Description

  The present invention relates to an in-vehicle information processing apparatus capable of intuitively setting the temperature, air volume, and the like of an air conditioner.

  Various in-vehicle devices such as an air conditioner, an acoustic device, and a navigation system are mounted on the vehicle. A device has been proposed in which a menu for setting various devices is displayed on a touch panel display mounted on a vehicle, and when the menu is selected by a user, the various devices are operated with the selected setting content (for example, , See Patent Document 1).

  As described above, menus are set hierarchically in an apparatus in which various devices can be operated intensively on a touch panel display. For this reason, the user has to follow a hierarchical menu until the desired function is reached. For example, in the case of an air conditioner, there are setting items such as temperature, air volume, and wind direction. When checking the current setting or setting a specific setting item, it is necessary to sequentially select a hierarchical menu and display each setting item. For this reason, a user's burden will increase.

  In addition, the user sets a temperature, a wind direction, an air volume, and the like by looking at a menu displayed on the touch panel display. The menu relating to the setting of the air conditioner simply represents a set value such as “set temperature 24 ° C.” “wind direction: foot” “air volume 2”. Therefore, there are cases where it is impossible to grasp the specific air condition in the passenger compartment, such as from which part of the air conditioner the wind is sent in which direction and whether the wind is warm or cold. For this reason, even if the air conditioner is set, a desired air state may not actually be obtained.

<Embodiment 1>
FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a vehicle including an in-vehicle information processing apparatus. The vehicle I is equipped with an air conditioner 1 and an in-vehicle information processing device 10.

  The air conditioner 1 supplies air into the vehicle interior with the temperature, air volume, and wind direction set by the control from the in-vehicle information processing device 10. The dashboard 2 in the passenger compartment is provided with a first air outlet 5 and a second air outlet 6 for air in front of the driver's seat 3 and the passenger seat 4. Further, a third air outlet 7 for supplying air toward the upper part of the passenger compartment is provided in front of the passenger compartment of the dashboard 2. Air sent from the air conditioner 1 is sent from the first blower port 5, the second blower port 6, and the third blower port 7 to the vehicle interior.

  The air conditioner 1 can individually set the temperature of air supplied to the driver's seat 3 and the passenger seat 4 from the first air outlet 5 and the second air outlet 6, respectively. Moreover, it is possible to supply air with the air volume common from the 1st ventilation port from the 3rd ventilation port. Furthermore, it is possible to change the direction of the air coming out of the first air outlet 5 and the second air outlet.

  The in-vehicle information processing apparatus 10 includes a main body 11 that executes various processes, and a touch panel display 20 that is an example of an input / output device that displays various types of information and receives input operations.

  The touch panel display 20 displays various types of information on the screen by control from the main body, and transmits an input operation on the screen to the main body as an electric signal. This electric signal is a signal representing the position of the finger touching the screen in the screen. The touch panel display 20 is attached to the dashboard 2 so as to be positioned between the driver's seat 3 and the passenger seat 4. The input / output device is not limited to the touch panel display 20. For example, an output device such as a liquid crystal display and an input device such as a touch panel may be individually mounted on the vehicle.

  The main body 11 is configured as an electronic control unit (ECU). The main body 11 includes a storage unit 12, an input detection unit 13, and a display control unit 14.

  The storage unit 12 stores setting items that can be set in the air conditioner 1 and selection items that are determined for each setting item. The setting item includes information such as its name and a display form when displayed on the touch panel display 20. The display form is an image when setting items and selection items are displayed on the touch panel display 20, and a position, size, range, and the like of the image. The selection item is a setting value set for each setting item, and is information that is presented to the user and selected via the touch panel display 20 as will be described later. Table 1 illustrates setting items and selection items.

As shown in Table 1, four setting items “temperature on the driver's seat side”, “air volume”, “wind direction” and “temperature on the passenger seat side” are stored in the storage unit 12. In addition, for “temperature on the driver's seat side” and “temperature on the passenger seat side”, selection items “16 ° C., 17 ° C.,..., 35 ° C.” are stored in the storage unit 12. Similarly, for the “air volume”, a selection item of numerical values “1, 2, 3, 4,...” Representing the intensity of the air volume in stages is stored in the storage unit 12. With regard to “wind direction”, selection items such as “foot”, “upper body”, and “foot and upper body” indicating the type of wind direction, that is, to which part of the passenger the wind is directed, are stored in the storage unit 12. When a selection item such as “foot” is set in the air conditioner 1, the air conditioner 1 controls the first air outlet 5 and the second air outlet 6 so as to send the wind direction toward the foot or the like. Yes.
By storing the selection items and the selection items in the storage unit 12 in this way, it is possible to read out the selection items belonging to a specific setting item.

