The present invention discloses a vehicle inside mirror device for displaying an image, which can obtain an enhanced mirror function of a prism glass (30) caused by a black film (40) provided at a rear side of a prism glass and has a relatively simple structure made by forming directly a transflective layer on a rear surface of a prism glass without using a substrate. The vehicle inside mirror device of the present invention comprises a housing (10) mounted in a passenger compartment of a vehicle; a prism glass (30) provided on a front side of the housing and having a transparent transflective layer (31) formed on a rear surface thereof; a black film (40) provided at a rear side of the prism glass and having an opening (41) formed on one side thereof; a liquid crystal display (LCD) module (50) provided at a rear side of the opening of the black film; and a control circuit unit (60) installed at a rear side of the LCD module (50).

A tactile sensation presentation device is provided whereby a tactile sensation is provided in a direction in which a vibration can easily be felt by an operator. A tactile sensation presentation device (1) includes a panel (10) having, within a front surface (100), a surface shape such that respective normal lines at two different points intersect by being parallel moved, a detector (12) that detects an operation performed on the front surface (100) of the panel (10), a tactile sensation presenter (14) that presents a tactile sensation to an operator by providing a vibration to the panel (10), and a controller (16) that controls the tactile sensation presenter (14) so as to present the vibration in a direction intersecting a tangential plane including a detection point where the operation is detected.

An electronic mirror device has a display device that is mounted on a mounting position of a rear view mirror in an interior of a vehicle and displays an image taken by a camera mounted on the vehicle. The display device has a body case having an opening, and a display unit that is mounted in the body case. The display unit has a video display unit, and a half mirror. The video display unit has a display surface facing an opening of the body case. The half mirror is disposed closer to the opening of the body case than to the video display unit, and apart from the display surface. A gap between the half mirror and the video display unit is smaller at least at one of both ends of the half mirror in a horizontal direction than at a center of the half mirror.

An electronic mirror device for displaying an image captured by a camera mounted to a vehicle includes a liquid crystal display having a display surface, a retarder, and a cholesteric liquid crystal layer. The retarder is disposed opposite the display surface of the liquid crystal display, and circularly polarizes a liquid crystal image emitted from the liquid crystal display. The cholesteric liquid crystal layer is disposed on the opposite side of the retarder from the liquid crystal display. The liquid crystal image circularly polarized by the retarder passes through the cholesteric liquid crystal layer.

An around view provision apparatus and a vehicle including the same are disclosed. The around view provision apparatus may include first to fourth cameras mounted at a vehicle and a processor to generate an around view image using images captured by the first to fourth cameras. The processor may remove distortions in the around view image using a first solid projection surface and a second solid projection surface, the first and second solid projection surfaces being virtual surfaces having prescribed contours. The processor may project the images from the first to fourth cameras on the first solid projection surface so as to generate the around view image and may project a partial region of the around view image on the second solid projection surface that is different than the first solid projection surface so as to generate a partially calibrated around view image.

Provided is a display device for a vehicle such that the life of display elements can be made long even when used in a high temperature environment and, further, unpleasant sensations due to changes in brightness of display images can be prevented. A control unit (90) provides a display period (Fa) in which an illumination control unit (91) turns on light sources (11), and a display control unit (92) generates a display image (M) in display elements (30) within a frame (F) that constitutes the display image (M) on the basis of a display image signal and a non-display period (Fb) in which the illumination control unit (91) turns off all light sources (11). When the display control unit (92) changes the display period proportions (A) for mirrors (E) for the display elements (30) according to prescribed conditions, drive currents (I) and drive periods (H) for the light sources (11) are changed simultaneously such that brightness is not changed.

A virtual-screen setup unit (30) sets up a virtual screen in a seam of images captured by an image capturing unit (20), the virtual screen being orthogonal to a road surface and extending in a direction from a near side to a far side of the vehicle. A virtual-screen projection image generation unit (40) performs conversion of the images captured by the image capturing unit (20) for projection onto the virtual screen, and thereby generates a virtual-screen projection image. The virtual-screen projection image is displayed on the image display unit (90).
