Visualization system and visualization method for a vehicle

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a visualization system (100) for a vehicle (10), comprising:- at least one downward-facing display module (110) arranged on an inner side of a vehicle roof;- an environmental sensor system (120) configured to detect an exterior area of the vehicle (10) and to provide corresponding detection data; and- a control module (130) configured to control the at least one display module (110) based on the detection data of the environmental sensor system (120) in order to display virtual reality content and / or augmented reality content on the at least one display module (110).

Claims

[1] Visualization system (100) for a vehicle (10), comprising: - at least one downward-facing display module (110) arranged on an inner side of a vehicle roof; - an environmental sensor system (120) configured to detect an exterior area of the vehicle (10) and to provide corresponding detection data; and - a control module (130) configured to control the at least one display module (110) based on the detection data of the environmental sensor system (120) in order to display virtual reality content and / or augmented reality content on the at least one display module (110). [2] Visualization system (100) according to claim 1, wherein the virtual reality content and / or augmented reality content comprises a sky region with one or more celestial objects (20, 30). [3] Visualization system (100) according to claim 2, wherein the control module (130) is configured to control the at least one display module (110) such that: - the display of the one or more celestial objects (20, 30) is based on the detection data of the environmental sensor system (120); or - the display of the one or more celestial objects (20, 30) is based on external information received by a central unit. [4] Visualization system (100) according to claim 2 or 3, wherein the control module (130) is configured to control the at least one display module (110) such that the display of the one or more celestial objects (20, 30) is carried out according to a vehicle position and / or vehicle orientation and is dynamically adapted according to the vehicle position and / or vehicle orientation. [5] Visualization system (100) according to one of claims 2 to 4, wherein the control module (130) is configured to control the at least one display module (110) such that the display of the one or more celestial objects (20, 30) is carried out based on the detection data of the environmental sensor system (120) such that it is visually recognizable whether a direct view of the one or more celestial objects (20, 30) is obstructed by objects in the exterior of the vehicle (10) or not. [6] Visualization system (100) according to one of claims 2 to 5, further comprising an interior sensor system which is configured to detect at least one vehicle occupant and to provide corresponding detection data, wherein the visualization system (100) is configured to determine a viewing direction of the at least one vehicle occupant based on the detection data of the interior sensor system, and wherein the control module (130) is configured to control the at least one display module (110) such that the display of the one or more celestial objects (20, 30) is based on the viewing direction of the at least one vehicle occupant. [7] Visualization system (100) according to one of claims 1 to 6, wherein: - the at least one display module (110) is arranged in a line of sight of at least one vehicle occupant; and / or - the at least one display module (110) is attached to the inside of the vehicle roof, so that the at least one display module (110) is directed downwards; and / or - the at least one display module (110) is curved, in particular corresponding to a curvature of the vehicle roof; and / or - the at least one display module (110) is oriented substantially horizontally; and / or - that at least one display module (110) is integrated into a panoramic roof or forms the panoramic roof. [8] Vehicle (10), in particular a motor vehicle, comprising the visualization system (100) according to one of claims 1 to 7. [9] A visualization method (400) for a vehicle (10) having a downward-facing display module (110) arranged on an inner side of a vehicle roof, the visualization method (400) comprising: - detecting (410), by an environmental sensor system (120), an exterior area of the vehicle (10) and providing corresponding detection data; and - controlling (420), by a control module (130), the at least one display module (110) based on the detection data of the environmental sensors in order to display virtual reality content and / or augmented reality content on the at least one display module (110). [10] A storage medium comprising a software program adapted to be executed on one or more processors and thereby to carry out the visualization method (400) according to claim 9.
