First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- a display system mounted on a controllable movable body; and
a display device included in the display system, the display device being arranged to simultaneously display images which indicate different sets of information including information about the movable body;
the display system further comprising;
at least one processor arranged to generate image data in order to display the images simultaneously in a shared manner; and
a display data output device arranged to generate display data to display an image on the display device and output the display data to the display device, the display data output device is connected to both the display device and the at least one processor;
whereinthe display data output device generates the display data by laying out the image data transmitted from the at least one processor, based on an image layout registered in advance in the display data output device, and outputting the generated display data to the display device.

Abstract
An instrument panel display system displays vehicle information, amenity information, and safety information as images. In this instrument panel display system, data (image data, image layout data, and image output control data) for displaying the images are generated in a shared manner by a vehicle system processor, an amenity system processor, and a safety system processor. On account of this, the stability of image display on an instrument panel of a vehicle or the like is improved and hence safety of driving is increased.

18. A display system which is mounted on a controllable movable body and simultaneously displays, on a display device, images which indicate sets of information including information regarding the movable body, wherein
the display system is arranged such that, the sets of information include movable body information about the movable body and multimedia information which is different from the movable body information; -
data for displaying an image corresponding to the movable body information is generated by a processor which is different from a processor which generates an image corresponding to the multimedia information; and the sets of information include amenity information and safety information; the display system comprising; a movable body system processor which processes the movable body information; an amenity system processor which processes the amenity information; and a safety system processor which processes the safety information; and the movable body system processor generates image data which corresponds to the movable body information, the amenity system processor generates image data which corresponds to the amenity information, and the safety system processor generates image data which corresponds to the safety information. - View Dependent Claims (19)

39. A display control method for a display system which is mounted on a controllable movable body and simultaneously displays, on a display device, images which indicate sets of information about the movable body, the display system including:
-
at least one processor arranged to generate image data for displaying the images simultaneously in a shared manner; and a display data output device arranged to generate display data for an image on the display device and output the display data to the display device, the display data output device being connected to the display device and the at least one processor; the method comprising the steps of; (i) generating the display data by at least laying out the image data transmitted from the at least one processor, based on an image layout which is registered in advance in the display data output device; and (ii) outputting the display data generated in the step (i) to the display device. - View Dependent Claims (40)
