Abstract: A display device 100 for displaying content on a display 12, integrated with a touch panel 23, includes position detection means 32 for detecting a position indicated on the display; and content layout determination means 33 for determining a layout of a plurality of contents displayed on the display wherein, when the position detection means detects that a predetermined position on the display is indicated or a display position of a predetermined content is indicated, the content layout determination means moves at least one of displayed contents, based on a priority of displayed contents predetermined according to the display contents displayed on the display, and displays a soft key at a position where a line of sight movement amount is smaller than a line of sight movement amount of the content.

Abstract: A vehicle operation input apparatus includes: a display having a screen; and a control unit configured to determine whether or not a hand of a driver has been removed from a steering wheel, and after determining that the hand of the driver has been removed from the steering wheel in a situation where an operation menu is not displayed on the screen, control the display such that the operation menu is displayed on the screen.

Abstract: A display device for vehicle includes an LCD panel that has a first pixel region and a second pixel region. The display controller portion displays a meter image on the first pixel region at a regular time and a specific time, and displays an outside image on the second pixel region at the specific time. The display controller portion controls a gradient ratio of pixel in the first pixel region as a meter image gradient ratio, and controls a gradient ratio of pixel in the second pixel region as an outside image gradient ratio. The display controller portion switches and performs a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, the display controller portion keeps both the meter image gradient ratio and the outside image gradient ratio to the maximum ratio R1max and R2max, and varies a source luminance of a light source according to an adjust value which is in a side brighter than a reference value Cb.

Abstract: A simple and inexpensive seatbelt use indicating apparatus that allows easy recognition of the states of use/non-use of the seatbelt is provided. The apparatus includes a design figure that implies whether the seatbelt is used or not, and a lamp portion that indicates the use or the non-use of the seatbelt of each seat location via the color of light. The lamp portion causes two-color LEDs to glow corresponding to indications of the seat locations in accordance with the on/off states of buckle switches provided in seatbelt devices. Whether a seatbelt is used or not is indicated by changing the color of light of a corresponding LED, that is, changing the fashion of indication. The glow of LEDs is changed between red and green. Red glow of an LED indicates that a corresponding seatbelt is used, and green glow of the LED indicates that the corresponding seatbelt is not used.

Abstract: The alert sound having specific frequencies and volume is repeated at a different cycle depending upon each warning level. Additionally, or alternatively, the audible alert corresponding to the lowest warning level is activated before activating the audible alert corresponding the present warring level.
