DISPLAY SYSTEM, DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18506468 titled 'DISPLAY SYSTEM, DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display system that includes a head-up display projecting a virtual image on a light-reflecting portion, a display space determination unit, and an image processing unit correcting the display image based on perspective.

  • Head-up display projects virtual image on light-reflecting portion
  • Display space determination unit determines display space of virtual image
  • Image processing unit corrects display image based on perspective

Potential Applications

The technology could be applied in automotive displays, augmented reality devices, and aviation head-up displays.

Problems Solved

The system solves the problem of distorted display images due to perspective errors in the depth direction of the display space.

Benefits

The corrected display images provide users with more accurate and realistic virtual images, enhancing their overall viewing experience.

Potential Commercial Applications

Commercial applications include automotive industry for advanced driver assistance systems, aviation industry for improved pilot displays, and consumer electronics for augmented reality devices.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art may include similar display systems used in automotive heads-up displays and augmented reality devices.
