Vehicle Display Interface for Unified Driver Assistance Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing vehicle systems lack intuitive and integrated operability for driver assistance functions, requiring separate and complex operations for different vehicle functions, complicating user interaction.
Innovation Solution
An onboard device and control program that integrates a display control section, reception section, and execution section to enable intuitive operations on a peripheral monitoring display for vehicle functions, allowing operations such as driver assistance and autonomous driving through touch and slide gestures on a vehicle's display.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If separate devices and methods are used for different vehicle functions, then each function can be controlled independently, but the operability becomes complicated and user interaction becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple vehicle function controls into a single peripheral monitoring display. The display control section integrates peripheral monitoring images with ego vehicle images, and the reception section receives operations for multiple functions (driver assistance, autonomous driving, settings) through this unified interface, eliminating the need for separate devices and simplifying user interaction
Solution Approach 2:
The peripheral monitoring display is designed to serve multiple functions simultaneously. It displays peripheral monitoring information while also enabling operations for driver assistance functions, autonomous driving functions, and function settings. The execution section processes various types of operations (touch, slide gestures) to execute different vehicle functions through this single universal interface
2Ease of operation
If multiple separate interfaces are provided for different vehicle functions, then each function can be accessed independently, but the number of operations required increases and user convenience decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines access to multiple vehicle functions into a single peripheral monitoring display interface. Users can access driver assistance functions, autonomous driving functions, and settings all through this one display, eliminating the need to switch between multiple separate interfaces and reducing the time required to access different functions
Solution Approach 2:
The display control section prepares the peripheral monitoring display to show relevant information and control options in advance. When the display shows the ego vehicle image with peripheral monitoring, the system is already positioned to receive operations for various functions, eliminating the need for users to navigate through multiple menus or interfaces to access different controls

AI summary
An onboard device including: a display control section that, based on a detection result of a detection section for detecting targets at a periphery of a vehicle, displays an ego vehicle image depicting the vehicle together with a peripheral monitoring image on a display provided to the vehicle; a reception section that receives an operation of an occupant of the vehicle on the display; and an execution section that executes a predetermined processing related to a function of the vehicle at each section of the vehicle according to the operation received by the reception section.
