Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Informationseinrichtung für Kraftfahrzeuge mit einer Verarbei­ tungseinrichtung, die anzeigbare Informationssignale in Form von Symbolen in Abhängig­ keit von Sensoren erfaßten Meßsignalen und/oder von außen erhaltenen Signalen bildet.The invention relates to an information device for motor vehicles with a processing Depending on the device, the displayable information signals in the form of symbols speed of sensors detected measurement signals and / or signals received from the outside.

Verschiedene den Fahrbetrieb betreffende Informationen, wie beispielsweise die Fahrge­ schwindigkeit, Daten der Abstandsregelung oder Informationen über den fahrbaren Zu­ stand, werden herkömmlich durch fest an der Armaturentafel vorgesehene Instrumente angezeigt.Various information relating to driving, such as the vehicle speed, distance control data or information about the drivable Zu stand, are traditionally provided by instruments permanently provided on the dashboard displayed.

Um den Fahrer auf bestimmte wichtige Fahrzustände aufmerksam zu machen, wird in jüngster Zeit immer mehr vorgeschlagen, wichtige Meß- und Warninformationen im Ge­ sichtsfeld des Fahrers mit Hilfe eine Head-up-Displays oder freiprogrammierbaren Anzeigen darzustellen. Bei Head-up-Displays wird ein virtuelles Bild erzeugt, das in einer bestimmten scheinbaren Entfernung in die Außensicht eingespiegelt und ihr dadurch überlagert wird. Solche Head-up-Displays haben den Vorteil, daß der Blick des Fahrers nicht von der Außenwelt abgewendet werden muß und so die Aufmerksamkeit nach vorn auf das Fahrge­ schehen gerichtet und das periphere Sehen erhalten bleibt. Die Anforderungen an die visuelle Aufmerksamkeit des Fahrers infolge von auftretenden Kontrastproblemen, vor allem durch den sehr hellen Hintergrund und die Lesbarkeit der Anzeige sowie durch die Verar­ beitbarkeit der aufgenommenen Bilder sind jedoch bei solchen Anzeigen sehr hoch.In order to draw the driver's attention to certain important driving conditions, in recently proposed more and more, important measurement and warning information in Ge driver's field of vision using a head-up display or freely programmable displays to represent. With head-up displays, a virtual image is generated, which in a certain apparent distance is reflected in the outside view and is thereby superimposed on it. Such head-up displays have the advantage that the driver's view is not from the Outside world must be averted and so attention to the Fahrge forward are directed and peripheral vision is preserved. The requirements for visual driver attention due to emerging contrast problems, especially due to the very light background and legibility of the display as well as the processing The usability of the recorded images is very high in such displays.

Freiprogrammierbare Anzeigen werden vorzugsweise ebenfalls auf der Amaturentafel so angeordnet, daß der Fahrer während der Fahrt seine Blickrichtung nicht nach rechts oder links ändern muß.Freely programmable displays are also preferably shown on the dashboard arranged that the driver does not look to the right or while driving left must change.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, mit einer möglichst geringen Anzahl von wech­ selnden Anzeigebildern einen möglichst großen Informationsgehalt für den Fahrer zu schaffen, wobei die angezeigten Informationen selbsterklärend dargestellt werden sollen. The object of the invention is to use as few as possible the display information to the driver as much as possible create, the information displayed should be presented in a self-explanatory manner.  

Die Aufgabe wird bei der gattungsgemäßen Informationseinrichtung durch die kennzeich­ nenden Merkmale des Patentanspruchs gelöst. Die Unteransprüche stellen dabei vorteil­ hafte Weiterbildungen dar.The task is characterized in the generic information facility by the nenden features of the claim solved. The subclaims are advantageous represent continuing education.

Erfindungsgemäß erfolgt eine Veränderung der symbolhaften Darstellung mindestens eines der Informationssignale in Beziehung zu den betragsmäßigen Werten der zugehörigen Signale, wobei die Beziehung zu den betragsmäßigen Werten vorteilhafterweise durch eine veränderliche Größe der Darstellung der Informationssignale hergestellt wird. Gemäß einer Weiterbildung wird mindestens eines der Informationssignale in Abhängigkeit der betrags­ mäßigen Größe des jeweiligen Signals farblich veränderlich abgebildet. Um eine selbster­ klärende Wirkung der Anzeige zu erhalten, werden die Informationssignale bevorzugt bild­ haft dargestellt. Durch die kontinuierliche Veränderung der einzelnen bildhaften Darstel­ lungen und damit des nicht laufend wechselnden Anzeigebildes wird außerdem die Verarbeitbarkeit der Informationen für den Fahrzeugführer verbessert.According to the invention, the symbolic representation of at least one is changed of the information signals in relation to the absolute values of the associated ones Signals, the relationship to the absolute values advantageously by a variable size of the representation of the information signals is produced. According to one Training is at least one of the information signals depending on the amount moderate size of the respective signal is shown in different colors. To yourself To obtain clarifying effect of the display, the information signals are preferred image depicted cautiously. Through the continuous change of the individual pictorial representation lungs and thus the non-continuously changing display image is also the Processability of information for the driver improved.

