Description

Be used for changing the display packing and the device of display position according to external environment condition
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of display packing, and also relate to a kind of display device that adopts this method to vehicle driver's presentation information.
Background technology
As a kind of display packing that is used for to vehicle driver's presentation information, the whole bag of tricks has been proposed.One of conventional method is a head up display (HUD).This HUD device is characterised in that HUD can reduce the amount of movement of user's viewpoint, therefore, is of great use for the raising of security.
In order to improve the demonstration vision identifiability of HUD device, Jap.P. 2,913, disclosed display device has proposed to utilize the display device of the sight equation between driver's eyes in 901.According to this display device, the quantity of sight equation, video data and position change according to the change of vehicle ' position, thereby have improved driver's perception and improved security.
Yet this display device does not illustrate graphic presentation (display) according to the ambient conditions of outside vehicle.The result is that in some cases, the ability that display device presents discernible graphic presentation visually may reduce owing to the external environment condition situation.When showing as three-dimensional picture by the guiding arrow that utilizes the preceding 100 meters distances of sight equation demonstration vehicle between driver's eyes, be likely that the driver almost can't identify the guiding arrow of the preceding 100 meters distances of vehicle, this is because the driver has been primarily focused on another vehicle of the preceding 20 meters distances of this vehicle.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, at the problems referred to above, the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of display packing that is installed in the display device employing on the vehicle and present the method for graphic presentation,, and provide a kind of display device so that improve the vision identifiability of graphic presentation as a kind of environment according to outside vehicle.
According to the present invention, allow the vehicle driver to discern the position of an information transmission device (information conveyer) three-dimensionally, described information transmission device is used for by utilizing the sight equation between driver's eyes to transmit variation to the driver.Especially, when between the location of the information transmission device of driver identification and vehicle, having object, in advance the location is converted to the position of this object, and then the display message conveyer.
Like this, make be hidden in this object back and therefore should enter into visible state by sightless information transmission device.The result is that the driver can experience the sensation identical with normal vision, and has improved the vision identifiability of information transmission device.
Alternatively, when having object between the location of the information transmission device that the driver identifies and the vehicle, in advance the location is converted to the position except that the position of this object back, shows this information transmission device then.
In addition, alternatively, when more not having object between the predetermined forward direction distance and position of front when the location of the information transmission device that the driver identifies and in this location, preferably, before showing this information transmission device, in advance information transmission device is moved to the object space in the scope, this scope is by determining as reference point, predetermined forward direction distance and position and the distance between the driver with the driver.By information transmission device being moved on the position in this scope, the distance between the location of the information transmission device that the driver identifies and its background becomes suitable, thereby makes driver's identifying information conveyer easily that becomes.
Further, alternatively, when more not having object between predetermined the place ahead distance and position of front when the location of the information transmission device that identifies the driver and in this location, preferably, earlier information transmission device was moved to the location that is present in the interior object of a distance before showing this information transmission device, this distance is generally equal to the driver as the location of reference point, information transmission device and the distance between the driver.By information transmission device being moved to this position, make the location of the information transmission device that the driver identifies and the distance between its background become suitable.In addition, not big the variation compared with the distance between the driver in the location of information transmission device with original state, thereby makes driver's identifying information conveyer easily.
In addition, locate the tone degree of distribution (colortone distribution degree) (or component color dispersion degree component color dispersiondegree) of background to such an extent as to be that so high driver in some cases can ignore information transmission device in the location of information transmission device.For example, can imagine ground, this background is the bulletin board that has attractive color, traffic signals or the like.
In these cases, when the tone degree of distribution of the background of locating in the location of information transmission device is higher than a predetermined reference value, preferably, before the display message conveyer, in advance this information transmission device is moved on the position that the tone degree of distribution is lower than predetermined reference value.In addition, can also come the mobile message conveyer according to the condition such as background luminance and colourity.In addition, preferably, this predetermined reference value is set in the predetermined point place of tone degree of distribution.At the predetermined point place of tone degree of distribution, the ratio that the vehicle driver is difficult to the information of identifying information conveyer begins to increase.Yet the predetermined point of this tone degree of distribution is different with driver's variation.Therefore, preferably, permission is set at an adjustable value with this predetermined reference value.
By information transmission device being moved to this position with this kind mode, to such an extent as to even when the so high driver of making of tone degree of distribution of display position place background of plan almost can't identify information transmission device, the driver is identifying information conveyer easily also.This is because in advance information transmission device is moved on the position of the background with low key tone degree of distribution, and in this position display.
In addition, be converted to other position in location and before described other position display information transmission device with information transmission device, can also be that then other position display message conveyer was converted to described other position with the location of information transmission device earlier in the past changing the location in the past once at this place, location display message conveyer.Should be noted that as another possibility, can be in the mobile message conveyer display message conveyer.
By once at the visual identity position display information transmission device of original plan, under the situation with some information specific conveyer (such as information transmission device of position of appearing characteristic), the driver can enjoy and can easily grasp the effect of visual identity position.Even should be noted that the initial visual recognizing site is converted to reposition after, some indicants such as drawing line (drawing line) also can be used for showing initial display position.
