Display system
View Patent ↗A display system of the present disclosure forms an AR route by shifting node information included in road map data to a lane on which a subject vehicle is to travel on the basis of lane information. Thus, it is possible to display the AR route which matches a shape of a route on which the subject vehicle is to travel without providing a feeling of strangeness while resolving inconvenience that the AR route is largely displaced from the route on which the subject vehicle is to travel at positions such as an intersection and a branch point, where a plurality of roads intersect.
1. A display system for displaying an AR (Augmented Reality) route which is a virtual image so as to be superimposed on a real image which is seen by a user, the display system comprising:
a processor that forms the AR route; and
a display that displays the AR route as a virtual image,
wherein the processor inputs a node coordinate, included in road map data, of a center of a road on which a subject vehicle is to travel,
the processor forms the AR route by shifting the node coordinate included in the road map data onto a lane on which the subject vehicle is to travel on a basis of lane information,
a route section of the AR route includes a plurality of nodes,
the processor performs a process including:
connecting a start node of the plurality of nodes to an end node of the plurality of nodes in a first case where a distance of each of the plurality of nodes from a line which connects the start node to the end node of the plurality of nodes is less than or equal to a threshold; and
dividing the route section into two route sections in a second case where the distance of at least one of the plurality of nodes from the line which connects the start node to the end node of the plurality of nodes is greater than the threshold, and
in the second case, the processor divides the route section at a node of the at least one of the plurality of nodes to which the distance from the line is greatest.
2. The display system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the lane information includes a number of lanes, and
the processor changes a shifting amount of the node coordinate in accordance with the number of lanes.
3. The display system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor changes the shifting amount of the node coordinate further in accordance with whether or not a road is a one-way road.
4. The display system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor shifts the node coordinate further on a basis of second lane information of a second road after the subject vehicle turns left or right or third lane information of a third road on which the subject vehicle is to follow after a branch point.
5. A display apparatus which causes a driver to view a virtual image by projecting light on a windshield, the display apparatus comprising:
the display system according to claim 1 .
6. The display system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor repeats the process for each of the two route sections.
7. The display system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor performs curve interpolation using start nodes and end nodes of the two route sections to form the AR route along the route section.
