Patent ID: 8414299

Claim:
A vehicle simulation system comprising: a dummy vehicle operated by a driver; a front display unit for displaying a scene based on the operation of said dummy vehicle and visually confirmed when viewed from a first visual point (EP 1 ) set based on a seated position of said driver; and a side display unit provided on a left side and a right side and configured so that an image displayed thereon is not visually confirmed when viewed from said first visual point (EP 1 ), but is visually confirmed when viewed from a second visual point (EP 2 ) on a front side relative to said first visual point (EP 1 ), wherein said front display unit has a single screen with a central display region for displaying a front scene, and left and right display regions on left and right sides of the central display region for displaying left and right scenes, and further comprising: first mirror members for shielding said left and right end display regions of the front display unit from said first visual point (EP 1 ) and reflecting images toward a lateral side; and second mirror members for reflecting the images reflected by said first mirror members toward said second visual point (EP 2 ), wherein the first mirror members and the front display unit have substantially the same height, and the first mirror members are arranged so as to abut the front display unit along vertical lines between the central display region and the left and right display regions, thereby preventing the left and right display regions from being seen from each of the first and second visual points (EP 1 , EP 2 ), and magnifying lenses provided between said second visual point and second mirror members.
