DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING MOTION SICKNESS, WHICH IS INTEGRATED INTO A MOTOR VEHICLE
DRIVE
January 19, 2023
An anti-motion sickness device for a motor vehicle includes a triaxial accelerometer to detect vehicle accelerations along three axes and to emit a corresponding acceleration signal; a display component of light markers to form two artificial horizon lines at two inner surfaces, respectively of the vehicle. The horizon lines are perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to each other. The device includes a control unit for receiving the acceleration signals emitted by the accelerometer and capable of driving the display component such that the horizon lines are aligned in a horizontal plane, perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the gravity vector regardless of vehicle accelerations. The position of the horizontal plane along a direction parallel to the gravity vector varies as a function of a physical parameter related to the person sitting in the vehicle by being positioned adjacent the first inner surface and in front of the second inner surface.
