HEADREST AND HEADREST SYSTEM
The invention relates inter alia to a headrest ( 12 ) for a vehicle seat ( 11 ) comprising a head contact part ( 21 ) that can be supported on the vehicle seat ( 11 ) by a mount or that is formed integrally with a part of the vehicle seat ( 11 ), the head contact part ( 21 ) has at least one projection system ( 26 ) that has at least one projector ( 19 a, 19 b ) that can be connected to a power supply of the vehicle, and that can project a beam, such as light information, onto a projection surface ( 22, 24 ).
1 . A headrest for a vehicle seat, the headrest comprising:
a head contact part that can be supported on the vehicle seat by a mount or that is formed integrally with a part of the vehicle seat,
a projection region in the vehicle offset from the head contact part, and
a projection system on the head contact part having at least one projector that can be connected to a power supply of the vehicle, and that can project a beam onto the projection region.
2 . The headrest according to claim 1 , wherein the projector can be oriented on the head contact part such that the light information strikes a projection surface forming the projection region of the vehicle passenger compartment.
3 . The headrest according to claim 1 , wherein the projector transmits a beam that generates a self-luminous hologram at the projection region in the vehicle passenger compartment.
4 . The headrest according to claim 1 , wherein the projection system has a controller that controls a beam state.
5 . The headrest according to claim 4 , in that wherein the projection system has at least one sensor that is connected to the controller for transmitting a signal thereto.
6 . The headrest according to claim 1 , wherein the projection system is connected to a computer, and an image generated by the computer can be displayed by the projector in the projection region.
7 . The headrest according to claim 4 , wherein the controller is in addition manually actuatable.
8 . A headrest system comprising the headrest according to claim 1 , and a projection surface of the vehicle passenger compartment forms the projection region.
9 . The headrest system according to claim 8 , further comprising:
a deploying device associated with the projection surface for moving the projection surface between a stowage position and a stretched position.
10 . The headrest system according to either claim 8 wherein each projector is associated with a respective such projection surface.
11 . The headrest system according to claim 8 , wherein a plurality of the projectors are associated with one projection surface.
