A one-piece display has a main display area at least partly viewable from one point of observation, and a secondary display area arranged so as to not be viewable from that point of observation. The main display area and the secondary display area are arranged relative to one another in such a way that the secondary display area is reflected in the main display area to produce a virtual display plane that is viewable from the point of observation.

A trim element having an outer surface that is at least partially translucent, the outer surface defining a main display surface and a peripheral display surface, the peripheral display surface extending around at least a portion of the main display surface, a screen of a display device extending opposite the main display surface. The trim member includes an illumination device having a luminous sheet extending opposite the main display surface and the peripheral display surface so as to emit at least a first luminous signal onto the screen and at least a second luminous signal illuminating at least a portion of the peripheral display surface when the luminous sheet is activated.

A trim element having a display area defined by a display device, and an edge piece that includes a peripheral area extending around at least part of the display area, the peripheral area being at least partly translucent, the display area and the peripheral area forming at least a part of an outer surface of the trim element. The trim element further includes an illumination device arranged to illuminate the display device to display images on the display area. The illumination device has a luminous sheet extending at least facing the display area and the peripheral area of the edge piece.

A sun visor assembly for a vehicle according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a visor configured to be mounted in a vehicle and pivotable between a first position and a second position. A display is mounted on the visor. The display is pivotable between a stowed position and a viewing position relative to the visor.

A display device includes a circuit board including a first circuit portion, a second circuit portion, and a third circuit portion, a first display panel on the first circuit portion, and configured to emit a first light, a second display panel on the second circuit portion, and configured to emit a second light, a third display panel on the third circuit portion, and configured to emit a third light, and an optical combiner configured to combine the first light, the second light, and the third light to output a light.

A lead vehicle braking warning system includes a speed sensor, a detector, a display and an electronic controller. The speed sensor measures current speed of a host vehicle. The detector detects current speed of a lead vehicle relative to the speed of the host vehicle. The display has a braking condition display area configured to display each of a plurality of braking conditions of the lead vehicle for the operator of the host vehicle. The electronic controller is in electronic communication with the speed sensor, the detector and the display. The electronic controller determines whether or not the lead vehicle is currently decelerating and determine which one of a plurality of braking conditions is currently being experienced by the lead vehicle and display information identifying the current one of the plurality of braking conditions of the lead vehicle within the braking condition display area of the display.

A display device includes a housing with an opening; an electro-optic layer that includes a transmissive-reflective layer and configured to vary reflectivity of incident light; a display provided on the electro-optic layer; a control circuit that controls an operation of the display device; and an actuator that switches the electro-optic layer between first and second postures, wherein the control circuit: controls an operation of the display, generates a trimmed image matching a shape of the opening or a shape of the display, outputs the trimmed image to the display, controls the reflectivity of the electro-optic layer when the electro-optic layer is in the second posture, and does not control the reflectivity of the electro-optic layer when the electro-optic layer is in the first posture, and the display is visible to a driver through the electro-optic layer when the control circuit controls the display to display the trimmed image.

A display device includes a transparent display screen element, which has a front side and a rear side opposite to the front side, and a polarizing element arranged flatly on the rear side of the transparent display screen element. The polarizing element is to attenuate light output by at least one lighting element of the transparent display screen element. A motor vehicle may have such a display device, in particular where the display device may be arranged freestanding at or on an interior trim element of the motor vehicle.

A display panel is capable of displaying a meter image that includes a pointer image constituting a pointer and a mark image constituting a mark pointed to by the pointer. A display controller controls a display state of the display panel. The display panel simultaneously displays a plurality of meter images including a first meter image and a second meter image and a background image encircling the plurality of meter images and is capable of switching the first meter image to a third meter image, which is the meter image of a type different from the first meter image, and displaying the third meter image. The display controller changes a display mode of at least one of the second meter image, the third meter image, or the background image when switching the first meter image to the third meter image and displaying the third meter image on the display panel.

A rollable display device for a vehicle may include: a housing forming a body of the rollable display device, and having a housing space formed therein; a roller part rotatably housed in the housing space; and a display panel wound around the roller part or unwound from the roller part, according to the rotation direction of the roller part. The display panel may include: a screen part configured to receive an output signal from the outside, and output various pieces of information; and a support part disposed on a rear surface of the screen part, and configured to support the screen part in a horizontal direction and a vertical direction.
