Abstract
An adaptation status judging unit (112) judges an adaptation status of a driver to a color. A goal color decision unit (113) decides a goal color of a display range based on the adaptation status of the driver. An applicable color decision unit (115) decides an applicable color of a display portion on a screen of a display based on the goal color, the display portion displaying information. A control unit (116) controls the display based on the applicable color of the display portion.
Claims10
An in-vehicle display control device comprising:
- processing circuitry
- to judge an adaptation status of a driver to a color, based on external-light color data expressing a time sequence of an external-light color of a vehicle in which a display is mounted,
- to decide a goal color for a virtual image display range based on the adaptation status of the driver,
- to decide an applicable color of a display portion on a screen of the display based on the goal color, the display portion displaying information,
- to control the display based on the applicable color of the display portion, and
- to decide an interim color of the display portion based on an external-light color of the vehicle,
- wherein the processing circuitry calculates an estimated color of the display range of a case where a color of the display portion is adjusted to the interim color, compares the estimated color with the goal color, and decides the applicable color of the display portion based on a comparison result.
An in-vehicle display control device comprising:
- processing circuitry
- to judge an adaptation status of a driver to a color, based on external-light color data expressing a time sequence of an external-light color of a vehicle in which a display is mounted,
- to decide a goal color for a virtual image display range based on the adaptation status of the driver,
- to decide an applicable color of a display portion on a screen of the display based on the goal color, the display portion displaying information, and
- to control the display based on the applicable color of the display portion,
- wherein the processing circuitry judges a change tendency of a light source distance based on light source distance data expressing a time sequence of a light source distance which is a distance to a light source that emits external light, and adjusts the goal color of the display based on the change tendency of the light source distance.
An in-vehicle display control device comprising:
- processing circuitry
- to judge an adaptation status of a driver to a color, based on external-light color data expressing a time sequence of an external-light color of a vehicle in which a display and a camera are mounted,
- to decide a goal color for a virtual image display range based on the adaptation status of the driver,
- to decide an applicable color of a display portion on a screen of the display based on the goal color, the display portion displaying information,
- to control the display based on the applicable color of the display portion,
- to judge whether a headlight of an oncoming vehicle is a variable light distribution headlight, and
- to calculate the external-light color based on a peripheral image obtained by the camera, and to adjust the calculated external-light color if the headlight of the oncoming vehicle is the variable light distribution headlight.
