  • Patent number: 12203758
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for using augmented reality (AR) displays to convey graphical representations of different types of information to a user. The information may be obtained from various sources such as objects and/or features that are dynamically detected by a vehicle or user-generated content. The graphical representations may also be based upon information that may be obtained via the use of crowdsourced AV map data. The graphical representations may be presented in as an AR view in a medium (such as a vehicle windshield) that matches a field of view of a user, thus accurately blending holographic information with the physical objects in the scene.
