Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although improvements have been proposed to make the output graphical display more realistically resemble real physical elements such as buttons for example, the display is still considered to lack a natural appearance
This lack of similarity can make, for example, buttons more illegible than their physical counterparts and can take longer to find
For example, with regard to graphic displays on vehicle display screens, longer seek times may lead to higher levels of driver distraction

Embodiment Construction

[0037] Non-limiting embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, which show what are presently considered to be preferred embodiments of the disclosure. However, this disclosure may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Like reference characters refer to like elements throughout. Dotted lines in some blocks in the figures indicate that these units or actions are optional rather than mandatory.

[0038] In the following, in accordance with embodiments herein that relate to adapting the graphical display of virtual elements on a display screen to render corresponding imaginary physical elements, it will be disclosed that the rendering can dynamically change as ambient light conditions change so that the graphical display can be compared to the imaginary physical elements. similar to the actual appearance.

Abstract

A method performed by a user interface system (2) is disclosed for adapting a graphic visualization (13) of a virtual element (14) on a display (3) to render a corresponding fictitious physical element. The user interface system determines surrounding light characteristics (401) of surrounding light associated with the display, and determines light adjusted characteristics (403) of the virtual element based on the surrounding light characteristics. The user interface system adapts the graphic visualization based on the light adjusted characteristics, such that the graphic visualization resembles the fictitious physical element (405) should the fictitious physical element have been subjected to the surrounding light. The invention also relates to the above user interface system, and includes a transport (1) of the above user interface system. By considering surrounding light conditions prior to adapting the graphic visualization, the graphic visualization may change appearance depending on surrounding light conditions. The rendering may accordingly change dynamically when the surrounding light conditions change, similar to the appearance of true physical elements, thus providing a more realistic appearance of the graphic visualization.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a user interface system, and a method performed in the user interface system for adapting the graphical display of virtual elements on a display screen to render corresponding imaginary physical elements. Background technique [0002] The use of display screens to digitally present output to users has and is still growing rapidly. Further uses of display screens that interact with the user via touch screen functionality to enable the user to provide input are also rapidly developing. New areas of implementation are emerging all the time, and display screens may be associated with various products, such as computers and electronic devices, such as handheld, for example, or integrated, for example, in vehicles. A vehicle's display screen (eg, associated with an infotainment system) is typically used to provide output, such as an indicator, to the driver, for example, and / or to provide the driver with control functions s...