  The input detection unit 13 detects a first user operation or a second user operation based on an electrical signal representing an input operation to the touch panel display 20. The user operation refers to a series of movements of a finger touching the touch panel display 20. Examples of user operations include a slide operation, a click operation, and a pinch operation.

  The slide operation refers to a movement of moving a finger up and down and left and right on the screen. The input detection unit 13 detects a slide operation based on a change in the position of a finger touching the screen of the touch panel display 20. A slide operation in which the finger moves leftward from the starting point is referred to as a left slide operation. Similarly, a slide operation in which the finger moves rightward, upward, and downward from the starting point is referred to as a right slide operation, an upper slide operation, and a lower slide operation.

  In the present embodiment, the first user operation is a left slide operation and a right slide operation, and the second user operation is an up slide operation and a down slide operation.

  The click operation is an operation in which a finger touches the screen of the touch panel display 20 in a short time. The pinch operation is an operation in which the two fingertips approach or separate from each other while the screen of the touch panel display 20 is touched with two fingers.

  The display control unit 14 displays the setting item and the selection item on the touch panel display 20, and controls the air conditioner 1 when the first user operation and the second user operation are executed on the setting item and the selection item. .

  Display and control by the display control unit 14 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 6 are diagrams illustrating examples of screens displayed on the touch panel display.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the display control unit 14 displays setting items on the display unit 21 that displays an image on the touch panel display 20. In the present embodiment, an image composed of four setting items arranged side by side in the horizontal direction is displayed on the display unit 21.

  The display control unit 14 displays each setting item on the display unit 21 as a rectangular card-type image. On the leftmost side of the display unit 21, setting items related to “temperature on the driver's seat side” are displayed. A rectangular area of this setting item is referred to as a display area A. Similarly, on the right side of the display area A, the display area B, the display area C, and the display area D of each setting item relating to “air volume”, “wind direction”, and “passenger seat side temperature” are displayed in parallel in the horizontal direction. Has been. In addition, when the display area D is not particularly distinguished from the display area A, it is also simply referred to as a display area.

  First, the display control unit 14 displays an initial state with the leftmost display area A of the display unit 21 being selected. There is no particular limitation on the mode representing the selection state as long as it can identify the setting item selected by the user. In the present embodiment, a high-luminance color frame F that surrounds the display area of the setting item is a mode in which the selection state is displayed.

  Further, the display control unit 14 displays the selection items related to the setting items from the display areas A to the display area D. As shown in Table 1, each setting item is associated with a plurality of selection items. The display control unit 14 displays the selected items side by side in the vertical direction from each display area A to the display area D. It should be noted that the display mode of the selection items displayed in each display area, that is, information such as characters and images indicating how the selection items are displayed in the display area is stored in the storage unit 12 in advance.

  For example, in the display area A, selection items “25, 26, 27, 28” (unit: ° C.) related to the temperature on the driver's seat side are displayed in the vertical direction.

  In the display area B, a plurality of bars 22 representing selection items “1, 2, 3, 4,...” Related to the air volume are arranged in parallel in the vertical direction. The total number of the plurality of bars 22 corresponds to the maximum air volume that can be set, and the number of black bars 22 represents the air volume that is currently set.

  In the display area C, an image in which a human body figure 23 in which a seated occupant is viewed from the side and an arrow 24 representing wind on the human body figure 23 is a set represents a selection item related to the wind direction. Three such images are arranged in the vertical direction. An arrow 24 that passes through the head of the human figure 23 indicates that the selection item of the wind direction is “upper body”. An arrow 24 that passes through the legs of the human figure 23 indicates that the selection item of the wind direction is “foot”. An arrow 24 that passes through the head and legs of the human figure 23 indicates that the selection item of the wind direction is “upper body and feet”.

