Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Implementations of an in-vehicle display system may include: a first display device configured to irradiate a first area of a windshield of a vehicle with a first light constituting a first image and to display the first image as a virtual image of the first image in front of the first area; a second display device configured to display a second image as a real image in a second area of the windshield that is wider than the first area; and a control device configured to control the first display device and the second display device based on a travel state of the vehicle.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . An in-vehicle display system comprising: a first display device configured to irradiate a first area of a windshield of a vehicle with a first light constituting a first image and to display the first image as a virtual image of the first image in front of the first area; a second display device configured to display a second image as a real image in a second area of the windshield that is wider than the first area; and a control device configured to control the first display device and the second display device based on a travel state of the vehicle. 2 . The in-vehicle display system according to claim 1 , wherein: when the vehicle is in a first travel state, the control device is configured to allow the first display device to display the first image, and when the vehicle is in a second travel state, the control device is configured to allow the second display device to display the second image. 3 . The in-vehicle display system according to claim 2 , wherein the second travel state is an autonomous driving mode. 4 . The in-vehicle display system according to claim 1 , wherein, when switching the second image to the first image, the control device is configured to deform the second image so as to be included in the first area. 5 . The in-vehicle display system according to claim 1 , wherein, when switching the second image to the first image, the control device is configured to zoom-out the second image. 6 . The in-vehicle display system according to claim 1 , wherein, when switching the second image to the first image, the control device is configured to display a dummy image of an object included in a front field of view as the second image. 7 . The in-vehicle display system according to claim 1 , wherein, when switching the second image to the first image, the control device is configured to cross-fade the second image and the first image. 8 . The in-vehicle display system according to claim 1 , wherein the first display device includes: a first radiation unit configured to radiate the first light; and a first optical system configured to reflect the first light radiated by the first radiation unit and to perform irradiation toward the first area at a predetermined angle. 9 . The in-vehicle display system according to claim 1 , wherein the second display device includes: a second radiation unit configured to radiate a second light constituting the second image; and a second optical system configured to reflect the second light radiated by the second radiation unit and to perform irradiation toward the second area at a predetermined angle. 10 . The in-vehicle display system according to claim 9 , wherein the second area is an area where a transparent film screen is provided or an area where dew condensation occurs on the windshield. 11 . The in-vehicle display system according to claim 1 , wherein the second display device includes: a transparent display that is provided in the second area; and a display control unit configured to control display of the transparent display.
