To provide a capacitive input device that enables the user to feel that the input operation has been done. A capacitive input device includes a surface sheet, a soft member, and a sensor sheet configured to detect a change in capacitance. The surface sheet includes an operation area on which a touching operation is to be performed. The soft member is provided between the operation area and the sensor sheet. The sensor sheet includes a sensor electrode located at a position corresponding to the operation area. When the operation area is pressed in a touching operation, the surface sheet and the soft member are displaced toward the sensor sheet and the sensor electrode detects the capacitance.

A vehicle display device comprises: a housing forming an opening to an interior; a display module positioned in the interior of the housing, the display module including a substrate; a cover glass that covers the opening to the interior of the housing, the cover glass at least partially bounded by an exposed glass edge, the cover glass attached to the substrate by an optically clear adhesive, wherein an outermost region of the cover glass extends beyond an edge of the substrate; and a protective film positioned along at least part of the exposed glass edge, the protective film attached to an inside of the cover glass at the outermost region.

Embodiments of the disclosure relate to a method of assembling a glass article. The glass article includes a display module and a glass sheet. In the method, an electronic ribbon connector is positioned in a vertical position. The electronic ribbon connector has a first end connected to the display module and a second free end. The display module is attached to the glass sheet. Adhesive is applied to the glass sheet around the display module. A frame is arranged over the glass sheet. The frame has a depending edge and a slot positioned adjacent to the depending edge. The frame is moved towards the glass sheet such that the second free end of the electronic ribbon connector extends through the slot and such that the depending edge of the frame contacts the adhesive.

A control panel for a vehicle and having: a digital screen; a pointer, which can be arranged on the digital screen and is mounted in a movable manner so as to move on the digital screen; and an actuator device configured to move the pointer on the digital screen. The pointer is movable so as to be arranged on the digital screen and to be arranged beside the digital screen and without overlap on the digital screen. The actuator device transmits the motion to the pointer through a contactless magnetic coupling.

A control panel for a vehicle and having: a main digital screen having at least one through opening made within it and completely surrounded by the main digital screen; a secondary digital screen, which is arranged behind the main digital screen in the area of the through opening of the main digital screen so that it is visible through the through opening; a pointer, which can be arranged between the main digital screen and the secondary digital screen and is mounted in a movable manner so as to move on the secondary digital screen; and an actuator device configured to move the pointer on the secondary digital screen.

Disclosed is a display for a vehicle including a plastic cover lens including a lens, a front film disposed on a front surface of the lens, and a rear film disposed on a rear surface of the lens, a super retardation film (SRF) adhered to a rear surface of the plastic cover lens using an optically clear adhesive (OCA), a liquid crystal display module adhered to a rear surface of the super retardation film using the optically clear adhesive, a panel-front assembled at the rear of the plastic cover lens, in close contact with and supporting the liquid crystal display module, and preventing deformation of the plastic cover lens, and a rear cover assembled at the rear of the panel-front.

An on-vehicle display device includes a fixed panel fixed to a vehicle body, a display unit, and a bracket that fixes the display unit to the fixed panel. In the display unit, the display cover plate is provided with an overhang which laterally overhangs from a display area, and the overhang has a back side supported by a support piece of the bracket without being fixed to the fixed panel.

An interchangeable face gauge structure for automobile gauges comprises a gauge body, a face gauge, a retainer ring and an outer cover. The gauge body and outer cover are combined by means of assembling, which causes the outer cover to be dismountable from and re-mountable on the gauge body. The face gauge is additionally mounted on the surface of the light directing panel on the gauge body, which allows the face gauge to be replaceable with one of the type to the liking of the user after the outer cover is dismounted from the gauge body, improving the variability and visual effect of the gauge body. Further, with the convenience of the outer cover being easily mountable on the gauge body, the user is allowed to replace and mount parts by themselves, adding to the practicality of the structure.

Innovative peripheral bar assembly for a transportation vehicle is provided. One method includes retrieving, by a processor of a seat device of an aircraft coupled to a removable, peripheral bar assembly having a plurality of programmable, light emitting diodes (LEDs), configuration information to operate the LEDs; transmitting, by the processor, one or more commands to the peripheral bar assembly to operate one or more of the LEDs; and operating, by the peripheral bar assembly, the one or more LEDs, in response to the one or more commands to indicate non-verbal communication based on one or more pre-defined communication protocols indicating a seat-by-seat status.

Vehicle interior with a retractable flexible display, providing a regulation and good integration, comprising a dashboard and a display assembly, the dashboard comprises internal fixing configurations and a top wall facing the windshield of the vehicle; the display assembly comprises two parallel guide rails, a flexible screen attached on a flexible support configured to run along the guide rails, and driving means arranged for moving the flexible support along the guide rails, each guide rail comprises a first segment, a second segment and a third segment, the first segment remains totally or partially under the top wall of the dashboard, the second segment comprises a curved portion being concave regarding the dashboard, the first segment is attached to the internal fixing configurations of the dashboard, in such a way the flexible screen can be disclosed to the vehicle interior in any extension according to its displacement along the guide rails.
