Patent ID: 11938819

Abstract:
A method performed by a vehicle feature evaluation system for enabling evaluation of a simulated vehicle-related feature. The vehicle feature evaluation system determines in relation to a road-driven vehicle, with support from a tracking system, an orientation of a head-mounted display, HMD, adapted to be worn by an occupant on-board the road-driven vehicle or position and gaze direction of the occupant. The vehicle feature evaluation system further determines a simulated vehicle design feature to be evaluated in the road-driven vehicle. Moreover, the vehicle feature evaluation system provides in real-time to a HMD display of the HMD or another display, taking into consideration the HMD orientation or position and gaze direction, a virtual representation of the simulated vehicle design feature superimposed on a real-time surrounding-showing image derived from real-world perception sensor data captured with support from one or more vehicle-attached perception sensors adapted to capture surroundings internal or external to the road-driven vehicle.
