A User-centric Enhanced Pathway (UEP) system may provide vehicle pathway guidance while driving using an augmented reality display system in the event of sun glare. The system uses a route observer module programmed to predict sun glare, by obtaining real-time information about the interior and exterior vehicle environment, heading, speed, and other data. The route observer module may also use an inward-facing camera to determine when the driver is squinting, which may increase the probability function that predicts when the driver is experiencing sun glare. When sun glare is predicted, the route observer sends the weighted prediction function and input signals to a decision module that uses vehicle speed, location, and user activity to determine appropriate guidance output for an enhanced pathway using an Augmented Reality (AR) module. The AR module may adjust brightness, contrast, and color of the AR information based on observed solar glare.
