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

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240270073 titled 'DISPLAY CONTROL DEVICE, DISPLAY SYSTEM, AND DISPLAY CONTROL METHOD

The abstract describes a display control device that acquires information about surrounding vehicles and calculates the effect of slipstream for the own vehicle, preceding vehicle, and adjacent vehicle. The device then controls the display by animation based on this information.

  • Peripheral information acquisition unit acquires information around the own vehicle.
  • Preceding vehicle information acquisition unit acquires information about the preceding vehicle in the driving lane.
  • Adjacent vehicle information acquisition unit acquires information about the adjacent vehicle in the adjacent lane.
  • Effect calculation unit calculates the effect of slipstream for the vehicle.
  • Display control unit controls the display by animation based on the effect information.

Potential Applications: - Advanced driver assistance systems - Traffic management systems - Autonomous vehicles technology

Problems Solved: - Enhancing driver awareness of surrounding vehicles - Optimizing vehicle performance based on slipstream effects

Benefits: - Improved safety on the road - Enhanced driving experience - Increased fuel efficiency

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Display Control Device for Vehicle Safety" This technology can be utilized in the automotive industry for developing innovative safety features in vehicles, leading to increased market competitiveness and customer satisfaction.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the display control device enhance driver awareness on the road? 2. What are the potential implications of using slipstream effects for vehicle performance optimization?


Original Abstract Submitted

the display control device includes a peripheral information acquisition unit that acquires peripheral information around the own vehicle, and a preceding vehicle information acquisition unit that acquires preceding vehicle information of a preceding vehicle traveling in a lane ahead of the own vehicle based on the surrounding information; an adjacent vehicle information acquisition unit that acquires adjacent vehicle information of an adjacent vehicle traveling in an adjacent lane adjacent to the driving lane based on the surrounding information; an effect calculation unit for calculating effect information of the slipstream for the vehicle, and based on the effect information, the effect of the slipstream for the preceding vehicle and the adjacent vehicle is moved toward the rear of the vehicle from the preceding vehicle display unit and the adjacent vehicle display unit; and a display control unit that controls display by animation.
