Vehicle Display Motion Feedback for Switching Selection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing vehicle operation display devices fail to visually indicate the operation of switching between selectable items, making it difficult for users to perceive the action of changing settings, such as air conditioner settings or navigator destinations.
Innovation Solution
A vehicle operation display device that uses a liquid crystal display and a directional switch to display motion images, like stripe images, between selectable items to visually indicate the switching process, providing a moving effect that enhances the user's perception of the operation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If a liquid crystal display is used to show selectable items, then information can be provided to the user, but no visual feedback is given when switching between items
Solution Approach 1:
The display transitions from a static state showing the current selectable item to a dynamic motion image state during switching operations. Motion images are generated and displayed between the current item and the target item to visually represent the switching action, making the operation feedback dynamic and observable
Solution Approach 2:
Motion images utilize visual changes including color transitions to indicate switching operations. The display changes visual appearance during transitions, using color and brightness variations to provide observable feedback that the switching operation is occurring
2Ease of operation
If motion images are displayed to indicate switching, then visual feedback is provided, but display processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements visual feedback by displaying motion images that represent the switching operation. When the directional switch is operated, the display controller generates and displays motion images between the current selectable item and the target item, providing immediate visual confirmation to the user that the operation is occurring
Solution Approach 2:
Motion images serve as an intermediary visual element between the current selectable item and the target item. These intermediate images bridge the gap between states, visually representing the transition process and making the abstract switching operation concrete and perceivable

AI summary
A vehicle operation display device includes a liquid crystal display, a display controller configured to control the liquid crystal display to display a plurality of images of selectable items on the liquid crystal display, and a directional switch operable to select one of the selectable items. The plurality of images of selectable items includes a first image of a first selectable item and a second image of a second selectable image. The first image and the second image are displayed next to each other on the liquid crystal display. The display controller is configured to control the liquid crystal display to display, when the directional switch is operated to switch a selected item from the first selectable item to the second selectable item, a motion image between the first image and the second image to indicate the switching of the selected item with a moving effect.
