System and method for enhancing driver situational awareness in a transportation vehicle

Abstract

A situation communication display enhances driver situational awareness in a transportation vehicle. The situation communication display includes a display member with a plurality of display surface areas. A first surface area displays a relatively focused driver field of view. Second and third surface areas each display wider driver fields of view. First, second, and third transition zones are located adjacent respective first, second, and third surface areas. The transition zones divide the first, second, and third surface areas and define a visual transition between the relatively focused driver field of view displayed by the first surface area and the wider driver fields of view displayed by the second and third surface areas.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
