Abstract
A vehicle display device comprises a display section, a control section. The display section is provided inside a vehicle cabin and includes a display area capable of displaying an image. The control section includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to cause a plurality of plans scheduled for execution by a vehicle to be displayed in the display area in a row in scheduled execution sequence, and to cause a top plan that is a plan having an earliest scheduled execution from out of the plurality of plans to disappear by fade-out processing in the display area when a prescribed condition related to the top plan has been satisfied.
Claims20
A vehicle display device comprising:
- a display section provided inside a vehicle cabin of a vehicle and including a display area capable of displaying an image;
- and
- a control section including a memory and a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor is configured to:
- cause a plurality of plans scheduled for execution by the vehicle to be displayed in the display area in a row in a scheduled execution time sequence, the plurality of plans being related to traveling of the vehicle, each of the plurality of plans showing a lane change of the vehicle or showing a merge of the vehicle into a vehicle lane, and
- when an action of a top plan that is a plan having an earliest scheduled execution time among the plurality of plans is started, (i) cause the top plan to move out of the scheduled execution time sequence and move to a portion of the display area that is different from and adjacent to a location of the scheduled execution time sequence, and (ii) after the top plan has moved to the portion of the display area that is different from and adjacent to the location of the scheduled execution time sequence, cause the top plan to disappear from the portion of the display area that is different from and adjacent to the location of the scheduled execution time sequence by fade-out processing while continuing to display the plurality of plans other than the top plan in the location of the scheduled execution time sequence in the display area.
A display processing method executed by a processor to cause a plurality of plans scheduled for execution by a vehicle to be displayed in a display area of a display section provided inside a vehicle cabin of the vehicle by displaying the plurality of plans in a row in a scheduled execution time sequence, the plurality of plans being related to traveling of the vehicle, each of the plurality of plans showing a lane change of the vehicle or showing a merge of the vehicle into a vehicle lane, the display processing method comprising:
- when an action of a top plan that is a plan having an earliest scheduled execution time among the plurality of plans is started, (i) causing the top plan to move out of the scheduled execution time sequence and move to a portion of the display area that is different from and adjacent to a location of the scheduled execution time sequence, and (ii) after the top plan has moved to the portion of the display area that is different from and adjacent to the location of the scheduled execution time sequence, causing the top plan to disappear from the portion of the display area that is different from and adjacent to the location of the scheduled execution time sequence by fade-out processing while continuing to display the plurality of plans other than the top plan in the location of the scheduled execution time sequence in the display area.
A non-transitory storage medium storing a program executable by a processor to perform display control processing to cause a plurality of plans scheduled for execution by a vehicle to be displayed in a display area of a display section provided inside a vehicle cabin of the vehicle by displaying the plurality of plans in a row in a scheduled execution time sequence, the plurality of plans being related to traveling of the vehicle, each of the plurality of plans showing a lane change of the vehicle or showing merge of the vehicle into a vehicle lane, the display control processing comprising:
- when an action of a top plan that is a plan having an earliest scheduled execution time among the plurality of plans is started, (i) causing the top plan to move out of the scheduled execution time sequence and move to a portion of the display area that is different from and adjacent to a location of the scheduled execution time sequence, and (ii) after the top plan has moved to the portion of the display area that is different from and adjacent to the location of the scheduled execution time sequence, causing the top plan to disappear from the portion of the display area that is different from and adjacent to the location of the scheduled execution time sequence by fade-out processing while continuing to display the plurality of plans other than the top plan in the location of the scheduled execution time sequence in the display area.