  Further, the selection item displayed in the display area may be displayed as an animation. For example, the animation display of the selection item in the display area C will be described with reference to FIG. 4A and 4B, two arrows 24 pass under the feet of the human figure 23. From FIG. 4A to FIG. 4B, these two arrows 24 are swelled and displayed while changing places where they intersect each other. You may display by the animation which changes the arrow 24 continuously from such Fig.4 (a) to FIG.4 (b). Thereby, it can be shown to a user that it is easier to understand where the air is blown.

  As shown in FIG. 2, in the display area D, selection items “25, 26, 27, 28” (unit: ° C.) related to the passenger side temperature are displayed in the vertical direction.

  Further, the display control unit 14 displays an image E representing the state of air blown from the air conditioner into the vehicle compartment on the right side of the display area arranged on the display unit 21. This image E is an image of the front of the passenger compartment viewed from the interior of the passenger compartment, and represents the interior of the passenger compartment from the viewpoint of the actual passenger. That is, the driver's seat 3 and the passenger seat 4 are displayed on the front side of the image E, and the dashboard 2 is displayed in front of them. And the area | region Z from the area | region X showing a mode that air is sent out from the vicinity of the 1st ventilation opening 5 provided in the dashboard 2 to the 3rd ventilation opening 7 (not shown) is displayed. The region X to the region Z have a wavy square shape, and have a predetermined coloring. Region X represents the wind from the first blower port 5 toward the driver's seat 3, region Y represents the wind from the second blower port 6 toward the passenger seat 4, and the region Z represents the wind directed upward from the third blower port 7. Represents.

  Such an image E is displayed as an animation according to the selection item of each setting item. Regarding the “driver's side temperature” and “passenger side temperature”, for example, the display control unit 14 has a warmer color that is stronger as the temperature, which is the currently set selection item, is higher, and the temperature is lower. Color the region Z from the region X with a strong cold color. This makes it possible for the user to recognize that warm or cold wind is being sent.

  For “air volume”, for example, an animation is displayed so that the area Y gradually extends from each area X from each of the first air outlet 5 to the third air outlet 7. And the maximum height of the area | region Z from the area | region X is made high, so that the value of air volume is large. Alternatively, the region Z is filled with a striped pattern extending in the vehicle width direction from the region X. The higher the value of the air volume that is the currently set selection item, the faster the striped pattern moves from the first air outlet 5 and the second air outlet 6 toward the driver seat 3 and the passenger seat 4 side. Animate to Such an animation display allows the user to recognize that a strong wind corresponding to the set air volume is being sent.

  For “wind direction”, for example, if the wind direction which is the currently set selection item is the current wind direction, the display control unit 14 displays only the region X or the region Y and does not display the region Z. As a result, the user can recognize that the wind is being sent to his feet. If the wind direction is the upper body, only the region Z is displayed and the region X and the region Y are not displayed. As a result, the user can recognize that the wind is being sent to the upper body. If the wind direction is underfoot and upper body, the area X to the area Z are displayed. As a result, the user can recognize that the wind is being sent to the feet and upper body.

  In the example described above, the intensity of the air volume is displayed as an animation by continuously moving the striped pattern with respect to the air volume. Of course, the animation display is not limited to such a mode. For example, when changing from a high temperature to a low temperature, an animation display may be performed in which the color is gradually changed from the region X to the region Y from the warm color system to the cold color system. As for the wind direction, when the wind direction is changed, for example, when the wind direction toward the foot is stopped and switched to the wind direction toward the upper body, the region X and the region Y gradually disappear, and the region Z appears gradually. An animation may be displayed.

  Next, as illustrated in FIG. 3, when the first user operation is detected, the display control unit 14 sets other selection items to a selected state. In the present embodiment, when the input detection unit 13 detects a right slide operation as the first user operation, the display control unit 14 does not move the display region D from the display region A of each setting item on the display unit 21, Another display area B different from the display area A is selected.

  Then, the display control unit 14 displays the periphery of the display area B so as to be surrounded by a high-luminance color frame F, and restores the display around the display area A. That is, the display control unit 14 moves the position of the frame F in the horizontal direction without changing the display position of the display area D from the display area A on the display unit 21, and the selection state moves to the adjacent display area. To the user.

  As described above, the display control unit 14 selects any one of the setting items displayed on the display unit 21 based on the first user operation, and the setting item to be changed by the user. Is identified. Although not particularly illustrated, the display control unit 14 selects the left display area when a left slide operation is detected, as in the right slide operation.

