Cockpit Multi-Screen Display Integration With Eye-Tracking Transfer
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In-vehicle display devices serving different functions often require separate hosts, leading to complex wiring and operational inconvenience, maintenance difficulty, and information transfer challenges.
Innovation Solution
A multi-screen cockpit display system with a first display device for the driver, a second display device for the passenger, and head-up display devices, all controlled by a unified control unit, utilizing an eye tracking module to adjust content based on the driver's or passenger's gaze, enabling intuitive information transfer and immersive experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If separate hosts are used for different display devices, then each device can be independently controlled, but wiring becomes more complex and information transfer becomes challenging
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple display devices (instrument panel, head-up display, augmented reality mirror) under a single host system, eliminating the need for separate hosts and reducing wiring complexity while enabling centralized control and seamless information transfer between devices
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple separate hosts are used, then each display function can be independently optimized, but maintenance and repair difficulty increases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
By consolidating multiple display functions under one host, the system reduces the number of components that need maintenance, simplifies troubleshooting, and makes repair more accessible while preserving optimized display performance through integrated control software
3Ease of operation
If traditional dashboards and mirrors are replaced by display devices, then user interface becomes more intuitive, but operational convenience decreases due to complex controls
Solution Approach 1:
The system employs eye tracking technology to automatically detect driver gaze direction and adjust display content without requiring manual input, making the interface more intuitive while eliminating complex control operations
Solution Approach 2:
The eye tracking module provides real-time feedback on driver attention, enabling the system to dynamically adjust display content and privacy modes based on where the driver is looking, creating a more intuitive and adaptive user experience
4Adaptability or versatility
If eye tracking is used to adjust functional icons, then the interface becomes more adaptive, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The eye tracking module continuously monitors driver gaze and provides feedback to the control unit, which automatically adjusts functional icon positions and orientations based on detected eye movements, creating an adaptive interface without requiring complex manual configuration
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Facilitates convenient information exchange between display devices, enhances user interface intuitiveness, and provides a better immersive experience by dynamically adjusting content based on user interaction and gaze direction.
Implementation Method 1
The eye tracking module is disposed corresponding to the driver's seat, and is configured to detect a visual direction of a driver on the driver's seat

AI summary
A multi-screen cockpit display system is suitable for being installed in a cockpit, and includes a first display device, a control unit and a second display device. The first display device is disposed in front of a driver's seat in the cockpit, and is suitable for displaying a first dynamic information. The control unit is electrically connected to the first display device. The control unit is suitable for providing the first dynamic information to the first display device according to an operating state of the cockpit. Another multi-screen cockpit display system with an eye tracking module is also provided.
