  • Publication number: 20240013501
    Abstract: A motion sickness regulation device includes processing circuitry to generate stimulus information to be used for displaying a motion sickness regulation image for regulating a level of motion sickness occurring to a user viewing a gaze region, as a region in which real scenery is visible or a region in which a gaze image as an image including a gaze target is displayed, based on movement of the scenery or the gaze image in the gaze region; and to generate the motion sickness regulation image based on the stimulus information, to specify a motion sickness regulation region as a region as part or a whole of a region excluding the gaze region, and to have the motion sickness regulation image displayed in the motion sickness regulation region.

  • Publication number: 20220238083
    Abstract: An information processing device includes an acquisition unit and a control unit. The acquisition unit acquires prediction information indicating whether or not a mobile object is scheduled to rotate at a first place. The control unit makes a display device display motion sickness prevention information moving in a first direction based on a direction in which the mobile object is scheduled to rotate or in a direction opposite to the first direction before the mobile object reaches the first place when the prediction information indicates that the mobile object is scheduled to rotate at the first place.

  • Patent number: 9607430
    Abstract: A model generator 2 arranges a three-dimensional model on a base line. A model renderer 4 renders the three-dimensional model. A distance map generator 5 converts each depth of the three-dimensional model rendered into a distance from the base line. An alpha map generator 7 converts the distance from the base line into an alpha value.

  • Patent number: 9057623
    Abstract: A navigation device includes a road periphery display change unit 3 that selects a road R which connects to, intersects with, or is adjacent to a guidance route/a travel plan route 21 from a map database 5, and displays the road in a high contrast on the inside of a predetermined distance from the guidance route/the travel plan route 21, displays the road in a low contrast on the outside of the predetermined distance, and displays the road by changing continuously or stepwise a gradation in an intermediate region between the inside and the outside.

  • Publication number: 20130047106
    Abstract: Evaluation values are set for placement candidate positions as indices for determining appropriate positions as positions for relocating objects; among from the placement candidate positions set for an object that comes later in an order of display, the placement candidate position that is set by an evaluation value indicative of being most appropriate as a position to be relocated is extracted, and whether or not the object that comes later in the order of display is adapted to a likely placement at the corresponding placement candidate position is determined; and the object is relocated at the placement candidate position that is determined the likely placement and drawn.
