Vehicle display which reduces driver's recognition time of alarm display
First Claim
1. A vehicle display system, comprising:
- a first information display;
an alarm display;
an alarm state detector;
a circuit responsive to detection of an alarm state by the alarm state detector, for canceling the first information display and activating the alarm display after a predetermined time has elapsed after the cancellation of the first information display;
a second information display; and
a target detector for determining whether a driver'"'"'s eyes are fixed on the first or the second information display,wherein the circuit cancels the first information display if the target detector determines that the driver'"'"'s eyes are fixed on the first information display and cancels the second information display if the target detector determines that the driver'"'"'s eyes are fixed on the second information display.

Abstract
A vehicle display device including an information display unit for displaying prescribed information for a vehicle, an alarm need state detection unit for detecting a prescribed state where an alarm for the vehicle is needed, an alarm display unit for performing an alarm display on the basis of the detection of the alarm need state detection unit, an eye-fixed target detection unit for detecting an object on which a driver fixes his eyes as an eye-fixed target, a display cancel unit for canceling the eye-fixed target or its neighboring information display, and a delay unit for controlling the alarm display unit to perform the alarm display after a predetermined time lapse from the display cancellation of the display cancel unit.
