Apparatus and method for displaying cluster
First Claim
Patent Images
1. An apparatus for displaying a cluster, the apparatus comprising:
- a driving sensor configured to sense a driving state of a mobile object;
a display unit configured to convert a method of displaying a cluster disposed within the mobile object; and
a controller configured to;
display a scale and a pointer that indicates the scale based on the sensed driving state of the mobile object; and
detect a current driving state of the mobile object in real time to generate a control signal with respect to the display method including a brightness degree, a brightness region, and a color of the scale,wherein the controller is further configured to;
detect the acceleration of the mobile object; and
estimate a speed of the mobile object after a threshold time period based on the acceleration to illuminate a range of the scale ranging to the estimated speed of the mobile object.

Abstract
An apparatus and a method for displaying a cluster are provided. The apparatus includes a driving sensor that senses a driving state of a mobile object and a display unit that converts a method of displaying a cluster indisposed within the mobile object. A controller is configured illuminate a scale and a pointer that indicates the scale based on the sensed driving state of the mobile object. In addition, the controller detects a current driving state of the mobile object in real time to generate a control signal with respect to the display method including a brightness degree, a brightness region, and a color of the scale.

8. A method of displaying a cluster, the method comprising:
-
detecting, by a controller, a driving state of a mobile object; displaying, by the controller, a pointer based on the detected driving state of the mobile object; detecting, by the controller, a current driving state of the mobile object in real time; and changing, by the controller, a display method including a brightness degree, a brightness region, and a color of the scale to display the pointer and the scale on a display unit, wherein the changing of the display method to display the point and the scale includes; detecting by the controller, a current driving state of the mobile object in real time; estimating, by the controller, a state of the mobile object after a threshold time period; and gradually decreasing, by the controller, illumination brightness of the scale in a direction of a scale position that corresponds to the estimated state from a scale position at which the pointer is displayed. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A non-transitory computer readable medium containing program instructions executed by a controller, the computer readable medium comprising:
-
program instructions that detect a driving state of a mobile object; program instructions that display a pointer based on the detected driving state of the mobile object; program instructions that detect a current driving state of the mobile object in real time; and program instructions that change a display method including a brightness degree, a brightness region, and a color of the scale to display the pointer and the scale on a display unit, wherein changing of the display method to display the point and the scale further comprises; program instructions that detect a current driving state of the mobile object in real time; program instructions that estimate a state of the mobile object after a threshold time period; and program instruction that gradually decrease illumination brightness of the scale in a direction of scale position that corresponds to the estimated state from a scale position at which the pointer is displayed. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15)
