VEHICLE DISPLAY CONTROL DEVICE, VEHICLE DISPLAY DEVICE, VEHICLE DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18735137 titled 'VEHICLE DISPLAY CONTROL DEVICE, VEHICLE DISPLAY DEVICE, VEHICLE DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM

The abstract describes a vehicle display control device that superimposes images on a display region to assist the driver in detecting preceding vehicles.

  • The device detects preceding vehicles in front of the host vehicle and displays inter-vehicle marker objects to indicate their presence.
  • The marker objects are displayed sequentially from the host vehicle side towards the preceding vehicle side.
  • This technology aims to enhance driver awareness of surrounding vehicles and improve safety on the road.

Potential Applications: - Advanced driver assistance systems - Vehicle safety technology - Traffic management systems

Problems Solved: - Improving visibility of preceding vehicles - Enhancing driver awareness and safety - Facilitating better decision-making on the road

Benefits: - Increased safety on the road - Enhanced driver assistance and awareness - Improved traffic flow and management

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Vehicle Display Control System for Enhanced Safety This technology can be utilized by automotive manufacturers, fleet management companies, and transportation authorities to enhance vehicle safety and driver awareness. It can also be integrated into autonomous driving systems for improved navigation and obstacle detection.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the device differentiate between different types of vehicles on the road? 2. Can the display control device be customized to suit different driving conditions and preferences?

Frequently Updated Research: Ongoing research in this field focuses on improving the accuracy and efficiency of detecting and displaying inter-vehicle marker objects. Researchers are also exploring the integration of artificial intelligence to enhance the capabilities of the device.


Original Abstract Submitted

A vehicle display control device includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The vehicle display control device is configured such that the processor controls a vehicle display device for displaying an image on a display region so as to be superimposed on a portion of a view ahead of a vehicle. The processor is configured so as to detect a preceding vehicle traveling at a vehicle front side of a host vehicle, and in cases in which the preceding vehicle has been detected, causes an image that includes a plurality of inter-vehicle marker objects from the host vehicle side toward the preceding vehicle side to be displayed in the display region, and causes sequential emphasis display of the plurality of inter-vehicle marker objects in sequence from the host vehicle side toward the preceding vehicle side.
