Display device
First Claim
1. A Head Up Display (HUD) device in a vehicle, comprising:
- a display panel configured to output an image containing driving information;
a concave mirror configured to reflect the image to a windshield of the vehicle, so as to display a virtual image via the windshield in a forward direction of a driver of the vehicle, wherein the virtual image corresponds to a view box being an area in which the entire image containing the driving information is seen by the driver;
a sensing unit configured to sense a position of the driver;
a drive unit configured to move the concave mirror; and
a controller configured to control the drive unit to move the concave mirror in order to correspondingly move the view box when the sensing unit senses a variation in the position of the driver,wherein the controller is further configured to control the display panel to correct a position of the virtual image so that the virtual image is fixed so as to match a scene in front of the windshield when the concave mirror is rotated as the position of the driver moves.

10. A Head Up Display (HUD) device in a vehicle, comprising:
-
a display panel configured to output an image containing driving information; a combiner configured to reflect a portion of the image towards a driver of the vehicle and to pass a remaining portion of the image to a windshield of the vehicle, so as to display a virtual image via the windshield in a forward direction of a driver of the vehicle, wherein the virtual image corresponds to a view box being an area in which the entire image containing the driving information is seen by the driver; a sensing unit configured to sense a position of the driver; a drive unit configured to move the combiner; and a controller configured to control the drive unit to move the combiner in order to move the view box when the sensing unit senses a variation in the position of the driver, wherein the controller is further configured to control the display panel to correct a position of the virtual image so as to match a scene in front of a windshield when the combiner is rotated as the position of the driver is moved. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
