Vehicle Display Perspective Control for In-Depth Image Visibility
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing vehicle display devices struggle to maintain image visibility when displaying images with a sense of depth, particularly as the size of the image decreases or the interval between image contents narrows.
Innovation Solution
A vehicle display device that includes a first image simulating the scenery of the front side of the vehicle, with depth represented based on a first vanishing point, and a second image for information provision, with depth represented based on a different vanishing point, allowing both images to be displayed in the same region while maintaining visibility.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Shape
If an image with depth is displayed by placing it on the rear side in the depth direction, then a sense of depth is achieved, but the visibility deteriorates because the image size gets smaller
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a second vanishing point in addition to the first vanishing point, creating a new dimensional reference for depth representation. This allows the second image to be displayed with depth based on a different vanishing point, enabling it to maintain visibility while still conveying depth information in the same display region as the first image
2Loss of information
If multiple images are displayed in the same region, then information provision is enhanced, but the interval between contents narrows and visibility deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies different vanishing points to different images within the same display region. The first image uses a first vanishing point while the second image uses a second vanishing point, allowing each image to have its own depth characteristics and spatial positioning, thereby maintaining distinguishability and visibility even when displayed together

AI summary
A vehicle display device includes a display device configured to display an image to a driver of a vehicle, and a control unit configured to control the display device, in which an image to be displayed by the display device includes a first image and a second image, and the first image is an image simulating a scenery of a front side of the vehicle, and is an image in which a depth that is based on a first vanishing point is represented, and the second image is an image for information provision that is to be displayed in a same region as a display region of the first image, and is an image in which a depth that is based on a vanishing point different from the first vanishing point is represented.
