Title: A display system and method for a vehicle
Inventor: ANDY JOHN MURRAY
IPC: G09F21/04
Filed: 2019-01-16
Abstract: A display system for a vehicle comprises an electronic display screen 24 for displaying a message 22b visible from outside the vehicle and a controller for updating the message based on location data received from a mobile device. Preferably the controller is configured to determine the proximity or distance from the vehicle of a user of the mobile device and to calculate a length of time required for the user to return to the vehicle, e.g. based on the shortest route. The message may be updated based on the calculated length of time. The display may comprise a map showing the location of the mobile device. The system is particularly for displaying messages relating to the parking status of the vehicle based on the location of the driver, e.g. the estimated time a delivery driver will return to the vehicle. The display may also display a parking permit or other parking authorisation based on the sensed vehicle location.
