Vehicle Driver Assist Interface for Real-Time Trajectory Guidance
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional driver assist systems fail to effectively convey the dynamic and complex nature of vehicle operation recommendations, such as turn radius, acceleration, and deceleration, to drivers in a way that is easily understandable and relatable to their current actions.
Innovation Solution
A system comprising a processor, memory, monitoring, analysis, and interactive display components that generates real-time graphical user interfaces to visually represent a driver's current operation compared to recommended operations, allowing for immediate understanding and engagement.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If conventional systems use images, text, audio alerts and sounds to convey recommendations, then information can be transmitted to the driver, but the dynamic nature and complexity of recommendations cannot be adequately conveyed
Solution Approach 1:
The system creates a visual copy of the recommended vehicle operation trajectory and overlays it with the actual vehicle operation trajectory. This graphical representation allows the driver to immediately understand the recommendation without processing complex text or audio information, while the overlay technique efficiently conveys the relationship between recommended and actual operations in a single visual display.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transforms abstract recommendation data into a two-dimensional visual representation on a display screen. By plotting both the recommended trajectory and actual trajectory on the same graphical plane with multiple dimensions (position, time, speed), the system enables the driver to comprehend complex dynamic recommendations through spatial visualization rather than linear information presentation.
2Measurement precision
If recommendations are updated in real-time to reflect changing vehicle operation, then accuracy is improved, but the driver's ability to quickly understand changing recommendations is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system continuously monitors actual vehicle operation through sensors and feedback loops, comparing it against recommended operations in real-time. The graphical display automatically updates to show both trajectories, providing the driver with immediate visual feedback on how their operation compares to recommendations without requiring them to process multiple changing data streams separately.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent merges the display of recommended trajectory and actual trajectory into a single unified graphical interface. By combining multiple information streams (recommended path, actual path, deviations) into one visual representation, the system maintains real-time accuracy while allowing the driver to understand the relationship between recommended and actual operations at a glance.
3Productivity
If detailed recommendations are provided to improve driver operation, then operational effectiveness is improved, but driver engagement is reduced due to information overload
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of presenting multiple separate data streams and detailed numerical recommendations, the system creates a single visual copy of the recommended trajectory overlaid with the actual trajectory. This graphical representation conveys detailed operational guidance in an intuitively understandable format that maintains driver engagement while improving operational effectiveness.
