Abstract: The disclosure provides a display control system and a display control method thereof. The display control device controls the display device to display the location information image on the screen member based on the current location of the vehicle, map information, a captured image, and location information of a target recognition object. When the user is able to see the target recognition object, the display control device controls the display device to display the location information image representing the location information of the target recognition object in the first mode on the screen member. When the user is not able to see the target recognition object, the display control device controls the display device to display the location information image representing the location information of the target recognition object in a second mode on the screen member.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a display control device and a display control method thereof. The display control device controls a display device to project an information image representing a target recognition vehicle in a first mode on a screen member. The screen member is provided between the target recognition vehicle and a user of the vehicle. When a traveling direction of the target recognition vehicle intersects with a traveling direction of the vehicle, the display control device controls the display device to project the information image in a second mode on the screen member. The information image in the second mode includes an image simulating a vehicle headlight beam of the target recognition vehicle.

Abstract: In an illumination device for a vehicle, when a recognition part has recognized that a pedestrian may be present on an advancing route and when a detection part has detected that a driver has recognized the pedestrian, an exterior light is brought into either a first lit or first not-lit state, and when the recognition part has recognized that the pedestrian may be present on the advancing route and when the detection part has detected that the driver has not recognized the pedestrian, the exterior light is brought into either a second lit or second not-lit state, and the first lit state and the second lit state are different from each other and the first not-lit state and the second not-lit state are different from each other.

Abstract: A driving support device includes: a driving state monitoring portion configured to monitor a plurality of driving states including a gripping position of a steering wheel of an occupant of a vehicle; a positive value calculation portion configured to calculate a positive value indicating a degree of positiveness of the occupant with respect to steering based on the plurality of driving states monitored by the driving state monitoring portion; and a lane keep assistance control portion configured to perform lane keep assistance control of guiding a steering operation of the occupant so that the vehicle does not deviate from a traveling lane based on the positive value calculated by the positive value calculation portion.

Abstract: An operation detecting unit detects an operation input direction to an operation input unit attached to a steering wheel, and when an operation input direction recognizing unit recognizes that a vehicle is running, the operation input direction detected by the operation detecting unit is recognized to be a direction corresponding to an arrangement of element images constituting a part of an image to be displayed on an image display unit. Moreover, an operation input direction control unit uses the direction recognized by the operation input direction recognizing unit as the operation input direction related to at least any one of the element images.

Abstract: A vehicle input apparatus includes a display screen that displays a cursor that indicates an operation item with respect to a predetermined operation object, an input device that outputs signals according to a sliding operation using the fingers of an operator on an operation surface, and a display control portion that controls movement of the cursor on the display screen according to the signals that are output from the input device. The display screen includes a plurality of display areas that are divided according to the number of the plurality of operation surfaces, and each of the plurality of operation surfaces is associated with a separate display area, and an operation range is set on the display screen so that the cursor can only be moved within the range of the respective associated separate display area.

Abstract: An operation unit provided on a grip part of a steering wheel, and having an operation panel in which contact operations are possible by the fingers of an operator; an operation detection unit that detects contact operations with respect to the operation panel with a predetermined coordinate system as a reference; a display control unit that controls the display of a display device according to the contact operations detected by the operation detection unit; a correction unit that corrects a coordinate system according to a steering angle detected by a steering angle detection device; and a correction prohibition device that, based on at least one from among contact operations detected by the operation detection device, a steering angle detected by a steering angle sensor, and a speed detected by a speed sensor, prohibits correction of the coordinate system by the correction unit.

Abstract: This operating device for a vehicle includes: a holding portion provided at a steering wheel of the vehicle and adapted to be held by an operator; a first operation member provided on a surface of the holding portion, the first operation member having a first operating surface that is operatable by a finger of the operator through a contact operation and through a tilting operation; and a second operation member provided at a central portion of the first operating surface, the second operation member having a second operating surface that is operatable by the finger of the operator through a contact operation and through a pressing operation, wherein the first operating surface has an annular concave shape with the central portion being furthest recessed to an inside.

Abstract: There is provided a vehicle having a simple and inexpensive structure that assists the driving sense. A front window shield 1 of a vehicle 100 is provided with a pair of marks 2 and 3 substantially horizontally aligned. The marks 2 and 3 are formed at the same height at the left and right sides of the front window shield 1. A driver perceives a virtual line L by the marks 2 and 3 on the front window shield 1, and trackings the line of sight W1 are induced to move such as to gather between the bottom end line (herein, a line of an instrument panel 6) and a virtual line L.
