VEHICULAR VIDEO CONTROL APPARATUS

摘要

A display controller has an output arbitration function for distributively outputting a plurality of different interrupt screens compliant with display requests from a plurality of parallelly-running applications to a plurality of display units mounted in a vehicle. In such an instance, the display controller acquires output destination priorities of the display units to which the interrupt screens are output and screen priorities defined for the interrupt screens. In accordance with the screen priorities of the individual interrupt screens compliant with the display requests and in accordance with the associated output destination priorities, the display controller selects appropriate display units and outputs the individual interrupt screens to the selected display units.

1. A vehicular video control apparatus comprising:
an output instruction section that distributively outputs a plurality of different interrupt screens compliant with display requests from a plurality of parallelly-running applications to a plurality of video display units mounted in a vehicle; an output destination priority acquisition section that acquires output destination priorities indicative of priorities of the plurality of video display units selectable as output destinations for the interrupt screens; and a screen priority acquisition section that acquires screen priorities indicative of display priorities defined for the interrupt screens; wherein, in accordance with the output destination priorities determined by the output destination priorities of the interrupt screens compliant with the display requests and in accordance with the screen priorities of the interrupt screens, the output instruction section selects the video display units as the output destinations for the interrupt screens and outputs the interrupt screens to the selected video display units.
