Description

       

   <Desc/Clms Page number 1> 
 



   Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kraftfahrzeug, z. B. PKW, LKW, Zug und dgl., bei welchem mindestens ein Fenster, vorzugsweise die Windschutzscheibe, als durchsichtiger Bildschirm z.B. mittels LCDAnzeige ausgebildet ist, welche für einen oder mehrerer im Fahrzeug befindlicher Computer dienen. 



   Die bisher vorhandenen Kraftfahrzeuge besitzen ein Armaturenbrett, in welchem verschiedene Anzeigen unterbracht sind, z. B. Geschwindigkeit, km-Stand, Temperatur, Batterieladung, Bremsenzustand usw. 



   Um sich dieses Armaturenbrett zu ersparen und um weitere Verbesserungen in der Bedienung und Sicherheit eines Fahrzeuges zu erreichen wird erfindungsgemäss vorgeschlagen, dass alle oder mindestens eine Fensterscheibe, vorzugsweise die vordere Windschutzscheibe als durchsichtiger Bildschirm dienen, wobei entlang des gesamten Aussenrandes eine Menueleiste mit fixer oder einstellbarer Breite vorgesehen ist, welche es ermöglicht einzelne Funktionen oder Anzeigen mittels eines Cursers anzuwählen. Dabei befindet sich eine Mouse, als Computereingabegerät z.B. als eingebaute rollende Kugel z. B. am Lenkrad, am Schaltknüppel od. auf einer eigenen Konsole usw.. Die Fensterscheiben sind dabei über ihre gesamte Fläche oder zumindest an ihren Rändern mit z.

   B. mit einer LCD-Schicht versehen (Liquid Cristal Display=Flüssigkristallanzeige), wobei sich zwischen zwei Glasplatten eine Flüssigkristallschicht befindet, welche unter dem Einfluss einer angelegten Spannung ihr Reflexionsvermögen ändert. Diese Schicht kann in der Scheibe integriert oder aussen aufgebracht sein. Eine weitere Möglichkeit der Anzeige besteht darin Hologramme auf den Scheiben entstehen zu lassen, womit sich auch ein räumliches Bild ergibt, welches insbesondere z. B. bei der Fehlersuche am Fahrzeug von Vorteil sein kann, indem der Fehlermodul räumlich anzeigt, wo genau sich die Störung befindet. 



   Ein weiterer Vorteil der Innovation besteht darin, dass ausser dem Armaturenbrett auch der innere Rückspiegel entfallen kann, da eine am Heck angebrachte Videokamera das Rückbild direkt in die Windschutzscheibe - z. B. im Bereich, wo sich bisher der Rückspiegel befindet - laufend überträgt und auch die Abstände anzeigt. Es ist auch möglich ein breiteres Panoramabild oben einzublenden, welches insbesondere beim Einparken hilfreich sein kann - man braucht sich dann auch beim Einparken nicht mehr umzudrehen. Für die Erfasssung des seitlichen Verkehrsgeschehens sind links und rechts vorne am Fahrzeug ebenfalls je eine Kamera angeordnet, welche ihrerseits die Bilder z. B. in die linke und rechte Ecke der Windschutzscheibe projizieren, was insbesondere beim Einbiegen in eine Querstrasse von Vorteil sein kann. Ausser mit einem Curser können die einzelnen Funktionen bzw.

   Anzeigen auch in der Art eines "touch screen" aufgerufen werden. Die Menueleiste kann beleuchtet oder selbstleuchtend ausgeführt sein. 



   Für die ganzen Abspielungen und Anzeigen kann auch irgendwo an der Scheibe ein eigener Bildschirmplatz, welcher beliebig verschiebbar ist, generiert werden. 



   Anhand einer Zeichnung soll nun eine beispielsweise Ausführungsform näher beschrieben werden :
Die Darstellung, Fig. 1, zeigt eine Ansicht vom Fahrersitz aus, wobei vorne die Windschutzscheibe-1- erkennbar ist, welche an ihrem Rand rundherum eine Menueleiste -2- mit einigen Zentimetern Breite aufweist, in welcher verschiedene Symbole -3- eingezeichnet sind. In der Mitte der Scheibe-1- oben befindet sich ein Feld -4- für die laufende Einblendung der rückwärtigen Situation. Der Pfeil -5- stellt den Curser dar, der mit einer z. B. am Lenkrad-12- oder am Schaltknüppel od. einer eigenen Konsole eingebauten Kugel als Mouse-8- in beliebiger Richtung bewegt werden kann und durch Anklicken mittels nicht dargestellter Tasten - z. B. an der Lenkradunterseite - die einzelnen Symbole oder Funktionen aufgerufen werden können.

