Moreover, the augmented reality vehicular display method 200 is distinguishable from a display method that comprises a step of filtering that changes the colour of an image as though a camera filter lens that alters the colour of the light or the amount of light that passes through the lens was put on a camera used to capture the image. In contrast to the aforementioned display method, the augmented reality vehicular display method 200 comprises a step of generating a particular type of augmented display information in a user selected colour whilst the rest of display, for instance, an image, remains unchanged. Similarly, the augmented reality vehicular display method 200 is distinguishable from another display method that comprises a step of changing the colour scheme for all types of augmented display information, because the augmented reality vehicular display method 200 comprises a step of generating a specific type of augmented display information in a user selected colour whilst the other types of augmented display information remain unchanged.
Although the invention has been described in considerable detail with reference to certain embodiments or aspects, other embodiments or aspects are possible.
