A vehicle display assembly may comprise a transparent element defining a viewing surface, a display element disposed behind the transparent element, and a printed circuit board in electrical communication with the display element. The display element is configured to generate an image visible through the transparent element. The vehicle display assembly may be in communication with at least one of a vehicle sensor and a vehicle computer. The images appearing in the display element may change orientation based on the presence or absence of a vehicle occupant.

An LED indicating device, in particular for a vehicle instrument cluster, has a plate provided with at least one light permeable portion adapted to be illuminated by a plurality of LED sources arranged in a position spaced apart from such a rear surface of such a light permeable portion; the device has a body which is arranged between the LED sources and the rear surface of the light permeable portion and has a first surface facing the LED sources and a second surface facing the rear surface; the body consists of a matrix made of a light impermeable material and of a plurality of light permeable elements, which are embedded in the matrix in positions spaced apart from one another and continuously extend from the first surface to the second surface.

A display device for a motor vehicle having at least one annular gauge (1) and a display panel (2) having a display surface (20) intended to be oriented toward the inside of a passenger compartment of the vehicle. The device comprises a transparent pane (4) positioned facing the display surface (20) and serving as a support for the annular gauge (1).

A vehicular display device includes a facing member having a hole formed therein, an edge-light light guide that guides lights emitted from LEDs, a diffusion member that diffuses light leaking from the edge-light light guide, and a convex light guide having a main part interposed between the diffusion member and the facing member, and a projecting portion projecting into the hole. The lights emitted from the LEDs are guided to the edge-light light guide. The lights guided to the edge-light light guide are diffused by the diffusion member to enter the convex light guide, and leaves from the projecting portion.

A de-icing device (2) is provided for arrangement on a dashboard (1) of a vehicle. The de-icing device (2) has an elongated channel (3) open on at least one side. The elongated channel (3) is configured to provide a heat flow (13). The de-icing device (2) also has a light emitter (4) arranged in the elongated channel (4). A dashboard (1) that includes the de-icing device (2) also is provided.

The invention relates to a display device (210) which is provided with a display (212) and a backlighting unit (218) arranged behind the display (212). The backlighting unit (218) comprises a light guide plate (222) which has an upper light guide plate element (222a) and a lower light guide plate element (222b). Backlight (230) of light sources (220) is fed laterally into the upper light guide plate element (222a), which is emitted from the light emission side (228) of the light guide plate (222) after deflection and scattering within the light guide plate element (222a). Sensor radiation is fed into the lower light guide plate element (222b) by means of proximity sensor system transmitter elements (236), wherein said sensor radiation is likewise emitted from the light emission side (228) of the light guide plate (222) after reflection and scattering. Both light guide plate elements (222a, 222b) are optimized for the wavelengths of the radiation which is fed into the latter. The lateral arrangement of the proximity sensor system transmitter elements (236) and the light sources (220) results in a space-saving arrangement. After reflection on an object located in front of the display (212), the sensor radiation reaches the proximity sensor system receiver elements (238).

A vehicle information display assembly comprises a digital display including a plurality of tell-tales, a first illumination source to provide light to the display, a light guide to transmit the light from the first illumination source to the digital display in an even manner, wherein the light guide defines a plurality of apertures each in a region of one of the plurality of tell-tales, and a plurality of second illumination sources, each proximate to one of the plurality of apertures in the light guide such that one of the plurality of second illumination sources may be activated when a corresponding one of the plurality of tell-tales is activated. A method of communicating information relating to a vehicle operating parameter, and a vehicle information display assembly are also disclosed.

The invention relates to a control interface (1) for controlling at least one function of a unit of a motor vehicle, the control interface comprising a base, a control key tilting in two orthogonal directions, a gimbal interposed between the control key and the base in order to define a first and a second orthogonal tilting direction, a guide rod carried by the lower face of the control key arranged opposite the base and a cruciform guide matrix aligned in the two orthogonal tilting directions and carried by the base and arranged opposite the guide rod and cooperating with the free end thereof so as to prevent tilting of the control key in a direction other than the two orthogonal tilting directions.
