Abstract

A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for providing an in-vehicle display of information for an object of interest. Sound data is received from a sound sensor system connected to the vehicle. The sound data is for sounds detected in an exterior environment around the vehicle. The sound data is analyzed for a presence of an object of interest. The location of the object of interest is determined using the sound data in response to detecting the presence of the object of interest. A visual indicator for the object of interest is displayed using an electronic display system in the vehicle to augment a live view of the exterior environment seen through a window of the vehicle for the in-vehicle display of the information for the object of interest to draw attention to the object of interest in the live view.
