  • Patent number: 8497880
    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for presenting information for viewing by a driver of, e.g., a vehicle, of a train, a captain of a ship, a pilot of an airplane, or by any other person who has to gaze in a certain direction, especially for observing or monitoring the environment such as a road in case of a vehicle driver. The information is presented in such a way that such a person is less impaired with respect to his ability to detect changes in the environment when reading such information so that safety especially of driving a vehicle is considerably improved.

  • Patent number: 7656313
    Abstract: Method and system for supporting path control are disclosed for supporting path control especially of a vehicle on a road or in an off-road environment, or of a ship or an airplane. The supporting of path control is especially provided by conducting at least one of the following steps (a) and (b): (a) estimating an actual future path of the vehicle on the basis of vehicle movement data and at least one of optically, acoustically, and tactilely indicating the estimated actual future path to the driver, (b) detecting the actual present path of the vehicle, estimating a present deviation of the detected actual present path from a desired present path and at least one of optically, acoustically, and tactilely indicating the estimated present deviation to the driver.

  • Patent number: 7411485
    Abstract: Method and apparatus (2) of a vehicle for alerting a driver of a vehicle when the vehicle deviates from a predefined driving area in a lane. The apparatus includes an image display unit (6) and a control unit (5) connected to each other to enable the apparatus to provide a visual warning via the image display unit when the vehicle is outside the predefined driving area and where the visual warning is displayed in the form of a solid or broken line on the side of the image display unit (6) that corresponds to the side of the vehicle where the deviation occurs.

  • Publication number: 20050174226
    Abstract: Display device for indicating an operational state of a vehicle including a display unit, where the device shows graphical information on the display unit in the form of an arc-shaped scale and a number of numerals corresponding to the value of the operational state. The device includes an arc-shaped field with an extent from a first angle ?1 to a second angle ?2 and with an outer delimiting line that extends along the inside of the arc-shaped scale. The arc-shaped field is divided into a first segment A, which extends from the first angle ?1 to a third variable angle ?, and a second segment B, which extends from the third variable angle ? to the second angle ?2, where the third variable angle ? to the second angle ?2. The third variable angle ?corresponds to the relevant operational state of the vehicle and where ?1????2, where the first segment A is arranged to assume a state that is visually distinguishable from the second area B.