Weiterhin kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Darstellung mindestens eines der Informations­ signale nur nach Überschreiten eines Grenzwertes des dem Informationssignal zugeordne­ ten Signals erfolgt. Diese Ausgestaltung der Erfindung weist dadurch den Vorteil auf, daß das im Sichtbereich des Fahrers befindliche Anzeigebild nicht mit einer großen Anzahl von Darstellungen überladen wird.Furthermore, it can be provided that the representation of at least one of the information signals only after a limit value of the information signal is exceeded th signal. This embodiment of the invention has the advantage that the display image in the driver's field of vision does not have a large number of Representations is overloaded.

Nachfolgend wir die Erfindung anhand von Ausführungsbeispielen dargestellt. Die zugehö­ rigen Zeichnungen zeigen:The invention is illustrated below using exemplary embodiments. The associated The following drawings show:

Fig. 3a bis 3e Anzeigebilder mit in üblicher Tachometerform bei unterschiedlichen Betriebszuständen des Fahrzeuges. Fig. 3a to 3e display images in a conventional tachometer form at different operating conditions of the vehicle.

Die in Fig. 1 dargestellte erfindungsgemäße Informationseinrichtung mit einem Head-up- Display weist im wesentlichen eine Verarbeitungseinrichtung 1 auf, in welcher von Senso­ ren 2a bis 2n stammende Signale M1 bis Mn verarbeitet werden. Solche Signale können bei einer eingeschalteten Abstandsregelung der Abstand zum vorausfahrenden Fahrzeug die Geschwindigkeit des vorausfahrenden Fahrzeuges oder die eigene Geschwindigkeit sowie die Information über den Fahrbahnzustand oder die herrschende Sichtweite oder auch per Funk eingespielte Verkehrsschilder sein. Denkbar ist dabei auch die Anzeige der eingestellten Fahrgeschwindigkeit bei einer Geschwindigkeitsregeleinrichtung. Die in ein anzeigbares Format gebrachten Informationssignale I1 bis In werden Mittel 3 zugeführt, die über ihre optische Einrichtung die Informationssignale I1 bis In auf die Windschutzscheibe 4 des Fahrzeuges einspiegeln.The information device according to the invention shown in FIG. 1 with a head-up display essentially has a processing device 1 in which signals M1 to Mn originating from sensors 2 a to 2 n are processed. When the distance control is switched on, such signals can be the distance to the vehicle in front, the speed of the vehicle in front or one's own speed as well as information about the state of the road or the prevailing visibility or traffic signs recorded by radio. It is also conceivable to display the set driving speed in a speed control device. The information signals I1 to In brought into a displayable format are supplied with means 3 which, via their optical device, reflect the information signals I1 to In onto the windshield 4 of the vehicle.

Das als Pixelgrafik in linearer Form ausgebildete Anzeigebild, wie es in Fig. 2 gezeigt ist, weist drei Bereiche A, B und C auf, in denen Informationssignale I1 bis I5 dargestellt sind. Bei einer eingeschalteten Abstandsregelung wird das Informationssignal I1 als Rückansicht eines Kraftfahrzeuges eingespiegelt. Sowie die eigene Geschwindigkeit I2 sowohl als dunkler Balken als auch als Ziffer im Bereich C eingeblendet. Weiterhin ist die Fahrge­ schwindigkeit des vorausfahrenden Fahrzeuges als Informationssignal I3 wiedergegeben.The display image formed as a pixel graphic in linear form, as shown in FIG. 2, has three areas A, B and C, in which information signals I1 to I5 are shown. When the distance control is switched on, the information signal I1 is reflected as a rear view of a motor vehicle. As well as your own speed I2 both as a dark bar and as a number in area C. Furthermore, the speed of the vehicle in front is reproduced as information signal I3.

Der Bereich B des Anzeigebildes steht Warninformationen I4 der unterschiedlichsten Art zur Verfügung, wobei diese in Abhängigkeit einer eingestellten Priorität sichtbar gemacht werden. Neben Fahrbahnzustandsinformationen, wie Glätte, oder Sichtweitewarnungen können in Zukunft auch Verkehrsschilder über Funk eingeblendet werden.The area B of the display image is available for various types of warning information I4 Available, depending on a set priority made visible will. In addition to road condition information such as smoothness or visibility warnings In the future, traffic signs can also be shown via radio.

