  • Publication number: 20210034207
    Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide an operation image display device, an operation image display system, and an operation image display program for controlling the display of operation images according to the likelihood of a user using a function. An operation image display device is mounted in a vehicle and comprises: a display; a control unit; a vehicle information input/output unit; a storage unit; a sensor information acquisition unit; and an operation information acquisition unit. The control unit determines functions having a high likelihood of use, on the basis of at least one of vehicle information, sensor information, and operation history information, and selects and displays selection images corresponding to the functions having a high likelihood of use.

  • Patent number: 10459225
    Abstract: A display device includes: a control unit that causes any one of light sources to emit light, each of the light sources emitting light of a different color, generates illumination light of a color from the light emitted from the light sources, using a field-sequential method in which the light sources for emitting light are switched in sequence, and reflects toward a screen, through a reflection unit, the light that corresponds to the display image from among the illumination light; a temperature detection unit for detecting the temperature of a display element; and a temperature adjustment unit for adjusting the temperature of the display element. The control unit stops supplying current to the light sources and supplies current at a first current value only to the temperature adjustment unit when the detected temperature is within a low-temperature or high-temperature non-displayed range of the display element.

  • Publication number: 20160335959
    Abstract: A light intensity detection signal indicative of the intensity of light emitted by a light source is acquired, and on the basis of the light intensity detection signal and a set reference signal, a comparison circuit generates a comparison signal indicative of turning ON and OFF. Within a sub-frame period, a logic circuit repeats turning ON/OFF based on a pulse signal inputted from the comparison circuit, and outputs a lighting signal for causing the light source to emit light in accordance with the reference signal which is a set value, and outputs a non-lighting signal for causing the light source to not emit light in accordance with a set value.
