  • Publication number: 20240262290
    Abstract: The invention relates to a monitoring system for a vehicle. A camera is mounted on the exterior of the vehicle. A display device is mounted in an interior space of the vehicle. A control device presents an image scanned by means of the camera on the display device. The display device comprises a screen and a reflective element that presents to a person on-board the vehicle an image that appears at a point which intersects an optical axis of the camera.

  • Publication number: 20230088007
    Abstract: A combined display system includes a plurality of displays which are each configured to generate a partial beam of a combined projection light beam having an associated partial display content, the display surfaces of which are adjacent to one another and offset with respect to one another in the beam propagation direction and/or have different spatial orientations; and a combiner screen which is continuously contiguous, is reflective on the user side and preferably transparent on the rear, and is mountable or mounted in the beam path of the combined projection light beam in the vehicle in front of the windscreen such that behind the latter, a virtual image is generated, which is displayed in the user's field of view and is composed of the partial display contents of the plurality of displays.

  • Patent number: 11372242
    Abstract: A head-up display system for a motor vehicle includes a projection unit for providing a display image; a transparent holographic light guide display panel with a display surface in order to output a display image coupled into the display panel via a coupling-in region on a display surface, and a light guide which runs in a non-linear manner in order to guide a display image from the projection unit to the coupling-in region of the display panel.

  • Patent number: 10739588
    Abstract: A projection apparatus for a head-up display includes an imaging unit designed to produce an image, a projection unit designed to project the image produced by the imaging unit via a projection path onto a projection surface. The projection device includes a convex optical element arranged in the projection path, which is provided with a circular polarizer or is formed as a circular polarizer. The invention further relates to a head-up display having such a projection apparatus and to a corresponding vehicle having such a projection apparatus.

  • Patent number: 10578862
    Abstract: An automotive head-up display comprises an image generating device for generating a virtual image that is visible from an eyebox. The image generating device is designed such that the virtual image has a bi-ocular image area and at least one mono-ocular image area, which are visible from the eyebox. By means of the head-up display, a large overall image width of the virtual image can be implemented, without enlarging the optical apertures and thereby the required installation space for the head-up display.
