1. A method for generating three-dimensional information for display to a user of a vehicle, the method comprising:
- generating a three-dimensional representation of a vehicle instrument cluster including a plurality of instruments;
generating a three-dimensional representation of a navigation system map;
outputting for display, on a three-dimensional display in the vehicle, the three-dimensional representation of the vehicle instrument cluster at a first depth level;
outputting for display, on the three-dimensional display, the three-dimensional representation of the navigation system map at a second depth level, wherein the first depth level is closer to a viewing perspective than the second depth level;
determining that the viewing perspective has changed; and
in response to the determining;
moving the three-dimensional representation of the vehicle instrument cluster a first distance, andmoving the three-dimensional representation of the navigation system map a second distance, wherein the first distance is greater than the second distance.

9. A computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a processing unit, cause the processing unit to generate three-dimensional information for display to a user of a vehicle, by performing the steps of:
-
generating a three-dimensional graphical output that includes a three-dimensional representation of a vehicle instrument cluster at a first depth level, and a three-dimensional representation of a navigation system map at a second depth level; outputting the three-dimensional graphical output for display on a three-dimensional display in the vehicle; determining that a status associated with at least one of the navigation system map and the vehicle instrument cluster meets a first condition; and in response to the determining, moving at least one of the three-dimensional representation of the navigation system map and the three-dimensional representation of the vehicle instrument cluster to a third depth level. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
