. The second reflector 221 is used to receive light reflected by the first reflector 21. The refractive element 222 is used to refract light reflected by the second reflector 221. The third reflector 223 is used to receive light reflected by the refractive element 222.

[0106] Specifically, the second reflector 221 is used to receive the image reflected by the first reflector 21 and refract the image reflected by the first reflector 21 onto the refractor 222. Please refer to... Figure 11 The refractive element 222 can be an equivalent negative refractive index flat plate lens. While the refractive index of an equivalent negative refractive index flat plate lens is not negative, it possesses properties similar to negative refractive index materials. When light enters the equivalent negative refractive index flat plate lens, due to the special double-layer periodically orthogonally arranged array structure, the light undergoes two reflections within the lens, reconstructing the light field. This causes the image light to reconverge at a symmetrical position on the other side of the lens, thus achieving medium-free imaging (floating display) functionality. Furthermore, the equivalent negative refractive index flat plate lens can amplify the high-frequency components of light, compensating for information loss due to diffraction limitations in traditional lenses. The third reflector 223 receives the real image refracted by the refractive element 222 and reflects it back, thereby achieving floating image display.

[0107] More specifically, the angles between the plane of the second reflector 221 and the plane of the image generation module 10, the angles between the plane of the refractive element 222 and the plane of the image generation module 10, and the angles between the plane of the third reflector 223 and the plane of the image generation module 10 can all be set according to the needs of relevant personnel, thereby ensuring that the entire optical path changing module 20 can be installed inside the relatively narrow interior space of the car door. For example, the angle between the plane of the second reflector 221 and the plane of the image generation module 10 can be set to 60°. The angle between the plane of the refractive element 222 and the plane of the image generation module 10 can be set to 30°. The angle between the plane of the third reflector 223 and the plane of the image generation module 10 can be set to 60°.

[0108] Please see Figure 10 In some embodiments, at least one of the first reflector 21, the second reflector 221, and the third reflector 223 is provided with a curved mirror.

[0109] Understandably, this application also requires image scaling via reflectors according to user needs. Since the display screens of both the external image source device and the image source component 12 are relatively small, any number of curved mirrors can be provided on the first reflector 21, the second reflector 221, and the third reflector 223 to magnify the projected image. For example, there are three possibilities: any one of the first reflector 21, the second reflector 221, and the third reflector 223 is provided with a curved mirror; any two of the first reflector 21, the second reflector 221, and the third reflector 223 are provided with curved mirrors; or all of the first reflector 21, the second reflector 221, and the third reflector 223 are provided with curved mirrors.

[0110] Please see Figure 11 as well as Figure 12 In some embodiments, this application provides an image display system 1000, which includes a reflective device 50 for reflecting light emitted from an image projection device 100 and an image projection device 100 as described in any of the above embodiments.

[0111] Specifically, the reflective device 50 can be an anti-reflective film layer installed on the car window, which can further reflect the light emitted by the image projection device 100 to ensure that the real image in the light emitted by the image projection device 100 finally falls in a position suitable for passengers inside the car to view. Figure 11 as well as Figure 12 Position A in the diagram represents the position of the real image.

[0112] Please see Figure 12 In some embodiments, the image display system 1000 further includes an interactive sensor 60, which is disposed on one side of the reflective device 50 and is used to acquire user control commands.

[0113] Specifically, the interaction sensor 60 is a sensor used to acquire control commands issued by the user. For example, the interaction sensor 60 can be an infrared interaction sensor 60, which can determine the user's operation gestures by recognizing the posture of the infrared heat source. The user sends control commands to the interaction sensor 60 by making different operation gestures. When the image projection device 100 projects a first image from an external image source device, the user can directly make various operation gestures on the floating display screen projected by the image projection device 100 to achieve human-computer interaction with the external image source device. When the image projection device 100 projects a second image from the image source component 12, the user can directly make various operation gestures on the floating display screen projected by the image projection device 100 to achieve human-computer interaction with the image source component 12.

[0114] In summary, in the image generation module 10, image projection device 100, and image display system 1000 provided in this application, the image generation module 10 includes a accommodating component and an image source component 12, which is movable relative to the accommodating component 11. The accommodating component 11 has an accommodating space 111 for accommodating an external image source device. The user can place the external device into the accommodating space 111. The bottom surface of the accommodating space 111 is a light-transmitting area 112, which is used to display a first image through the external image source device. The image source component 12, used to display a second image, is disposed on one side of the light-transmitting area 112 and is movable relative to the accommodating component 11 to switch between a first position where the light-transmitting area 112 is open and a second position where the light-transmitting area 112 is blocked. When the user uses the image generation module 10 provided in this application, if the user needs to display an image from an external device, the user can place the external device into the accommodating space 111. At this time, the image source component 12 will move relative to the accommodating component 11 until it reaches the first position. If the user needs to display an image from the image source component 12, the image source component 12 will move relative to the receiving member 11 until it reaches the second position. This application enables the user to select an external device or the built-in image source component 12 as the image source, broadening the range of projection screen selection and improving user comfort.

