Method for displaying a perspective image and display device for at least one passenger of a motor vehicle
First Claim
1. A process for displaying a perspective image (B) with an image element (4A through 4H) for at least one occupant of a vehicle, wherein the image (B) represents the perspective of the occupant, said process comprising:
- generating a virtual display representing the operating environment of the vehicle,displaying within the virtual display the image element (4A through 4H) as a three dimensional image,changing at least one characteristic of an image element (4A through 4H) depending at least one of;
the roadway ahead (F),an operating parameter of the vehicle, anda parameter of an object (6) identified in the area of the vehicle preceding roadway (F),wherein said display includes at least one three dimensional image element representing an operating parameter or providing warning information, andwherein the contour of the roadway (F) in the display (B) is continuously conformed to the natural course of the stretch of road ahead of the vehicle.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for displaying a perspective image and to a display device for at least one passenger of a motor vehicle. The air of the vehicle is to guarantee by simple means a high road safety that is substantially independent of the knowledge and skills of the driver. To this end, a method for displaying a perspective image (B) with one image element (4A to 4H) for at least one passenger of a motor vehicle is provided, said image (B) representing the view of the passenger. According to the inventive method, the image element (4A to 4H) is changed in at least one size depending on the forward travel way (F), on at least one operational parameter of the motor vehicle and/or on at least one parameter of an object (6) identified in the range of the travel way (F).
