Abstract

See full text

One or more embodiments of techniques or systems for 3-dimensional (3-D) navigation are provided herein. A heads-up display (HUD) component can project graphic elements on focal planes around an environment surrounding a vehicle. The HUD component can cause these graphic elements to appear volumetric or 3-D by moving or adjusting a distance between a focal plane and the vehicle. Additionally, a target position for graphic elements can be adjusted. This enables the HUD component to project graphic elements as moving avatars. In other words, adjusting the focal plane distance and the target position enables graphic elements to be projected in three dimensions along an x, y, and z axis. Further, a moving avatar can be ‘animated’ by sequentially projecting the avatar on different focal planes, thereby providing an occupant with the perception that the avatar is moving towards or away from the vehicle.
