Recently, Apple announced a new patent called "Adaptive Vehicle Augmented Reality Display Technology Based on Stereo Imaging."
Apple’s patent describes to us that Apple’s automatic driving will be combined with AR and VR technologies to make it possible for drivers to clearly see blind spots that were previously invisible, such as blocked roads behind tall buildings. Because in the scene of the use of unmanned vehicles, the cloud stores pre-generated 3D models, such as roads, scenic spots, gas stations and other data. The AR technology system integrates the information collected by sensors and laser radars of the self-driving car and the 3D model information stored in the cloud, allowing the driver to control the real scene in a more detailed and precise manner during driving. At the same time, it also ensures the safety of driving.
In addition to this, surprisingly, these 3D information can be projected onto the windshield so that passengers and drivers can see detailed road conditions. This will enable passengers to have a more open vision and a more comfortable ride experience. In addition to integrating AR technology into autopilot, Apple also incorporates VR technology. In the Apple Car VR system that was exposed in the Apple patent, VR technology combined with car seats and sensors allowed passengers to reduce motion sickness.
Automotive driving is only one part of the application of VR/AR technology. It can be said that all aspects of VR/AR technology in the automobile field have brought about brand-new changes.
Automotive Design
Ford's "Immersion Lab" lab uses HMDs and ultra-high definition displays, uses virtual reality to design the new Ford GT, inspects the car's structural, mechanical and electronic systems, and designs the position from steering wheel operation to dashboard interface;
Car production
Audi's CAVE Studio's "virtual assembly line calibration" technology uses 3D projection images, "MYO" forearm ring detection gestures, and Kinect to collect worker positions, allowing workers to estimate and correct actual product assembly work in 3D virtual space. ;
Car pre-sales
Audi cooperated with Oculus and launched the VR car selection service. It simulates the real scene where the user is sitting in the car. He also puts on the speaker brand Bang & Olufsen, which is also closer to the real environment in sound simulation. In addition, Ferrari has also launched. After an iPad application, a Ferrari sports car can be used to replace the body color in the exhibition hall, observe the internal structure of the transmission system, and so on.
Car driving
As early as 2015, Honda introduced a “Wanderer STAND†concept car. Its outstanding feature is its AR windshield, which can be loaded with useful information on the glass to help driving; at the same time, it also applied for a follow-up in 2016. AR windshield related patents; and BMW and Qualcomm, launched an AR glasses for the BMW MINI, through which the glasses can not only obtain traffic-related information, but also can get surrounding POI information and SMS alerts;
Driving experience
Toyota, which is socially responsible, uses the Oculus Rift, the vehicle's steering wheel, and the speaker system to build a system called TeenDrive 365. The system is targeted at young people and hopes to help teenagers develop some necessary driving skills; there is also a set of points. "Heart Drive Simulator" system, used to test the driver's ability to concentrate on driving;
Aftermarket
Korea Hyundai will launch an electronic user manual incorporating augmented reality technology. Using AR technology, users can automatically identify the car part and provide relevant information by simply picking up the mobile phone or tablet.
All of the above are enough to illustrate the enthusiasm of the automotive industry for VR/AR. In fact, the traditional car makers are so eager for the new VR/AR computing platform because it is indeed close to all areas of the car. Even VR/AR technology has inherent advantages and needs in the application scenarios of automobile driving. We are looking forward to the real application of these patents.