In addition, the information of relevant outside vehicle environment and the information of relevant vehicle have been obtained, and allow three-dimensional ground of vehicle driver identifying information conveyer, information transmission device is used for by utilizing the sight equation between driver's eyes to come the display message conveyer, thereby transmits information to the driver.In addition, assess the vision identifiability according to the information that has pass vehicle external environment condition at least and/or the information of relevant vehicle, before the display message conveyer, position, shape and the color of the information transmission device that the driver is identified wherein changes to one of at least the state of the vision identifiability after the improvement from predetermined state.
Should be noted that above-mentioned predetermined state is meant is different from the state of being determined by the outside vehicle environment.An example of predetermined state is: sentence the state that reservation shape and predetermined color show in the precalculated position.Usually, the above-mentioned information about vehicle is the information of relevant vehicle current location and moving direction.
In providing the display device of said structure, even make because of outside vehicle environment reason and other reason make that together the driver almost can't be from the state of identifying information conveyer visually, change that the display message conveyer just made driver's state of identifying information conveyer easily in the past on display device into.The result is, can be to driver's presentation information correctly.

(1) procedure for displaying
Fig. 4 shows the process flow diagram of the procedure for displaying of being carried out by control module 110.When the firing key of unlocking vehicle and the information that will show exist, repeat this procedure for displaying.
This process flow diagram starts from step S110, determines the position and the direction of vehicle in step S110.Can find the position and the direction of vehicle according to the signal that gps antenna 106, vehicle speed sensor 107 and aspect sensor 109 are produced.
Then, in next step S115, near the map datum the current location that from map DB 306, obtains in step S110, to find.At next step S120, subsequently, from RAM303, obtain the display setting data of in assignment procedure (will be described below), having set.The display setting data are data of shape, color and the display position of representative information conveyer.
Information transmission device refers to the demonstration object that is used to inform driver's information.The example of information transmission device is: the guiding arrow, be used to show the image of condition of road surface and the direct character of descriptor.It should be noted that: when not setting the display setting data as yet, use the display setting data of acquiescence.
Then, at next step S122, according to position that obtains at step S110 and orientation, (such as the position and the orientation of vehicle) and the display position of determining the plan of information transmission device at the map datum that step S115 obtains.
Subsequently, at next step S124, be identified in the visual field situation of vehicle front according to the signal that produces by ccd video camera 104 and laser radar 105.In this case, situation identification refers to the operation of the information of grasping relevant described situation.About the example of the information of described situation is: the position in the position of preceding vehicle and shape, roadside and shape and the scenery that the driver saw.
Then, process proceeds to next step S125, by judging whether there are some objects between this vehicle and visual identity position, selects the step of follows step S125.When having object between this vehicle and visual identity position, process advances to step S130.Otherwise when not having object between this vehicle and visual identity position, process advances to step S135.
At step S130, make the visual identity position change of information transmission device or move to the position that has object.Moving of visual identity position only caused the variation on the data.Actual graphic presentation still is not shown.Body surface on the vehicle side is to change the ideal position that moves the position, back.After the operation of finishing the visual identity position that changes information transmission device, process proceeds to next step S145.
It should be noted that, when the display position of the information transmission device in the display setting data that step S120 obtains is specified position except that " automatically ", under the situation of the visual identity position that does not change information transmission device, display message conveyer on appointed positions.This operation in order to display message conveyer on the assigned address except that " automatically " is applicable to that described in the following explanation all move.
By the image shown in reference Fig. 5, be described in the example of the processing of step S130 execution.This image is a view: when the driving driver in the vehicle had seen that through windshield 101 thing is present in the vehicle front, this view was visible.The position that information transmission device 901 is the nature hidden state before make moving is closed and is fastened, and moves the place ahead (at a distance) that preceding information transmission device 901 is positioned at preceding vehicle 902.Before show moving wittingly in this state during information transmission device 901, although mobile preceding information transmission device 901 is hidden in the vehicle 902 of front naturally and enters invisible mode (than this vehicle farther place) afterwards, information transmission device 901 enters visible state before moving.Because the mobile preceding information transmission device 901 that shows intentionally, the sensation of bringing for the driver just is different from the normal cognitive sensation of feeling.Therefore, make probably and cause the driver almost can not identify information transmission device.
In order to address this problem, information transmission device is moved to the position of preceding vehicle 902, promptly by the position of moving back information transmission device 903 expressions.Move back information transmission device 903 by such demonstration, can reduce the inharmonious sense that the driver feels, just can identify information transmission device at an easy rate thus.
Return Fig. 4,,, select the step behind the follows step S135 by judging the predetermined forward direction distance (at a distance) begin on the moving direction of vehicle, from the information transmission device current position with the interior object that whether exists at step S135.In this case, preferably, with tens meters distances as typically being scheduled to the forward direction distance.Common driver can easily discern the interior object of this predetermined forward direction distance.When having object in predetermined forward direction distance, described process advances to step S145.Otherwise when predetermined forward direction distance is interior when not having object, described process advances to step S140.
At step S140, be the position that is present in the object of a location with the visual identity position transition of information transmission device, the roughly the same object of distance of the distance of this zone and this vehicle and already present object and this vehicle.Finish the visual identity position transition of information transmission device for this reason after the operation of the position of object, described process advances to step S145.
