INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE AND VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18316306 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE AND VEHICLE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an information processing device that can detect when a driver of a vehicle performs a confirmation operation by visually confirming a side portion of the vehicle. If the confirmation operation is detected, the device can control the transmittance of a window in that direction to a predetermined value.
- The device is able to detect when a driver visually confirms a side portion of their vehicle.
- If the confirmation operation is detected, the device can control the transmittance of a window in that direction.
- The transmittance of the window can be set to a predetermined value.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be used in vehicles to improve driver visibility and safety.
- It can be applied in various types of vehicles, such as cars, trucks, and buses.
Problems Solved
- The technology addresses the issue of limited visibility for drivers when trying to visually confirm the side portion of their vehicle.
- It helps prevent accidents or collisions that may occur due to blind spots or limited visibility.
Benefits
- Improved driver visibility and safety.
- Enhanced situational awareness for drivers.
- Reduced risk of accidents or collisions.
