Dual-View In-Vehicle Display for Role-Specific Information
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing in-vehicle display systems fail to adapt content effectively for the different roles of drivers and passengers, leading to inconsistencies in information presentation, which can compromise safety and passenger engagement.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that utilize a dual-view display where the same basic information is shown for both driver and passenger viewing angles, with additional information superimposed differently for each, allowing for role-specific content adaptation, including varying points of interest, size, and relevance, and using touch-sensitive or remote control elements for selection, while maintaining safety and engagement.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If different content is displayed for driver and passenger viewing angles, then information relevance for each role is improved, but display system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display content is segmented into multiple layers: basic information layer (visible to both driver and passenger) and additional information layer (angle-specific content). The control device segments the information presentation by viewing angle, displaying different additional information for driver and passenger perspectives while maintaining a common basic map display.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds the dimension of viewing angle to the display system. By utilizing the spatial dimension of observation angles, the system can present different information content to driver and passenger simultaneously on the same display device, transforming a single-view display into a multi-perspective information system.
2Adaptability or versatility
If more information is displayed to the passenger, then passenger engagement is improved, but driver cognitive load increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display system applies local quality by providing different information densities to different viewers. The passenger receives comprehensive additional information including detailed points of interest and extended map views, while the driver receives a simplified display with essential navigation information only, optimizing each viewer's experience according to their specific needs and cognitive capacity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements partial action by selectively displaying information based on viewing angle. For the driver, only essential navigation information is displayed (partial information), while the passenger receives the full information set including additional points of interest and detailed map data (excessive information relative to driver needs).
