Estimating the term…
A head-up display is provided which is suitable for a motorcycle. An image is present in peripheral fields outside a 90% center field. In the case where the image is located outside the 90% center field, it does not obstruct driving of the vehicle, and in the case where the image is located in the peripheral fields, it allows a driver to dimly see the shape of the image and thereby recognize the presence of the image. For this reason, the image is located in the peripheral fields. Since an image is located in a peripheral field, the presence of the image can be recognized by a driver while not obstructing a desirable visibility to the front side of the driver. The driver can recognize, on the basis of the presence or absence of the image, whether or not attention should be taken to drive the vehicle.
A head-up display for a motorcycle, which is adapted to inform a driver of traffic information by display of an image projected on a screen provided in front of a riding position of a driver, wherein when a visual field for a driver who takes a riding posture and turns his or her eyes to the front side is divided into a central field and a peripheral field surrounding said central field, said image is located in said peripheral field on said screen, and wherein said image is a stripe or linear pattern extending in a horizontal direction, wherein a width of said image in said horizontal direction is determined so that an angle formed between two lines extending from a point in said central field to both ends of said image becomes at least 20°.
