Publication number: 20230400321Abstract: An Augmented Reality (AR) display device interoperating with a vehicle and a method for operating the same are disclosed. An AR display device interoperating with a vehicle according to the present disclosure can predict a context in which a problem may occur by additionally considering an external resource in addition to map data and sensing data as internal resources while the vehicle travels, and display the predicted context by varying an AR graphic interface in real time, thereby intuitively notifying a driver of the predicted context and a countermeasure therefor. At this time, an AR object separated from the AR graphic interface not only displays a guide for the predicted context but also provides a corresponding guide for safe driving in the predicted context.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 12, 2023Publication date: December 14, 2023Applicant: LG ELECTRONICS INC.Inventors: Jieun LEE, Jisuk CHAE, Hansung LEE, Junghoon SON, Jinhyuk HONG, Ilwan KIM, Byeongjun CHOI

Publication number: 20230400320Abstract: An Augmented Reality (AR) display device interoperating with a vehicle and a method for operating the same are disclosed. An AR display device interoperating with a vehicle according to the present disclosure can display a current driving state of the vehicle while the vehicle is traveling and display a guide related to a predicted next driving situation on a navigation screen using an AR graphic interface. At this time, the AR display device can guide a predicted driving situation in advance by separating and locating a part of the AR graphic interface at a predetermined distance ahead of a predicted location, and allow the separated part of the AR graphic interface to move as the vehicle travels so as to display a guide trajectory along which the vehicle is supposed to travel. This can provide more intuitive and realistic AR guidance to the vehicle.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 12, 2023Publication date: December 14, 2023Applicant: LG ELECTRONICS INC.Inventors: Byeongjun CHOI, Jisuk CHAE, Junghoon SON, Ilwan KIM, Jongtae PARK
