Important results from the project
The Glass Reality project has aimed at exploring the possibilities of utilizing glass surfaces in vehicles for interactive and / or information purposes. The aim has been to map existing and future technologies as a basis for further R & D projects and with the final goal of implementation in production vehicles. The project has met the target.
Expected long term effects
The project has investigated three tracks: "Camera Monitoring System", "Driver-related displays for feedback" and "Interactive glass for input and feedback". The degree of maturity from a technology and user perspective has been investigated for all tracks and possible concepts for continued R&D projects have been identified with the ultimate goal of implementing the technologies in production vehicles. The parties have also built knowledge for further R&D activities in the area and identified common areas of interest for the partners.
Approach and implementation
NEVS has been project coordinator and main project manager. The project has been conducted in close cooperation with the other project partners; Semcon and RISE. NEVS, Semcon and RISE have shared responsibility for managing the different work packages and all parties have been active in all work packages. The cooperation between the project partners has worked very well.
