DISPLAY SYSTEM, VEHICLE, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240123905 titled 'DISPLAY SYSTEM, VEHICLE, CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a display system for vehicles that includes a camera on the opposite lane side of the vehicle and a monitor control unit to display an image captured by the camera in a turn-ready state.
- Opposite lane side camera captures forward direction of the vehicle
- Monitor control unit displays image from camera in turn-ready state
Potential Applications

Benefits
- Enhanced safety for drivers and pedestrians - Improved situational awareness for drivers - Better maneuverability for vehicles in complex traffic situations
Potential Commercial Applications
- Automotive industry for new vehicle models - Transportation companies for fleet vehicles - Aftermarket products for vehicle upgrades
Possible Prior Art
There may be existing systems that use cameras for displaying images in vehicles, but the specific configuration of an opposite lane side camera for turn-ready states may be unique to this patent application.
Unanswered Questions
1. How does the system differentiate between a regular driving state and a turn-ready state? 2. Are there any potential privacy concerns with having a camera on the opposite lane side of a vehicle?
