TL;DR: In this paper, a dashboard for use in a vehicle is provided, which consists of a dashboard display screen and a processor that determines a condition, such as fuel condition, brake fluid condition, speed condition, tire pressure condition, oil condition, an engine condition, instrument condition, a washer fluid condition and anti-lock brake system condition.
Abstract: A dashboard for use in a vehicle is provided. The dashboard comprises a dashboard display screen and a processor. The dashboard display presents a plurality of information components to a vehicle occupant and the processor determines a condition. The condition is comprised of at least one of a fuel condition, a brake fluid condition, a speed condition, a tire pressure condition, an oil condition, an engine condition, an instrument condition, a washer fluid condition, an anti-lock brake system condition, a traction control system condition, a windshield wiper motor condition, a safety restraint system condition, and a weather condition. The processor adapts a first display signal based on the condition and sends the first display signal to the dashboard display screen to command presentation by the dashboard display screen of the information components. Adapting the first display signal comprises at least one of changing size, changing location, and changing the scale of at least one information component presented on the dashboard display screen.

TL;DR: In this article, a dashboard for a motor vehicle comprising at least one ventilation outlet and one ventilation channel connected between the dashboard, in addition to an airbag module which is maintained behind the dashboard and in whose housing a gas generator and an inwardly folded gas bag are arranged.
Abstract: A dashboard for a motor vehicle comprising at least one ventilation outlet and one ventilation channel connected thereto and arranged between the dashboard, in addition to an airbag module which is maintained behind the dashboard and in whose housing a gas generator and an inwardly folded gas bag are arranged. An exit opening is provided for the unfolding gas bag in the dashboard, said opening being sealed by a cover which opens when the airbag module is released. The invention is characterized in that the airbag module (16) is arranged adjacent to the ventilation channel (12) such that the gas bag (18) unfolds into the ventilation channel (12), when the airbag module (16) is released, and unfolds out of the instrument panel (11) via the ventilation exit (13,14). The ventilation exit (13,14), which is arranged in the dashboard (11) is moved away by the pressure of the unfolding gas bag (18).

TL;DR: In this article, a driving simulator for video games is described, which includes an apparatus and method for moving the visual display of the dashboard relative to the visual displays of the outside scene by horizontal scrolling when the car is being turned.
Abstract: A driving simulator for a video game is disclosed. It includes an apparatus and method for moving the visual display of the dashboard relative to the visual display of the outside scene by horizontal scrolling when the car is being turned. A model processor calculates an acceleration vector acting on the drivers head based upon conditions affecting the vehicle such as acceleration during turns. This acceleration vector is scaled and converted to an integer from floating point. The integer value is then digitally low pass filtered to eliminate the graininess of the discrete nature of the process. Finally two routines are called which use the integer data to calculate where the dash, mirror and cab sidepost are to be displayed in the scene of the simulated environment displayed to the driver. Another routine is then called to load the appropriate data into the hardware which performs the scrolling.
