DISPLAY CONTROL DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240246486 titled 'DISPLAY CONTROL DEVICE
The patent application describes a display control device that enables remote operation of a moving body by a remote operator through image display on a display device.
- The display device includes a first screen that shows an intersection image captured by a camera at an intersection, depicting the traffic situation in the area.
- The display control device has sensors to gather intention information from the remote operator regarding right and left turns of the moving body.
- A processor in the device uses the intersection image and intention information to determine a course image indicating the planned path of the moving body.
- The processor then superimposes the course image on the intersection image, associating it with the moving body in the intersection image.
Potential Applications: - Remote operation of autonomous vehicles - Traffic management systems - Surveillance and monitoring applications
Problems Solved: - Enhancing remote control capabilities for moving bodies - Improving situational awareness for remote operators
Benefits: - Increased efficiency in remote operation - Enhanced safety through better visualization of planned paths - Streamlined traffic management processes
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Remote Control System for Moving Bodies" This technology could be utilized in industries such as autonomous vehicles, transportation, and surveillance systems, offering improved control and monitoring capabilities.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the display control device enhance the remote operation of moving bodies?
- The device allows for better visualization and control of the planned path of the moving body, improving remote operation efficiency.
2. What are the potential safety benefits of using this technology in traffic management systems?
- This technology can enhance situational awareness for remote operators, leading to safer and more efficient traffic management processes.
Original Abstract Submitted
a display control device is configured to control image display of a display device for remote operation of a moving body by a remote operator. the display device includes a first screen that displays an intersection image captured by a camera installed at an intersection and imaging a traffic situation in an area of the intersection. the display control device includes one or more sensors configured to acquire intention information of the remote operator regarding right and left turns of the moving body, and a processor. the processor determines, in accordance with a traveling direction of the moving body in the intersection image and the intention information, a shape of a course image indicating a planned course of the moving body, and displays the course image in a superimposed manner on the intersection image while associating the course image with the moving body in the intersection image.
