==VEHICLE IMAGE DISPLAY SYSTEM, VEHICLE IMAGE DISPLAY METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18363063 titled 'VEHICLE IMAGE DISPLAY SYSTEM, VEHICLE IMAGE DISPLAY METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

==Simplified Explanation==

The vehicle image display system described in the abstract is a system that adjusts the brightness of a digital image displayed in a vehicle based on various conditions such as the brightness of the surrounding environment, the presence of high luminance pixels in the image data, and the pixel values of the image.

* Display device for showing digital images
* Dark condition determination unit for assessing brightness of the environment
* Luminance determination unit for identifying high luminance pixels in the image data
* Pixel value determination unit for analyzing pixel values in the image data
* Image adjustment unit for modifying image brightness based on the above conditions

== Potential Applications ==
This technology could be applied in:
* Automotive industry for in-car display systems
* Entertainment systems in vehicles
* Navigation systems for better visibility

== Problems Solved ==
This technology addresses issues such as:
* Glare from bright images in dark environments
* Inconsistent image quality based on surroundings
* Strain on the eyes of the viewers

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include:
* Improved visibility of displayed images
* Reduced eye strain for passengers
* Enhanced user experience in vehicles

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
Commercial applications for this technology include:
* Car manufacturers integrating this system in their vehicles
* Entertainment system providers for vehicles
* Technology companies developing display solutions for vehicles

== Possible Prior Art ==
One possible prior art for this technology could be:
* Adaptive brightness control systems in smartphones and tablets

=== Unanswered Questions ===

=== How does this technology impact energy consumption in vehicles? ===
This article does not delve into the energy efficiency aspect of the system. It would be interesting to know if the adjustments made by the image display system have any impact on the overall energy consumption of the vehicle.

=== What are the potential safety implications of using this technology while driving? ===
The safety aspects of using a display system that adjusts brightness based on various conditions are not discussed in the article. It would be important to understand if such adjustments could potentially distract the driver or affect visibility in critical situations.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A vehicle image display system includes: a display device for displaying a digital image which is an image based on image data, a dark condition determination unit for determining whether a dark condition is satisfied with respect to the brightness of a surrounding environment of the vehicle, a luminance determination unit for determining whether the image data includes a high luminance pixel, a pixel value determination unit for determining whether a pixel having a pixel value equal to or lower than a second threshold value is not included in a peripheral pixel, and an image adjustment unit for performing a first brightness adjustment process for reducing the brightness of the image data when the dark condition is satisfied and the image data includes a high luminance pixel and the peripheral pixel does not include a pixel having a pixel value equal to or lower than the second threshold value.
