Abstract: A display control device includes an image creating unit, a display output unit, an update time measuring unit, and a blinking control unit. The blinking control unit determines a bright time and a dark time to be integral multiples of an update time so that a blinking frequency is within a tolerance frequency range. In a blinking control, the blinking control unit executes an on-display control to instruct the image creating unit to create a bright image for a number of times of a value obtained by dividing the bright time by the update time, and then executes an off-display control to instruct the image creating unit to create the dark image for a number of times of a value obtained by dividing the dark time by the update time, and repeats the on-display control and the off-display control until the blinking control ends.

Abstract: An in-vehicle display control device includes: an image acquisition unit that acquires a plurality of element images to be displayed on a vehicular display from each image generation unit; a change information acquisition unit that acquires color change information; and an image synthesizing unit that generates a synthetic image based on a color in the color change information and the plurality of element images. The image synthesizing unit generates the synthetic image by synthesizing the plurality of element images and a color change layer.

Abstract: A vehicle display device includes: a display; a vehicle information image generator; an external image obtaining device; a display controller that displays the vehicle information image and the external image on the display; and an external image display determination device that determines whether the display controller is going to display the not displayed external image. When the display controller is going to display the not displayed external image, the display controller displays the external image, which the display controller is going to display, on the display with gradually increasing brightness of the external image from the brightness that is lower by a predetermined amount than original brightness to predetermined brightness that is determined based on the original brightness.

Abstract: A vehicular notification control apparatus includes: an operation acceptance portion that accepts an instruction operation performed by a non-driving occupant for an equipment device providing a function available to a user in a vehicle interior; an output data acquisition portion that acquires output data in response to the instruction operation for notifying the driver of a result of processing; a notification control portion that makes a notification to the driver; and a drive load determination portion that determines whether drive load of the driver is high. The notification control portion makes the notification when the drive load determination portion determines that the drive load is not high at a time the output data acquisition portion has acquired the output data. The notification control portion withholds making the notification until the drive load determination portion determines that the drive load is not high.

Abstract: A vehicle display control device includes a timing determination unit that determines timing when it is authenticated that the mobile terminal is an object that can provide the mobile screen information after the start of processing of connection between an HCU and the mobile terminal. A display control unit displays a during-connection-processing image indicating that connection with the mobile terminal is being processed, on the display device after the timing is determined by the timing determination unit until the mobile screen information becomes possible to be displayed on the display device. The display control unit does not display the during-connection-processing image on the display device after the connection processing is started until the timing is determined by the timing determination unit.