In den weiteren Fig. 2a bis 2d ist die kontinuierliche Veränderung des angezeigten Informationssignals I1 in Abhängigkeit der betragsmäßigen Werte des Abstandes zu einem vorausfahrenden Fahrzeug in vier Stufen gezeigt. Mit geringer werdenden Abstand zum vorausfahrenden Fahrzeug rückt nicht nur die symbolische Ansicht des Fahrzeuges auf der im Gesichtsfeld befindlichen Anzeige immer näher; in hoher Gefahrensituation sind auch die Rücklichter des Fahrzeugs nicht mehr dargestellt. Im Gegensatz zu einer zweiten Ziffern­ darstellung neben der Geschwindigkeitsanzeige I2, I3, I5 ist eine sehr gute Verarbeitbarkeit für den Fahrzeugführer gegeben, da dieser das Näherkommen des symbolischen Fahr­ zeuges sofort mit Gefahr assoziiert. Eine andere Möglichkeit des Anzeigebildes, nämlich die übliche Tachometerform, ist in den Fig. 3a bis 3e gezeigt. In Fig. 3a beinhaltet die Anzeige nur die Information I2 über die Geschwindigkeit des eigenen Fahrzeuges, es ist weder eine Abstandsregelung noch eine Geschwindigkeitsregelung eingeschaltet. Gefahrensituationen treten ebenfalls nicht auf. Im Anzeigebild der Fig. 3b ist über das Informationssignal I1 zu erkennen, daß die Abstandsregelung eingeschaltet wurde, das Fahrzeug jedoch noch nicht an ein vorausfahrendes Fahrzeug angedocket hat, da der Abstand zum vorausfahrenden Fahrzeug noch zu groß ist. Bei dem Anzeigebild der Fig. 3c wurde bereits an das vorausfahrende Fahrzeug angedockt. Die Information erhält der Fahrer über das Signal I3. Es wird außerdem die eigene Geschwindigkeit I2, sowie die eingestellte Geschwindigkeit I5 der Geschwindigkeitsregeleinrichtung anzeigt. In Fig. 3d wird außerdem eine Warninformation I4, daß eine eingeschränkte Sichtweite wegen Nebels vorherrscht, ausgegeben. In der Fig. 3e wird durch die Information I2 und I3 signalisiert, daß das Fahrzeug die Geschwindigkeit des vorausfahrenden Fahrzeuges erreicht hat und jetzt in einem Abstand, der sehr gering ist, angedocket fährt. Gleichzeitig wird eine Information I4 "Eisglätte" angezeigt und somit der Fahrer auf eine Gefahrensituation aufmerksam gemacht.The further FIGS. 2a to 2d show the continuous change of the displayed information signal I1 as a function of the absolute value of the distance to a vehicle in front in four stages. As the distance to the vehicle in front decreases, not only does the symbolic view of the vehicle on the display in the field of vision get closer; the rear lights of the vehicle are no longer shown in high risk situations. In contrast to a second numerical display next to the speed display I2, I3, I5, the vehicle driver is very easy to process, since the driver immediately associates the approach of the symbolic vehicle with danger. Another possibility of the display image, namely the usual tachometer shape, is shown in FIGS . 3a to 3e. In Fig. 3a, the display only contains the information I2 about the speed of the own vehicle, neither a distance control nor a speed control is switched on. Dangerous situations do not occur either. In the display image of FIG. 3b it can be seen from the information signal I1 that the distance control has been switched on, but the vehicle has not yet been docked to a preceding vehicle because the distance to the preceding vehicle is still too great. In the display image of Fig. 3c has been docked to the preceding vehicle. The driver receives the information via signal I3. Your own speed I2 and the set speed I5 of the speed control device are also displayed. In FIG. 3d, warning information I4 that restricted visibility due to fog is also output. In FIG. 3e, information I2 and I3 signals that the vehicle has reached the speed of the vehicle in front and is now docked at a distance that is very small. At the same time, information I4 "ice smoothness" is displayed and the driver is thus made aware of a dangerous situation.

Neben der kontinuierlichen Veränderung der Größe der bildlichen Darstellung einzelner In­ formationen können wichtige Informationen auch farblich hervorgehoben werden. Die Erfin­ dung kann sowohl bei Head-up-Displays als auch fürprogrammierbare Anzeigen Verwen­ dung finden.In addition to continuously changing the size of the pictorial representation of individual In important information can also be highlighted in color. The Erfin can be used for both head-up displays and programmable displays find.
