SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ENHANCING OCCUPANT AWARENESS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240227835 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ENHANCING OCCUPANT AWARENESS

The patent application describes a system for enhancing occupant awareness in a vehicle through a display that shows information to the occupant and a controller that determines the activation state of the system, including activated and deactivated states. The controller also calculates the clearance distance between the vehicle and surrounding objects to display notifications to the occupant based on this distance.

  • The system includes a display and a controller in communication with the display.
  • The controller determines the activation state of the system, which can be activated or deactivated.
  • It calculates the clearance distance between the vehicle and objects in the environment.
  • Notifications are displayed to the occupant based on the clearance distance.

Potential Applications: - Automotive safety systems - Driver assistance technology - Smart vehicle displays

Problems Solved: - Enhancing occupant awareness in vehicles - Providing real-time information to drivers - Improving safety on the road

Benefits: - Increased safety for vehicle occupants - Real-time notifications for better decision-making - Enhanced driving experience

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Vehicle Occupant Awareness System" This technology can be used in: - Automotive industry for new vehicle models - Fleet management companies for improved safety measures - Insurance companies for incentivizing safe driving practices

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this system improve overall safety for vehicle occupants? - This system enhances safety by providing real-time notifications to the driver based on the clearance distance between the vehicle and surrounding objects, allowing for better decision-making and awareness. 2. What are the potential cost savings for companies implementing this technology? - Companies can potentially save on insurance costs and reduce accidents by using this system to enhance driver awareness and safety.


Original Abstract Submitted

a system for enhancing occupant awareness for a vehicle includes a display for displaying information to the occupant of the vehicle and a controller in electrical communication with the display. the controller is programmed to determine an activation state of the system. the activation state includes an activated state and a deactivated state. the controller is further programmed to determine a clearance distance between the vehicle and an object in an environment surrounding the vehicle in response to determining that the activation state is the activated state. the controller is further programmed to display a notification to the occupant of the vehicle based at least in part on the clearance distance.
