System and method for dynamic in-vehicle virtual reality

A computing system for rendering views to an output device, comprising:

• a processor operatively connected for computer communication to one or more vehicle systems of a vehicle and the output device, the processor including:
• a virtual reality data module receiving vehicle data associated with one or more of the vehicle systems of the vehicle from a portable device, wherein the vehicle data includes a velocity, an orientation, and a location of the vehicle, the virtual reality data module receiving predictive vehicle data including a velocity, an orientation, and a location of the vehicle;
• and the virtual reality data module receiving user data the from the portable device, the user data including a velocity, an orientation and a location of a user, wherein the user is in possession of the output device;
• a dynamic virtual reality module generates a view based on the vehicle data, the predictive vehicle data, the user data, and a model, the model including one or more components that define the view;
• and
• a rendering module determines a difference between the user data and the vehicle data indicative of a perspective based on motion of the vehicle and motion of the user from the user data, and wherein the rendering module renders the view to the output device by controlling the output device to update display of the view according to the determined difference and the predictive vehicle data.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions that when executed by a processor perform a method for rendering views to an output device, comprising:

• receiving vehicle data from a portable device, the vehicle data including a velocity, an orientation, and a location of a vehicle;
• receiving user data from the portable device, the user data including a velocity, an orientation and a location of a user;
• generating a view based on the vehicle data, the user data and a model, the model including one or more components that define the view;
• determining a difference between the user data and the vehicle data indicative of a perspective based on motion of the vehicle from the vehicle data and motion of the user from the user data;
• and
• rendering the view to the output device by controlling the output device to update display of the view according to the determined difference.
