VEHICLE DISPLAY CONTROL FOR COLOR-IMPAIRED VIEWERS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17984416 titled 'VEHICLE DISPLAY CONTROL FOR COLOR-IMPAIRED VIEWERS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method of controlling a color display screen aboard a motor vehicle by calibrating the color settings based on the user's color perception response.
- The method involves performing a color calibration test on the user, receiving their color perception response, mapping their reduced visual gamut, and adjusting the color settings of the vehicle accordingly.
- This innovation aims to accommodate color perception deficiencies of users by customizing the color settings of the vehicle based on their individual visual gamut.
- By tailoring the color display to the user's specific needs, this technology can enhance the user experience and improve safety by ensuring optimal visibility of important information on the screen.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various industries such as automotive, aviation, and marine navigation systems to customize color displays for users with different color perception abilities.
Problems Solved
This technology addresses the issue of color perception deficiencies in users by providing a personalized solution to adjust the color settings of the display screen to accommodate their visual gamut.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved user experience, enhanced safety, and increased accessibility for individuals with color perception deficiencies.
Potential Commercial Applications
Potential commercial applications of this technology include automotive manufacturers, aircraft companies, and marine navigation system providers looking to offer customizable color displays for users with varying color perception abilities.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be existing color calibration systems used in display screens for individuals with color vision deficiencies. These systems may have similarities in calibrating color settings based on user responses to ensure optimal visibility and readability of information on the screen.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology impact the overall user experience in a motor vehicle?
This technology can significantly enhance the user experience by providing a customized color display that caters to the individual's color perception needs, but how does it affect the overall satisfaction and usability of the vehicle?
What are the potential limitations or challenges of implementing this technology in motor vehicles?
While this technology offers personalized color settings for users, are there any technical or practical challenges in integrating this system into existing vehicle displays?
Original Abstract Submitted
A method of controlling a color display screen aboard a motor vehicle includes performing, via a host computer, a color calibration test of a user of the motor vehicle in which the user is subjected to a calibrated set of color-coded test information. The method includes receiving a color perception response of the user to the calibrated set of color-coded test information via the host computer. Additionally, the method includes mapping a reduced visual gamut of the user via the host computer using the color perception response, and then commanding adjustment of user-specific color settings of the motor vehicle using the reduced visual gamut to thereby accommodate a color perception deficiency of the user.
