Abstract: A heads up display system includes a display medium in combination with a dock or support configured to receiving a portable electronic device. The display of the portable electronic device is projected by the display medium, such as in a forward direction. The vehicle dashboard or a surrounding area can have an integral dock, which can be at a top of a gauge visor, bottom of a gauge visor, is displace below vehicle gauges. In each case, an aperture may be provide to provide a path from the display of the electronic device to the display medium. In some embodiments, the heads up display system may include a dedicated display that mirrors the display of the portable electronic device, via a wired or wireless connection.

Abstract: A vehicular heads-up-display system includes a windshield-mountable partially reflective mirror that allows a vehicle user to view material displayed on the partially reflective mirror while, at the same time, viewing the road ahead without obstruction. A mount configured to accept a portable electronic device, such as a smartphone, may be situated to project the display of the portable electronic device to the windshield mountable partially reflective mirror when mounted in a vehicle. A tactile input device, including a wireless interface for entry of and transmission of input from a vehicle user to a smartphone may be configured for mounting on a vehicle steering wheel.

Abstract: Provided is a heads up display system having a platform having a receiver configured to removably receive and physically support a mobile phone and/or tablet having a display screen, a medium oriented at an angle with respect to the platform, and an opening defined in the platform between the receiver and the medium. The system may include a couple configured to couple the platform to a structure or surface. The coupler can be configured to enable the platform to be coupled to the surface or structure at a selected angle.

Abstract: Provided is a system for presenting information to a driver in a vehicle with a steering wheel and dashboard and/or windshield includes a first enclosure that supports a mobile device and a combiner glass (e.g., half reflective mirror) on the dashboard or windshield. A second bracket releasably attaches a tactile input device to the steering wheel. The tactile input device generates signals representing motion of the driver's finger or thumb across a touch pad and the actuation of an entry key of the device. The tactile input device and the mobile device communicate wirelessly, in preferred embodiments. The enclosure supports the mobile device to have an orientation with respect to the combiner glass that produces a heads-up display that can be controlled by the driver's interaction with the tactile input device. Advantageously, the present invention provides systems and methods that minimize visual, mechanical and cognitive distractions.

Abstract: A vehicular heads-up-display system includes an apparatus having a base configured to receive and maintain a pico-projector case in combination with a handheld electronic device, and to output optical transmissions from the pico-projector case to an at least partially reflective surface to form a heads-up display. The partially reflective surface may be a combiner and/or mirror coupled to a base comprising the holder. The handheld electronic device may be a smartphone. For example, the system can be used to cause a pico-projector to project information from a smartphone to a partially reflective mirror for viewing by a vehicle operator.

Abstract: Provided is a system and method that captures image information internal and/or external to a vehicle for presentation to a driver, use by the vehicle, and/or for interacting with other internal or external systems. The system can include a vehicle-mounted imager configured to capture images and image information, a vehicle-mounted display, and a visual information processor configured to combine images from the vehicle-mounted imager with extra-image information to generate an output to the display.
