Display control device, display control method, and recording medium
A display control device performs display control on the displays of a vehicle. The display control device includes an obtainer and a display controller. The obtainer obtains switching information indicating that switching between driving modes including an autonomous driving mode and a manual driving mode is to be performed in the vehicle. When the switching information indicates that first switching which is switching from the autonomous driving mode to the manual driving mode is to be performed, the display controller causes, before completion of the first switching, (i) one of the displays (first display) to display first information indicating that the first switching is to be performed and third information indicating that another display (second display) is displaying second information for assisting the user of the vehicle in driving in the manual driving mode and (ii) the second display to display the second information.
1. A display control device that performs display control on a first display and a second display of a vehicle, the second display being different from the first display, the display control device comprising:
a processor; and
a memory including a program that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to perform functions, the functions including:
obtaining switching information indicating that switching between driving modes, including an autonomous driving mode and a manual driving mode, is to be performed in the vehicle; and
causing, before completion of a first switching, (i) the first display to display first information and third information and (ii) the second display to display second information when the switching information indicates that the first switching is to be performed, wherein
the first switching is from the autonomous driving mode to the manual driving mode,
the first information indicates that the first switching is to be performed,
the second information assists a user of the vehicle in driving in the manual driving mode, and
the third information, which is displayed on the first display, indicates that the second display, which is different from the first display, is displaying the second information that assists the user of the vehicle in driving in the manual mode.
2. The display control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the third information indicates a position of an area in the second display, which is displaying the second information.
3. The display control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the processor obtains gaze information indicating a gaze of the user,
the second information includes a plurality of notices, and
when the second display is displaying the plurality of notices, the processor identifies, according to the gaze of the user indicated by the gaze information, a notice displayed in an area at which the gaze of the user is directed and causes the second display to hide the notice identified by the processor.
4. The display control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein in a period until the completion of the first switching, the processor changes a display style of at least one of the first information, the second information, or the third information from a first display style to a second display style.
5. The display control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein when the processor obtains, before the completion of the first switching, new switching information indicating that a second switching is to be performed, the processor causes, before completion of the second switching, the first display to display fourth information indicating that the second switching is to be performed, the second switching being from the manual driving mode to the autonomous driving mode.
6. The display control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein in a period until the completion of the first switching, the processor changes a display style of at least one of the first information, the second information, or the third information from a first display style to a second display style, and
when the processor obtains, before the completion of the first switching, new switching information indicating that a second switching from the manual driving mode to the autonomous driving mode is to be performed,
before completion of the second switching, the processor (i) causes the first display to display fourth information indicating that the second switching is to be performed and (ii) changes the display style of at least one of the first information, the second information, or the third information from the second display style to the first display style.
7. The display control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first display is a head-up display, and
the second display is mounted on a dashboard of the vehicle.
8. A display control method for performing display control on a first display and a second display of a vehicle, the second display being different from the first display, the display control method comprising:
obtaining switching information indicating that switching between driving modes, including an autonomous driving mode and a manual driving mode, is to be performed in the vehicle; and
causing, before completion of a first switching, (i) the first display to display first information and third information and (ii) the second display to display second information when the switching information indicates that the first switching is to be performed, wherein
the first switching is from the autonomous driving mode to the manual driving mode,
the first information indicates that the first switching is to be performed,
the second information assists a user of the vehicle in driving in the manual driving mode, and
the third information indicates that the second display, which is different from the first display on which the third information is displayed, is displaying the second information that assists the user of the vehicle in driving in the manual mode.
9. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having stored there on a program for causing a computer to execute the display control method according to claim 8 .
