Publication number: 20240404489Abstract: An augmented reality display system included in a vehicle generates an augmented reality display, on one or more transparent surfaces of the vehicle. The augmented reality display can include an indicator of the vehicle speed which is spatially positioned according to the speed of the vehicle relative to the local speed limit. The augmented reality display can include display elements which conform to environmental objects and can obscure and replace content displayed on the objects. The augmented reality display can include display elements which indicate a position of environmental objects which are obscured from direct perception through the transparent surface. The augmented reality display can include display elements which simulate one or more particular environmental objects in the environment, based on monitoring manual driving performance of the vehicle by a driver. The augmented reality display can include display elements which identify environmental objects and particular zones in the environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 9, 2024Publication date: December 5, 2024Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Kjell F. Bronder, Scott M. Herz, Karlin Y. Bark

Patent number: 11953339Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for interaction between a user and a machine. In one implementation, machine status information for the machine is received at a dedicated machine component. The machine status information is published onto a distributed node system network of the machine. The machine status information is ingested at a primary interface controller, and an interactive user interface is generated using the primary interface controller. The interactive user interface is generated based on the machine status information. In some implementations, input is received from the user at the primary interface controller through the interactive user interface, and a corresponding action is delegated to one or more subsystems of the machine using the distributed node system network.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2021Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Inventors: Patrick S. Piemonte, Jason D. Gosnell, Kjell F. Bronder, Daniel De Rocha Rosario, Shaun D. Budhram, Scott Herz

Patent number: 10446018Abstract: Some embodiments provide a warning prompt control module which adjustably controls the display of warning prompts for vehicle elements in a vehicle, based on a determined profile with which the occupant is associated. An occupant detected in the vehicle interior can be associated with a profile based on a sensor data representation of the occupant correlating with a sensor data representation included in the profile, accessing a profile from a device supporting the occupant, etc. A profile can include interaction history data which indicate historical interactions with warning prompts for a vehicle element. Displaying a warning prompt for a vehicle element can be adjustably controlled based on the interaction history data, included in a profile, which is associated with the vehicle element.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2016Date of Patent: October 15, 2019Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Byron B.

Publication number: 20140282099Abstract: Techniques are provided for concurrently displaying a plurality of media items from different sources, such as different computing devices of a user or social network providers with which the user has an account or with which the user has a social connection to an account. Media items may include digital images, video, text, and executables, or icons thereof. The media items may be analyzed to identify one or more different sets of media items, each set being associated with different criteria. Example criteria include a particular time range, a particular person, and a particular location. Once a set of media items is identified, each media item in the set is assigned to a group based on grouping criteria and displayed based on the group to which the media item belongs.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2013Publication date: September 18, 2014Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Kjell F.
