Information presenting apparatus and method
First Claim
1. An information presenting apparatus for a vehicle comprising:
- a presentation device to present display information of areas outside the vehicle;
a control device to control a presentation direction of said presentation device so that the display information relates to a travel direction of the vehicle during operation;
an object sensing device to detect an object near the vehicle; and
a determining device to determine whether the object is a dangerous object;
said control device moving the presentation direction from the a travel direction of the vehicle to a direction of the object, to allow the presentation device to present display information about the object, if the determining device determines that the object is a dangerous object.

Abstract
An information presenting method and apparatus for a vehicle which may process display information based on a predicted direction of movement of the vehicle, detect an object near the vehicle, determine whether the object is a dangerous object, and control a presentation direction so that the display information is a direction of movement of the vehicle during operation, and if the object is a dangerous object, the information presenting method or apparatus moves the presentation direction from the direction of movement of the vehicle to a direction of the object and presents the display information of areas outside the vehicle.

7. An information presenting method for a vehicle, comprising:
-
presenting display information of areas outside the vehicle;
detecting an object near the vehicle;
determining whether the object is a dangerous object;
moving the presentation direction from the a travel direction of the vehicle to a direction of the object, to allow the presentation device to present display information about the object, if the determining device determines that the object is a dangerous object; and
controlling the presentation direction so that the display information illustrates a direction of movement of the vehicle during operation, and if the object is a dangerous object, moving the presentation direction from the direction of movement of the vehicle to a direction of the object.

9. A control device for an information presenting apparatus of a vehicle comprising:
-
an input device to receive a plurality of inputs, including at least one surrounding vehicle input, at least one operating condition input, and at least one run condition input; and
a processor to detect an object near the vehicle, determine driver intention and determine a run anticipation track of the vehicle based on the at least one surrounding vehicle input, the at least one operating condition input, and the at least one run condition input;
said processor also to determine if the object is a dangerous object based on the object detected near the vehicle and the driver intention, and to output the run anticipation track of the vehicle, if the object near the vehicle is not a dangerous object, and to output information which identifies the direction of the object, if the object near the vehicle is a dangerous object.