   Anstelle eines Schaltknüppels wäre es auch sinnvoll die einzlnen Gänge mit Hilfe des Cursers einzulegen. Die an den Türen angeordneten Seitenscheiben-6,7- können ebenfalls als Bildschirme mit einer Menueleiste -9,10ausgebildet sein, ebenso wie die nicht dargestellte Heckscheibe des Fahrzeuges. Pos. -11- zeigt ein abgegrenztes Bildschirmareal -11- welches an der Windschutzscheibe-1- beliebig mittels Curser-5- verschiebbar oder auch ausblendbar ist. 



   Selbstverständlich können die einzelnen Symbole an der Menueleiste auch verschiedene Farben aufweisen, um die Symbolfelder, welche auch verschiedene Grösse aufweisen können, rascher auswählen zu können. Alle Parameter des Fahrzeuges, sowie der augenblickliche Fahrzustand und Bewegungszustand des Fahrzeuges, sowie die Bedingungen ausserhalb des Fahrzeuges sind somit ständig im Blickfeld der Fahrers. Am Bildschirm können ständig die aktuellen Verkehrsnach- 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 2> 

 richten eingeblendet werden. Die Anzeige der Fahrtroute ermöglicht das rasche Ansteuern eines Zieles.

   Alle Funktionen welches das Fahrzeug aufweist können mit Hilfe des Cursers od. dgl. bedient werden, ohne dass der Fahrer das Lenkrad loslassen, oder seinen Kopf wenden muss!
Beispielsweise Funktionen und Anzeigen welche weiters in der Schaltleiste -2- vorhanden sein können - ausser denjenigen welche vom Armaturenbrett bereits in die Windschutzscheibe gewechselt sind:

   - Klimaanlageregelung - Anzeige der Hecksituation und seitliche Strassenbilder - Fahrzeugneigung - Schalten der Motorgänge - Anzeige in % der noch vorhandenen Sicherheit beim Kurvenfahren - Messung und Anzeige aller Abstände vorne, hinten und seitlich - Lärmpegel innen und aussen - Weganzeige (Strassenanzeige mittels Satellitennavigation) - Fahrtrichtungsanzeige - alle aktuellen Motordaten entsprechend einem Bordcomputer - Herstellen der Telefonverbindungen durch antippen eines Menuefeldes - Radio und Fernsehen Ein- und Ausschalten - Einspielen eines beliebigen Computerprogrammes, für Büroarbeiten od. Videospiele (vornehmlich im stehenden Zustand des Fahrzeuges oder für die Fahrgäste an den Seitenfenstern) - Reifendrücke - Serviceanzeigen - Anzeige f. d. Störungsbehebung - Strassenzustand usw. usw. 



   Damit sind nur einige Beispiele des Erfindungsgegenstandes beschrieben, wobei noch viele weitere Varianten denkbar wären ohne die Grundidee zu verlassen. Z. B. besteht die Möglichkeit auch die äusseren Rückspiegel auf dieselbe Weise wie den inneren Rückspiegel zu ersetzen. 



   Mittels Spracherkennungssystem wäre es auch möglich die einzelnen Menuefelder der Symbolleiste aufzurufen ohne einer manuellen Bewegung. Diese Innovation bedeutet sozusagen "windows" für die Windschutzscheibe. 



   Eine weitere Variante ist, die Symbolfelder auf der Menueleiste als 3-D-Hologramme darzustellen. Es gibt eine reihe von Symbolen welche reine Anzeigen und Warnblinkleuchten sind, ähnlich wie im Armaturenbrett, und solche Symbole welche angeklickt werden müssen und eine Funktion auslösen, z. B. Telefonverbindung herstellen, Internet-Anschluss herstellen, Strassenkarten aufrufen, Licht einschalten, Radio bedienen, Feststellbremse betätigen usw. Der Vorteil ist immer, dass man vom Blick auf die Windschutzscheibe nicht abzulassen braucht, womit die Verkehrssicherheit steigt. Die Umgebung der Symbole und der Anzeigen ist transparent, sodass möglichst wenig Sichtbeeinträchtigung erfolgt. 



   PATENTANSPRÜCHE: 
1. Kraftfahrzeug, z. B. PKW, LKW, Zug od. dgl., wobei mindestens ein Fenster, vorzugsweise die Windschutzscheibe, als Bildschirm z. B. mit LCD-Anzeigen für einen oder mehrere im
Fahrzeug befindliche Computer dient, oder Hologramme im Bereich des Fensters projiziert werden, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass am gesamten Rand der Fenster oder an Teilen desselben eine Menüleiste (2,9,10) mit einstellbarer oder fixer Breite vorgesehen ist, wobei die einzelnen Symbole (3) - wenn sie eine Steuerfunktion aufweisen - mittels eines Cur- sers (5) oder mittels Spracherkennung oder "touch screen" ansteuerbar sind.

   The invention relates to a motor vehicle, for. As cars, trucks, trains and the like., In which at least one window, preferably the windshield, as a transparent screen, e.g. is formed by LCD display, which are used for one or more in-vehicle computer.



