Abstract
A customisable display device for vehicles displaying different video/image data 10 from multiple sources 11 in designated windows A-E based on a processed multi-window video/image signal. A video data processor 30 connected to a touch screen control unit 50 may allow the user to manually control the individual window positions and sizes 40. The window parameters may update when controlled by the user. Different display 60 configurations for when the vehicle is moving forward, reversing or stationary may be stored on the device. The system may sense the current vehicle status and request a new custom window configuration depending on whether the vehicle is moving forward, reversing or parked. Video data captured by cameras may be combined with distance data from a distance sensor 70 to display vital information when manoeuvring. Analogue video data may be passed through analogue to digital (A/D) converters 20 before input to the processor.

l.Fieldofthelnvention
The present invention relates to a display devIce for vehicles and more particular to a display device selectIvely displaying video data in at least one window azording to personal preferences.
2. Description oflelaledAit
Electronic automobile accessories have been developed and become standard equipment mr many vehIcles, such as, (IFS p1kb, optkal disk players and the like. Further a reverse sensing system for vehicles comprising cameras to capture images behInd vehicles is also available. Captured video data is transndued to and displayed by a display device near a drivefl seat to aId -a.
Different electronic products for $ vehicle may alt share the saint display device based on picture in picture (PIP) technique, showing multiple windows at the same timt However, window positions are pre-determined and fixed so desired video data cannot be optionally selecS and the window positions in the display device cannot be designated.
To overtome the shonconting. the present invention provides a display device for vehicles to mitigate or obviate the aforementioned problem.
The main objective of the present invention is to provide a display device for vehicles to selectively display video data in at least one window accordIng to personal preference.

For example, based on the reveningatus parameters, the display unit (60) may show five windows (A) to (E) as shown in Fig. 9A respectively corresponding to video data of cameras (Cl), (C4). (C2), (C3) and (CS).
In the step of requesting multi-window video signal under static-status pnnners (I 105X the maIn control unit (50) controls the video data processing unit (30) to produce the multi-window video signal based on the static-status parameters when the vehicle is dnennined to be stopped. For example. based on the static.atus parameters, the display wilt (60) may show video data from the optical dIsk player or the digital television.
With fwlber reference to Figs. I 2A and lit the image overlapping prngi'am integrates distance data into a specific image to produce an overlapped image signal. The distance data may be integrated with different images illustrating an obstacle is detected in front of or behind the vehicle. The overlapped image signal is timber transmitted to the vIdeo data processing St (30) as another video source and is combined whit other video data to generate a multi-window video signal For example, the window (E) may display the overlapped image signal like FIg. I 2A when the vehicle is moving forward. The window (A) as shown in Fig 9B may display the overlapped image signal like Fig. 12B when the vehicle is reversing.
11w display device of the present invention allows a user to decIde the nwnbas and posItIons of windows to be shown, and desIgnate the diDreot vIdeo sources to desirtd windows. The user also can select desired video data for different vehicle statuses so that the display device automatically shows the selected video data depended on the determined stats. For eaunple when the vehicle is rcversing, images behind the vehicle nuty be preferable and when the vehicle is moving forwani. images in front of the vehIcle or (31'S informatIon may be preferable.
