Streamlined and Curved Car Displays with Tremendous Design Flexibility

Smart cars are now equipped with diverse HMI systems that require a lot more displays to support. AUO has seized the opportunities by developing a full range of high performance car displays applying multiple panel lamination. Specifically, one vehicle cockpit display joins a 12.3-inch cluster and a 20-inch CID/front passenger seat panel by direct bonding lamination, yielding a huge streamlined display with high resolution, high brightness and 1,200R curvature; another V-shaped vehicle cockpit display consisting of a 12.3-inch cluster and 12.3-inch CID comes in 300R curvature and cold-form cover lens, enabling accurate image performance.

AUO has successfully applied smart HMI systems on curved displays without sacrificing their brightness, as demonstrated by the 12.3-inch high resolution cluster display exhibiting 750R curvature while supporting dynamic backlight for images with 1,000-nit high brightness and high dynamic range. The 14.5-inch LTPS CID panel integrates both in-cell touch solution and curved design, with the display bent on the sides where TDDI (touch and display driver integration) ICs are located. As a result the display appears in a compact structure, closely integrated with the car interior to provide all the more intuitive and convenient user experience.