   The existing vehicles have a dashboard in which various displays are placed, z. Speed, mileage, temperature, battery charge, brake condition, etc.



   In order to spare this dashboard and to achieve further improvements in the operation and safety of a vehicle is proposed according to the invention that all or at least one window, preferably the front windshield serve as a transparent screen, along the entire outer edge of a menu bar with fixed or adjustable Width is provided, which makes it possible to select individual functions or displays by means of a cursor. There is a mouse, as a computer input device, e.g. as a built-in rolling ball z. B. on the steering wheel, on the shift stick od. On its own console, etc. The windows are over their entire area or at least at their edges with z.

   B. with an LCD layer provided (liquid crystal display), wherein between two glass plates is a liquid crystal layer which changes its reflectivity under the influence of an applied voltage. This layer can be integrated in the disk or applied externally. Another way of displaying is to create holograms on the discs, which also results in a spatial image, which in particular z. B. when troubleshooting the vehicle can be advantageous by the fault module spatially indicates exactly where the fault is.



   Another advantage of the innovation is that in addition to the dashboard and the inner rearview mirror can be omitted, since a rear-mounted video camera, the return image directly into the windshield -. B. in the area where previously the rearview mirror is - constantly transmits and also indicates the distances. It is also possible to show a wider panoramic picture above, which can be particularly helpful when parking - you then need not turn around when parking. For the detection of the lateral traffic events are also left and right front of the vehicle each arranged a camera, which in turn the images z. B. in the left and right corner of the windshield project, which in particular when turning into a cross street can be beneficial. Except with a cursor, the individual functions or

   Ads can also be called in the manner of a "touch screen". The menu bar can be illuminated or self-luminous.



   For all the plays and ads, a separate screen space, which can be moved as desired, can also be generated somewhere on the disc.



   With reference to a drawing, an exemplary embodiment will now be described in more detail:
The illustration, Fig. 1, shows a view from the driver's seat, with the front windscreen-1 is recognizable, which has around its edge around a menubar -2- with a few centimeters wide, in which various symbols -3- are drawn. In the middle of the disc-1 above is a field -4- for the current display of the rear situation. The arrow -5- represents the cursor, with a z. B. on the steering wheel-12 or on the shift stick od. Built-in own console ball as Mouse-8- can be moved in any direction and by clicking on means not shown -. B. on the steering wheel base - the individual symbols or functions can be called.

   Instead of a gear stick, it would also be useful to insert the individual gears with the help of the cursor. The arranged on the doors side windows-6,7- can also be designed as screens with a menu bar -9,10, as well as the rear window of the vehicle, not shown. Pos. -11- shows a delimited screen area -11- which on the windshield-1- arbitrarily by means of cursor-5 displaceable or can be faded out.



   Of course, the individual symbols on the menu bar can also have different colors in order to be able to select the symbol fields, which can also be of different sizes, more quickly. All parameters of the vehicle, as well as the current driving condition and state of motion of the vehicle, as well as the conditions outside the vehicle are thus constantly in the driver's field of vision. On the screen, the current traffic

 <Desc / Clms Page number 2>

 be displayed. The display of the route allows you to quickly reach a destination.

   All functions which the vehicle has can be operated by means of the cursor or the like, without the driver having to let go of the steering wheel or turn his head!
For example, functions and displays which can be further in the safety edge -2- - except those who have already changed from the dashboard to the windshield:

   - Air conditioning control - Display of the rear situation and lateral street pictures - Vehicle inclination - Switching the engine gears - Display in% of the remaining safety when cornering - Measurement and display of all distances front, rear and side - Noise level inside and outside - Distance display (road indication via satellite navigation) - Direction indicator - All current engine data according to an on-board computer - Establishing the telephone connections by tapping a menu field - Radio and television switching on and off - Importing any computer program, for office work or video games (especially when the vehicle is stationary or for the passengers at the side windows) - Tire pressures - Service displays - Display f. d. Troubleshooting - road condition, etc. etc.



   Thus, only a few examples of the subject invention are described, with many more variants would be conceivable without leaving the basic idea. For example, it is also possible to replace the outer rearview mirror in the same way as the inner rearview mirror.



   Using the speech recognition system it would also be possible to call up the individual menu fields of the toolbar without a manual movement. This innovation means "windows" for the windshield, so to speak.



   Another variant is to display the symbol fields on the menu bar as 3-D holograms. There are a number of icons which are pure indicators and hazard lights, similar to the dashboard, and those icons which must be clicked and trigger a function, e.g. B. Establish a telephone connection, make Internet connection, call road maps, turn on the light, operate radio, operate parking brake, etc. The advantage is always that you do not need to let go of the windshield, which increases road safety. The environment of the icons and the displays is transparent, so that the least possible visual impairment occurs.
