Vehicle Display Slide-In Animation for Driver Recognition
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing vehicle display devices do not effectively alert users to new images, particularly in a manner that ensures easy recognition by the driver, especially when displaying alarms or changing display modes.
Innovation Solution
A vehicle display device with an image display unit and a frame member that surrounds part of the image display region, where new images are displayed from the edge of the frame member in a slide-in manner, either during mode changes or interruption displays, utilizing a ring with an arc shape to enhance visual recognition.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If a new image is displayed in a surrounding of the frame member, then the user can access new information, but the user may not easily recognize the display of the new image
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by implementing a slide-in display mechanism where the new image dynamically moves from the edge of the frame member toward the center of the display region. This dynamic movement transforms a static display into an animated transition, making the appearance of new images visually noticeable and easily recognizable by the user without requiring complex additional hardware components.
2Ease of operation
If the new image is displayed from the edge of the frame member in a slide-in manner, then the user can easily recognize the new image, but the display time and transition complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies partial action by implementing a slide-in mechanism that moves the new image only partially from the edge of the frame member to a predetermined position within the display region, rather than requiring a complete transition across the entire display area. This partial movement is sufficient to capture user attention and convey the appearance of new information, thereby reducing the overall transition time while maintaining ease of recognition.

AI summary
A vehicle display device includes an image display device and a frame member. The image display device is disposed in front of a driver in a vehicle and displays an image. The frame member is disposed on a driver side of the image display device and surrounds a part of an image display region in the image display device. When displaying a new image in a surrounding of the frame member, the image display device displays the new image from an edge of the frame member in a slide-in manner.