[0115] In some embodiments, this application also provides a control method, which is applied to the image generation module 10 in any of the above embodiments, or to the image projection device 100 in any of the above embodiments, or to the image display system 1000 in any of the above embodiments. The control method includes:

[0116] If the image generation module 10 is currently adapted to the first image generation mode, control the image generation module 10 to be in the first state so that the image generation module 10 projects the first image;

[0117] If the image generation module 10 is currently adapted to the second image generation mode, control the image generation module 10 to be in the second state so that the image generation module 10 projects the second image.

[0118] Specifically, the image generation mode can be determined by user-input control commands. Users can input control commands through gestures, remote control, touchscreen, pressing buttons, or pushing knobs. If the user selects the first mode, the image generation module 10 is adapted to the first mode and will be controlled to enter the first state to project the first image from the external image source device. If the user selects the second mode, the image generation module 10 is adapted to the second mode and will be controlled to enter the second state to project the second image from the image source component 12.

[0119] It is understood that in the control method of the image generation module 10 provided in this application, please refer to... Figure 1 The accommodating member 11 has an accommodating space 111 capable of accommodating an external image source device, which can provide a first viewable image to the user. An image source component 12 is disposed on or to one side of the accommodating member 11. The image source component 12 is an internal component of the vehicle and can provide a second image to the user. The image generation module 10 has a first state and a second state. In the first state, the accommodating space 111 accommodates an external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is configured to project the first image. In the second state, the accommodating space 111 does not accommodate an external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is configured to project the second image. This application allows users to freely choose an external image source device as the image source for the image generation module 10, or they can choose the vehicle's built-in image source component 12 as the image source for the image generation module 10, thus broadening the user's choice of image content and enhancing the richness of the floating display content.

[0120] In some embodiments, the accommodating member 11 includes a housing 113 and a light-shielding plate 115, with an accommodating space 111 disposed within the housing 113, and the housing having an opening for the accommodating space 111; the light-shielding plate 115 is located on the side of the housing 113 with the opening for the accommodating space 111, and is movable relative to the accommodating space 111; the control method further includes:

[0121] When an external image source device is housed in the accommodating space 111, the light shield 115 is moved so that it reaches a fourth position that completely blocks the opening of the accommodating space 111.

[0122] Understandably, the light shield 115 can move relative to the accommodating space 111. When no external image source device is placed in the accommodating space 111, the light shield 115 is located in a third position that partially blocks the opening of the accommodating space 111. For example, the orthographic projection of the light shield 115 in the third position onto the bottom surface of the accommodating space 111 coincides with the cover plate 114, so as to prevent the external image source device from being unable to be placed into the accommodating space 111 due to the obstruction of the light shield 115 when the user needs to place it in the accommodating space 111. After the external image source device is placed in the accommodating space 111, the light shield 115 moves to a fourth position to completely block the opening of the accommodating space 111 with the cover plate 114, thereby forming a dark and sealed space in the accommodating space 111 and preventing external light sources from entering the accommodating space 111 and affecting the first image projected by the external image source device.

[0123] In some embodiments, the image generation module 10 further includes a prompting component 117, and the control method further includes:

[0124] When an external image source device is housed in the accommodating space 111, the control prompting component 117 issues a prompting message.

[0125] In other words, the prompting component 117 can be used to issue a prompting message to the user when the accommodating space 111 contains an external image source device, so as to prompt the user that the external image source device is in a state that can project the first image through the image generation module 10.

[0126] In some embodiments, this application also provides an electronic device, which includes a processor connected to a memory storing a computer program that, when executed by the processor, implements the control method in any of the above embodiments.

[0127] It is understood that in the electronic device provided in this application, please refer to... Figure 1 The accommodating member 11 has an accommodating space 111 capable of accommodating an external image source device, which can provide a first viewable image to the user. An image source component 12 is disposed on or to one side of the accommodating member 11. The image source component 12 is an internal component of the vehicle and can provide a second image to the user. The image generation module 10 has a first state and a second state. In the first state, the accommodating space 111 accommodates an external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is configured to project the first image. In the second state, the accommodating space 111 does not accommodate an external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is configured to project the second image. This application allows users to freely choose an external image source device as the image source for the image generation module 10, or they can choose the vehicle's built-in image source component 12 as the image source for the image generation module 10, thus broadening the user's choice of image content and enhancing the richness of the floating display content.

