Augmented Reality Head-up Display
Optical System
AR-Creator is the source of
the display content
The optical system generates
the virtual picture in front of
the car
Option:
An interior camera can detect
the position of the driver's
eyes and adjust the location
of the AR-HUD's eye box
accordingly
Field of vision:
10°

Adaptive Cruise Control
Realizing the Augmentation:
› AR-HUD marks the detected vehicle ahead
› Detection of pulling out vehicles in front
› Detection also in the curve
› Result:
The driver can always see what the technology
is recognizing

Summary
› AR-HUD is an important part of tomorrows holistic
interaction concepts – for a dialogue between driver and
car without words.
› AR-HUD supports the driver for more comfort and safe
driving.
› AR-HUD technology will make it even easier for future
ADAS functions and automated driving functions to gain
acceptance among end customers.
› The AR-HUD is an important piece of the puzzle in our
holistic HMI approach – for comfortable, economical and
safe driving.
› The integration and realization requires complete system
know-how and experience: HMI, ADAS, optics,
mechanics, electronics and software
