Abstract

The present disclosure provides a display system that includes an acquisition device, a detection device, a display processing device, and a correction processing device. The acquisition device acquires speed information indicating a speed of a moving body. The detection device detects a posture variation amount of the moving body. The display processing device controls a display position of an image based on a reference position and a correction amount. The correction processing device sets the correction amount based on the speed and the posture variation amount. The correction processing device estimates whether or not the correction amount becomes equal to or more than a predetermined amount based on the speed and the posture variation amount, and adjusts the correction amount based on the estimation result.

Claims (46)

1. A display system comprising:

an acquisition device that acquires speed information indicating a speed of a moving body;

a detection device that detects a posture variation amount, which is an angular velocity of the moving body;

a display processing device that controls a display position of an image based on a reference position and a correction amount; and

a correction processing device that sets the correction amount based on the speed and the posture variation amount, wherein

the correction processing device

estimates whether or not the correction amount becomes equal to or more than a predetermined amount based on the speed and the posture variation amount, and

adjusts the correction amount based on the estimation result,

wherein

the correction processing device

sets a first threshold based on the speed, and

sets the correction amount based on the posture variation amount during a period in which the posture variation amount is equal to or less than the first threshold,

the display processing device returns the display position to the reference position during a period in which the posture variation amount is larger than the first threshold, and

the correction processing device sets the first threshold such that the first threshold increases as the speed increases.

2. The display system according to claim 1 , wherein the correction processing device resets the correction amount to zero when the angular velocity is larger than the first threshold.

3. The display system according to claim 1 , wherein the correction processing device reduces the correction amount by a predetermined amount so that the correction amount approaches zero when the angular velocity is larger than the first threshold.

4. The display system according to claim 1 , wherein in a case where the angular velocity is larger than the first threshold,

the correction processing device

reduces the correction amount by a predetermined amount so that the correction amount approaches zero when the correction amount is equal to or more than a second threshold, and

resets the correction amount to zero when the correction amount is smaller than the second threshold.

5. The display system according to claim 2 , wherein the correction processing device includes

a first calculator that calculates an angle of the moving body from the angular velocity, and

a second calculator that calculates the correction amount by converting the angle into a number of pixels, and

the second calculator

calculates the correction amount based on a difference between the angle and a predetermined angle or a difference between the number of pixels and a predetermined number of pixels, and

sets the predetermined angle or the predetermined number of pixels so that the correction amount becomes zero when the angular velocity is larger than the first threshold.

6. The display system according to claim 2 , wherein

the correction processing device includes

a first calculator that calculates an angle of the moving body from the angular velocity, and

a second calculator that calculates the correction amount by converting the angle into a number of pixels, and

the first calculator resets the angle to zero when the angular velocity is larger than the first threshold.

7. The display system according to claim 1 , wherein

the display processing device controls a display position of the image based on the reference position, the correction amount, and a shift amount, and

the correction processing device sets the shift amount based on the correction amount of when the angular velocity is larger than the first threshold.

8. The display system according to claim 1 , further comprising a projection device that projects light representing the image.

9. The display system according to claim 8 wherein

the moving body is a vehicle, and

the image is a virtual image displayed in front of a windshield of the vehicle.

10. A display system comprising:

an acquisition device that acquires speed information indicating a speed of a moving body;

a detection device that detects a posture variation amount of the moving body;

a display processing device that controls a display position of an image based on a reference position and a correction amount; and

a correction processing device that sets the correction amount based on the speed and the posture variation amount, wherein

the correction processing device

sets a first threshold such that the first threshold increases as the speed increases, and sets the correction amount based on the posture variation amount during a period in which the posture variation amount is equal to or less than the first threshold, and

the display processing device returns the display position to the reference position during a period in which the posture variation amount is larger than the first threshold.