  Next, processing when a second user operation is detected will be described. As shown in FIG. 5, it is assumed that the setting item “air volume” of the air conditioner 1 is selected by a first user operation. It is assumed that the selection item is “2”. At this time, the image E is displayed with a relatively short height from the region X to the region Z according to the air volume “2”.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 6, when the second user operation is detected, the display control unit 14 increases the air volume by 1 to “3” and displays the bar 22 displayed in the display area B. Make one black. Further, the display control unit 14 updates the image E. That is, the image E in which the height from the region X to the region Z is increased according to the air volume “3” is displayed. Although not particularly illustrated, animation may be displayed so that the height from the region X to the region Z gradually increases from FIG. 4 to FIG.

  Although not particularly illustrated, the display control unit 14 selects one selection item based on the second user operation in the same manner for other setting items, and updates the display area and the image E according to the result. .

  As described above, in the in-vehicle information processing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment, the setting items related to the air conditioner 1 are displayed in a list on the display unit 21, and the setting items that can be set in the display areas A to D of the setting items are displayed. Is displayed. With such a display mode, the entire setting items of the air conditioner 1 can be easily grasped on one display unit 21. That is, the state of the air conditioner 1 can be easily grasped simultaneously.

  Conventionally, when there is a hierarchical relationship such as a setting item and a selection item, it is necessary to perform an operation of selecting the selection item belonging to the setting item after selecting the setting item. However, in the in-vehicle information processing apparatus 10 of the present invention, it is not necessary to select a selection item following such a hierarchy, and the setting operation is realized by two types of user operations for the setting item displayed on the display unit 21 and the selection item. can do.

  Further, in the in-vehicle information processing apparatus 10, not only the setting items and selection items but also an image E representing the state of the air blown from the air conditioner into the vehicle interior is displayed.

  The selection items displayed from the display area A to the display area D are: how many degrees C is set on the driver's seat side or the passenger seat side, how much the airflow is set, what kind of direction the wind direction is; In this way, the user can confirm the effect obtained as a result of the setting. On the other hand, the image E has an action of allowing the user to visually confirm how the setting contents are realized, such as what wind direction, air volume, and temperature are used.

  Since the in-vehicle information processing apparatus 10 displays such an image E, the wind is sent from which part of the air conditioner 1 in which direction and whether the wind is warm or cold. The user can easily grasp the air condition. Thereby, the user can set the air conditioner 1 to make the passenger compartment comfortable with air in a desired state.

  Thus, according to the in-vehicle information processing apparatus 10, the air conditioner mounted on the vehicle can be set with a simple operation, and the air in the passenger compartment can be more reliably set to a desired state.

  Moreover, in the vehicle-mounted information processing apparatus 10 of the present invention, the selection items displayed on the display unit 21 are displayed as animations. Thus, it is possible to easily grasp what state is set when the selection item is selected.

  For example, by displaying the wind direction setting item in the display area C as an animation, it is possible to easily grasp what state the wind direction from the air conditioner 1 is set to.

  Furthermore, the in-vehicle information processing apparatus 10 of the present invention can form an image E that displays the color of the air blown from the air conditioner 1 into the passenger compartment so that the warm color system becomes stronger as the temperature setting value is higher. it can. Thereby, it can be easily grasped whether the air blown from the air conditioner 1 into the passenger compartment is warm or cold.

  In addition, any setting item and selection item can be selected uniformly in two types: a first user operation (up slide / down slide operation) and a second user operation (left slide operation / right slide operation). it can. As a result, a unified and easy-to-understand operation system can be provided to the user, and the burden of setting operation can be reduced.

  In the in-vehicle information processing apparatus 10 of the present invention, the touch panel display 20 is disposed between the driver seat 3 and the passenger seat 4. In the display unit 21, the display area A to the display area D of each setting item are displayed on the left side close to the driver's seat 3. Thereby, it can be made easy to touch and operate the display area A from the driver's seat 3 to the display area D. Further, when the display area D is selected from the display area A or when a selection item is selected, the driver's line-of-sight movement can be reduced.