[0128] Please see Figure 13 In some embodiments, this application also provides a computer-readable storage medium 400 storing a computer program 402 that, when executed by a processor, implements the control method in any of the above embodiments.

[0129] For example, when computer program 402 is executed by processor 40, the following control method is implemented:

[0130] If the image generation module 10 is currently adapted to the first image generation mode, control the image generation module 10 to be in the first state so that the image generation module 10 projects the first image;

[0131] If the image generation module 10 is currently adapted to the second image generation mode, control the image generation module 10 to be in the second state so that the image generation module 10 projects the second image.

[0132] For example, when computer program 402 is executed by processor 40, the following control methods are implemented:

[0133] When an external image source device is housed in the accommodating space 111, the light shield 115 is moved so that it reaches a fourth position that completely blocks the opening of the accommodating space 111.

[0134] For example, when computer program 402 is executed by processor 40, the following control methods can also be implemented:

[0135] When an external image source device is housed in the accommodating space 111, the control prompting component 117 issues a prompting message.

[0136] In summary, regarding the computer-readable storage medium 400 provided in this application, please refer to... Figure 1 The accommodating member 11 has an accommodating space 111 capable of accommodating an external image source device, which can provide a first viewable image to the user. An image source component 12 is disposed on or to one side of the accommodating member 11. The image source component 12 is an internal component of the vehicle and can provide a second image to the user. The image generation module 10 has a first state and a second state. In the first state, the accommodating space 111 accommodates an external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is configured to project the first image. In the second state, the accommodating space 111 does not accommodate an external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is configured to project the second image. This application allows users to freely choose an external image source device as the image source for the image generation module 10, or they can choose the vehicle's built-in image source component 12 as the image source for the image generation module 10, thus broadening the user's choice of image content and enhancing the richness of the floating display content.

[0137] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 12 This application also provides a vehicle door 30, which includes a door body 31, a reflective device 50, and an interactive sensor 60. The door body 31 includes an image projection device 100 from any of the above embodiments. The reflective device 50 covers the window of the vehicle door 30 and is used to reflect light emitted from the image projection device 100.

[0138] It is understandable that, in the door 30 provided in this application, please refer to... Figure 1The accommodating member 11 has an accommodating space 111 capable of accommodating an external image source device, which can provide a first viewable image to the user. An image source component 12 is disposed on or to one side of the accommodating member 11. The image source component 12 is an internal component of the vehicle and can provide a second view to the user. The image generation module 10 has a first state and a second state. In the first state, the accommodating space 111 accommodates an external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is configured to project the first image. In the second state, the accommodating space 111 does not accommodate an external image source device, and the image generation module 10 is configured to project the second image. The reflecting device 50 can reflect the image light stored in the image projection device 100 to the projection position for the user to view. This application allows users to freely choose an external image source device as the image source for the image generation module 10, or they can choose the vehicle's built-in image source component 12 as the image source for the image generation module 10, thus broadening the user's choice of image content and enhancing the richness of the floating display content.

[0139] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 12 The door 30 also includes an interaction sensor 60, which is located on the edge of the window of the door 30 and is used to obtain the user's control commands.

[0140] In other words, the interaction sensor 60 is a sensor used to acquire control commands issued by the user. For example, the interaction sensor 60 can be an infrared interaction sensor 60, which can determine the user's operation gestures by identifying the posture of the infrared heat source. The user sends control commands to the interaction sensor 60 by making different operation gestures. When the image projection device 100 projects a first image from an external image source device, the user can directly make various operation gestures on the floating display screen projected by the image projection device 100 to achieve human-computer interaction with the external image source device. When the image projection device 100 projects a second image from the image source component 12, the user can directly make various operation gestures on the floating display screen projected by the image projection device 100 to achieve human-computer interaction with the image projection device 100.

[0141] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 12 The door body 31 includes a door shell 311, and an image projection device in any of the above embodiments is disposed inside the door shell 311. The door shell 311 has a light outlet 3111. When the image projection device 100 is in use, the reflector 50 is used to reflect the light projected through the light outlet 3111.

[0142] Understandably, since the image projection device 100 is located inside the door body 31, the door shell 311 needs to be provided with at least one light outlet 3111 for emitting light from the projected image. That is, the light outlet 3111 can ensure that the light from the projected image is emitted normally onto the reflector 50.

[0143] In some implementations, please refer to Figure 14 This application also provides a vehicle 10000, including an image generation module 10, an image projection device 100, an image display system 1000, an electronic device, or a door 30 in any of the above embodiments.
