Vehicle Display Layout for Map and Road Condition Comprehension
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing vehicle display systems do not effectively integrate map information with recognized road conditions, hindering user understanding of vehicle controls, particularly in advanced driving assistant systems (ADAS).
Innovation Solution
A vehicle display control device that sets a first display area for a map of the vehicle's surroundings and a second display area for road conditions, adjusting their sizes based on driving assist system operations and driver states, to enhance user comprehension.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If map information and road condition information are displayed in separate overlapping areas, then comprehensive vehicle control information is provided, but user understanding is hindered due to information overlap and display complexity
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is divided into two distinct display areas: a first display area showing map information and a second display area showing road condition information. This segmentation prevents information overlap while ensuring comprehensive vehicle control information is presented, resolving the contradiction between providing complete information and maintaining ease of understanding.
2Adaptability or versatility
If dynamic adjustment of display area sizes is implemented to adapt to different driving scenarios, then user comprehension is improved, but display control processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The display control unit dynamically adjusts the sizes and positions of the first and second display areas based on detected driving scenarios and vehicle states. This dynamic adaptation improves user comprehension by presenting information appropriately for each situation while the processing complexity is managed through scenario-based control logic.
Data Source
AI summary
A vehicle display control device includes a processor. The processor acquires map information based on a current position of a vehicle. The processor acquires peripheral information of the vehicle. The processor sets, based on the map information and the peripheral information, a first display area that displays a map of an area around the vehicle and a second display area that displays a road condition around the vehicle on a display unit in a vehicle cabin.
