What is e-Cockpit/In-Vehicle HMI (Human Machine Interface)?
An e-cockpit in this research indicates an in-vehicle HMI (Human Machine Interface) system that associates with in-vehicle cameras, warns danger, and displays emergency by means of HUD (Heads Up Displays) and etc. In the future, this display system is expected to be available of infotainment which provides information like car navigation and also music and visual media, as well as to interrelate with ADAS (Advanced Driving Assistant System), in addition to the basic functions of automobiles which are to drive, turn at a curve, and stop.
Summary of Research Findings
- Integrity Control Function Added to In-Vehicle HMI Systems to Prioritize Information
The function of integrity control has been added to in-vehicle HMI (Human Machine Interface) systems to prioritize information. The added function aims to prioritize vast information provided by ADAS (Advanced Driving Assistant System) widely installed in increasing number of vehicles. Such vast amount of information during driving can cause some confusion or disturbance to the driver. The integrity control function is sometimes needed in order to solve this problem by ranking diverse information from vehicle body to external environment in the order of priority, and by picking up to display the most important one first according to such priority orders, without giving any discomfort or stress to the driver.
- Global e-Cockpit Market Size Projected to Attain 8,336 Thousand Units by 2022
The global market size of e-Cockpits, based on the shipment volume at manufacturers, is expected to be 625 thousand units in 2016. The CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of global e-Cockpit market from 2016 to 2022 is likely to be 54.0%, indicating that it can attain 8,336 thousand units by 2022. The market of e-Cockpit is projected to expand along with growing number those automobiles adopting automatic operating systems.
