DISPLAY CONTROL DEVICE, DISPLAY PROGRAM STORAGE MEDIUM, AND DISPLAY METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240131989 titled 'DISPLAY CONTROL DEVICE, DISPLAY PROGRAM STORAGE MEDIUM, AND DISPLAY METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a display control device that can acquire information of a moving body in the surroundings of a vehicle and display a specific image on a display area provided to the vehicle based on the position of the moving body. The specific image is either overlaid on or adjacent to the moving body, and if the moving body exits the display area, the specific image continues to be displayed for a specific period of time.
- Memory and processor coupled to the memory
- Acquire information of a moving body in the surroundings of a vehicle
- Display a specific image on a display area provided to the vehicle based on the position of the moving body
- Specific image displayed either overlaid on or adjacent to the moving body
- Continue to display the specific image if the moving body exits the display area for a specific period of time
Potential Applications
This technology could be used in automotive displays, augmented reality systems, and navigation systems to provide real-time information about moving objects in the surroundings of a vehicle.
Problems Solved
This technology helps improve situational awareness for drivers by displaying relevant information about moving objects near the vehicle, enhancing safety and reducing the risk of accidents.
Benefits
- Enhanced safety for drivers and pedestrians - Improved navigation and situational awareness - Real-time information display for moving objects
Potential Commercial Applications
"Enhancing Vehicle Safety with Real-Time Moving Object Display Technology"
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be augmented reality systems used in vehicles to display information about the surroundings, but the specific feature of displaying a specific image based on the position of a moving body may be a novel aspect of this technology.
Unanswered Questions
How does the device differentiate between different types of moving bodies in the surroundings?
The patent application does not provide details on how the device distinguishes between different types of moving bodies, such as pedestrians, vehicles, or animals.
What is the specific period of time for which the specific image continues to be displayed after the moving body exits the display area?
The patent application mentions a specific period of time but does not specify the exact duration for which the specific image will be displayed.
Original Abstract Submitted
a display control device includes: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: acquire information of a moving body in surroundings of a vehicle; and display a specific image on a display area provided to the vehicle according to a position of the moving body based on the acquired information of the moving body, the specific image being displayed either overlaid on or adjacent to the moving body; and in a case in which the moving body inside the display area has exited from the display area, continue to display the specific image until a specific period of time has elapsed.
