Spatiotemporal displays for set speed deviation of a vehicle
View Patent ↗Arrangements described herein can display a set speed deviation for a vehicle using spatiotemporal patterns. A set speed and an actual speed for a vehicle can be acquired. A deviation between the set speed and the actual speed of the vehicle can be determined. Responsive to determining the deviation between the predetermined set speed and the actual speed, a spatiotemporal pattern can be displayed within the vehicle. The spatiotemporal pattern can indicate to a user the deviation between the set speed and the actual speed via the spatiotemporal pattern. In one or more arrangements, the spatiotemporal pattern can be a repeating wave pattern.
1. A method of displaying set speed deviation for a vehicle, the method comprising:
acquiring a set speed for the vehicle;
acquiring, using one or more sensors, an actual speed of the vehicle;
determining a deviation between the set speed and the actual speed; and
responsive to determining the deviation between the set speed and the actual speed, causing a spatiotemporal pattern to be displayed within the vehicle, the spatiotemporal pattern indicating the deviation between the set speed and the actual speed via a repeating pattern, wherein the spatiotemporal pattern includes a wave pattern having a wave source, the wave pattern moving away from the wave source.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein a frequency of the wave pattern indicates a magnitude of deviation between the set speed and the actual speed, wherein a higher frequency wave pattern indicates larger deviation between the set speed and the actual speed.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein a direction of the wave pattern indicates whether the actual speed is greater than or less than the set speed.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein a wave pattern moving in a downward direction within an in-vehicle display indicates the actual speed is less than the set speed, and a wave pattern moving in an upward direction within the in-vehicle display indicates the actual speed is greater than the set speed.
5. A method of displaying set speed deviation for a vehicle, the method comprising:
acquiring a set speed for the vehicle;
acquiring, using one or more sensors, an actual speed of the vehicle;
determining a deviation between the set speed and the actual speed; and
responsive to determining the deviation between the set speed and the actual speed, causing a spatiotemporal pattern to be displayed within the vehicle, the spatiotemporal pattern indicating the deviation between the set speed and the actual speed via a repeating pattern, wherein the spatiotemporal pattern includes a first wave pattern having a first wave source and a second wave pattern having a second wave source, the first wave pattern indicative of the set speed and the second wave pattern indicative of the actual speed, the deviation between the set speed and the actual speed indicated by the difference in frequency between the first wave pattern and the second wave pattern.
6. A display system for a vehicle, the system comprising:
a vehicle component configured to acquire a set speed for the vehicle;
a sensor system, the sensor system being configured to acquire an actual speed of the vehicle; and
a processor operatively connected to the vehicle component and the sensor system, the processor being programmed to initiate executable operations comprising:
determining a deviation between the set speed and the actual speed; and
responsive to determining the deviation between the set speed and the actual speed, causing a spatiotemporal pattern to be displayed within the vehicle, the spatiotemporal pattern indicating the deviation between the set speed and the actual speed via a repeating wave pattern.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the vehicle component is an input system configured to receive an input indicating a set speed from a user.
8. The system of claim 6 , wherein the vehicle component is a component of an autonomous driving system of the vehicle.
9. The system of claim 6 , wherein the spatiotemporal pattern includes a wave pattern having a wave source, the wave pattern moving away from the wave source.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the wave pattern is displayed within a vehicle icon.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein a frequency of the wave pattern indicates an amount of deviation between the set speed and the actual speed, wherein a higher frequency wave pattern indicates larger deviation between the set speed and the actual speed.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein a direction of the wave pattern indicates whether the actual speed is greater than or less than the set speed.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein a wave pattern moving in a rearward direction within the vehicle icon indicates the actual speed is less than the set speed, and a wave pattern moving in a forward direction within the vehicle icon indicates the actual speed is greater than the set speed.
14. The system of claim 6 , wherein the spatiotemporal pattern includes a first wave pattern having a first wave source and a second wave pattern having a second wave source, the first wave pattern indicative of the set speed and the second wave pattern indicative of the actual speed, the deviation between the set speed and the actual speed indicated by the difference in frequency between the first wave pattern and the second wave pattern.