<Embodiment 2>
In the present embodiment, another aspect of the selection item display and selection method will be described. FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of a screen displayed on the touch panel display 20. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same thing as Embodiment 1, and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

  Here, the process of displaying the selection item of the setting item “driver's side temperature” and selecting one of the selection items will be described. In the figure, the setting item “driver's side temperature” is selected, and a frame F representing the selected state is displayed surrounding the display area A.

  As shown to Fig.7 (a), the display control part 14 arranges and displays the selection item of the temperature of the air conditioner 1 centering on the predetermined position P among the display areas A in the vertical direction. Specifically, the display control unit 14 sets the predetermined position P to a substantially central portion of the display area A, and the driver seat of the air conditioner 1 is selected from “16 ° C. to 35 ° C.” which is a temperature selection item on the driver seat side. “25 to 28 ° C.” before and after the set temperature is displayed side by side in the vertical direction so that the current set temperature on the side (“27 ° C.” in this case) is displayed at the predetermined position P.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 7B, when an upslide operation is detected as the second user operation, a process for lowering the set temperature is performed. Specifically, when an up-slide operation is detected, the display control unit 14 vertically shifts “24 to 27 ° C.” around the set temperature so that the set temperature “26 ° C.” is displayed at the predetermined position P. Display side by side in the direction.

  The display control unit 14 displays the selection item displayed at the predetermined position P as an aspect indicating the selected state. In the present embodiment, the selection item displayed at the predetermined position P is displayed in bold. Specifically, the display control unit 14 displays “26 ° C.”, which is the next selection item newly displayed at the predetermined position P, in bold as a mode indicating the selected state, and the second user operation “27 ° C.” selected before the operation is restored to the original display.

  That is, the display control unit 14 displays the selection item by moving it in the vertical direction based on the second user operation, while displaying the selection item in bold in the display area A. It is always performed only at a certain predetermined position P. In this way, the display control unit 14 presents to the user that the selected item has been changed while always displaying the selected item in the selected state at the predetermined position P.

  Thereafter, when the selection item selected in this way is changed from “27 ° C.” to “26 ° C.”, the display control unit 14 controls the air conditioner 1 based on the changed selection item. Since the display area A relates to the temperature on the driver's seat side, the display control unit 14 controls the air conditioner 1 to set the temperature on the driver's seat side to 26 ° C.

  Although not particularly illustrated, as shown in the first embodiment, the temperature of the air blown from the air conditioner to the passenger compartment is displayed as an animation changing from “27 ° C.” to “26 ° C.”. Specifically, an animation is displayed so that the color applied from the region X to the region Z of the image E is slightly changed to a cold color system.

  As described above, in the in-vehicle information processing apparatus 10 according to the present invention, the selection item is selected by the up-slide operation / down-slide operation in the vertical direction. Although the selected item moves in the vertical direction by these operations, the selected item in the selected state is always displayed at the predetermined position P in the display area. By such display control, the user's line of sight can be kept at the predetermined position P without moving up and down. Thereby, a user's eyes | visual_axis movement can be decreased. For example, when the front of the vehicle and the touch panel display 20 are put into view, even if a downward slide operation is performed, the line of sight does not have to be lowered significantly following the selected item, and the touch panel display is kept without taking a large eye from the front of the vehicle. 20 operations can be performed.

<Other embodiments>
As mentioned above, although one embodiment of the present invention has been described, of course, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and addition, omission, replacement, etc., of a configuration is possible without departing from the spirit of the present invention. And other changes are possible.

  For example, in the first embodiment, the wind sent from the air conditioner 1 to the passenger compartment is substantially square like the region X to the region Y, but is not limited to such a mode. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the wind may be represented by an arrow. For example, the larger the air volume, the greater the number of arrows extending from the third blower port 7 may be expressed. Moreover, the width of the arrow extending from the first air outlet 5 may be narrowed as the air volume is small, and the width of the arrow extending from the second air outlet 6 may be increased as the air volume is large.

  Further, although the horizontal sliding motion is the first user motion and the vertical sliding motion is the second user motion, the present invention is not limited to this. The first user operation and the second user operation are operations input to the touch panel display 20 as long as they can be distinguished from each other.

  Although the setting items are arranged side by side in the horizontal direction and the selection items are arranged in the vertical direction, the present invention is not limited to this, and the setting items and selection items may be arranged in parallel in any two different directions.

  The present invention can be used in the industrial field of automobiles.
