Abstract
An information presentation device includes: a directional information obtaining element for obtaining directional information based on a signal from an enhancement device for safety or comfort of a passenger of a vehicle; an information presentation controller for generating a driving signal based on the directional information; and a stimulation element including multiple vibrators for generating a traveling wave of vibration in an in-vehicle element. A directionality of the traveling wave corresponds to the directional information. The stimulation element transmits the traveling wave to the passenger so that the passenger perceives the directionality of the traveling wave.
Claims15
An information presentation device comprising:
- a directional information obtaining element for obtaining directional information based on a signal from an enhancement device, wherein the enhancement device enhances safety or comfort of a passenger of a vehicle, and at least a part of the enhancement device is disposed in the vehicle;
- an information presentation controller for generating a driving signal based on the directional information;
- and
- a stimulation element including a plurality of vibrators, each of which is operated based on the driving signal so that the vibrator generates a traveling wave of vibration in an in-vehicle element, wherein the passenger touches the in-vehicle element,
- wherein a directionality of the traveling wave corresponds to the directional information, and
- wherein the stimulation element transmits the traveling wave to the passenger so that the passenger perceives the directionality of the traveling wave.
