Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems for enhancing physical security of a vehicle occupant comprising a holographic projector component; a data repository component; a sensor component; a digital camera component; and a display screen component communicatively connected with the digital camera component. Also disclosed herein are associated methods for enhancing physical security of a vehicle occupant.
Claims14
A method for enhancing physical security of a vehicle occupant and a person approaching the vehicle comprising:
- providing a holographic projector component positioned within the vehicle;
- providing a remote data repository component communicatively and operatively connected with the holographic projector component;
- providing a sensor component;
- providing a digital camera component;
- and
- providing a display screen component communicatively connected with the digital camera component;
- wherein upon initiation of a command signal by the vehicle occupant, data is transmitted from the data repository component to the holographic projector component;
- wherein, upon receipt of the data, the holographic projector component projects the data onto a surface of the vehicle perceptible to the person approaching the vehicle;
- and
- wherein the holographic projector component is located within a rearview mirror of the vehicle, a side-view mirror of the vehicle, or a sun visor of the vehicle.
A method for enhancing physical security of a vehicle occupant and a person approaching the vehicle comprising:
- providing a holographic projector component positioned within the vehicle;
- providing a remote data repository component communicatively and operatively connected with the holographic projector component;
- providing a sensor component;
- providing a data analyzing component communicatively and operatively connected with the sensor component;
- providing a control component communicatively and operatively connected with the data analyzing component;
- providing a digital camera component communicatively and operatively connected with the control component;
- and
- providing a display screen component communicatively and operatively connected with the digital camera component;
- wherein, upon the data analyzing component determining based on data received from the sensor component that distance between the person approaching the vehicle and the vehicle has decreased below a threshold level, such data is transmitted to the control component and a command signal is transmitted from the control component to the digital camera component for the digital camera component to begin recording;
- providing an aperture in the vehicle extending from the interior to the exterior of the vehicle;
- wherein the aperture is sized so as to allow the vehicle occupant to transmit documents to the person approaching the vehicle through the aperture;
- wherein upon entry of a command signal by the vehicle occupant, data is transmitted from the data repository component to the holographic projector component;
- wherein, the holographic projector component, upon receipt of the data, projects the data onto a surface of the vehicle perceptible to the person approaching the vehicle;
- and
- wherein the holographic projector component is located within a rearview mirror of the vehicle, a side-view mirror of the vehicle, or a sun visor of the vehicle.
A method for enhancing physical security of a vehicle occupant and a person approaching the vehicle comprising:
- providing a digital projector component positioned within the vehicle;
- providing a data repository component communicatively and operatively connected with the digital projector component;
- providing a sensor component;
- providing a digital camera component;
- and
- providing a display screen component communicatively connected with the digital camera component;
- wherein upon initiation of a voice command signal, data is transmitted from the data repository component to the digital projector component;
- and
- wherein, upon receipt of the data, the digital projector component projects the data in a manner perceptible to the person approaching the vehicle.
