A vehicle control apparatus includes a display device provided in a body. The display device includes a display configured to display visual information and a driving unit configured to change at least one of a shape of the display and a position of the display according to a mode, in which the body further includes a hidden area selectively covered by a lower portion of the display. The driving unit exposes or does not expose the hidden area by changing the position of the display, the mode includes an exposure mode in which the hidden area is exposed and a non-exposure mode in which the hidden area is not exposed. An arrangement of one or more buttons of the hidden area in the exposure mode is identical to arrangement of one or more buttons of the partial area of the display in the non-exposure mode.

Provided is a display device. The display device includes: a display module, having a bendable display region and a planar display region; an encapsulation housing, disposed on a non-display side of the display module, wherein a receiving chamber is formed between the encapsulation housing and the non-display side of the display module; and at least one support assembly, disposed in the receiving chamber, wherein the support assembly at least comprises a first retractable linkage and a first drive motor, a first end of the first retractable linkage is connected to the encapsulation housing, and a second end of the first retractable linkage is connected to the non-display side of the display module.

A bendable display device is disclosed. The bendable display device includes: a base module; a display module including a first flat portion, a second flat portion, and a bendable portion; and a bending module configured to transition from a first state in which the first flat portion faces a first direction to a second state in which the first flat portion faces a second direction. The bending module includes: a rear plate coupled to a rear surface of the first flat portion of the display module; a rotary arm extending from the rear plate in a direction away from a rear surface of the display module; a bending link having one end coupled to the rotary arm through a rotary shaft; and a first driver configured to provide power in a first direction to the bending link. When the first driver provides power in the first direction, the rotary arm rotates and the display module transitions to the second state.

A bendable display device is disclosed. The bendable display device includes: a display module including a first flat portion, a second flat portion, and a bendable portion disposed between the first flat portion and the second flat portion; a bending module configured to bend and deform the bendable portion so that the first flat portion transitions from a first state in which the first flat portion faces a first direction to a second state in which the first flat portion faces a second direction; and a slide module configured to slide the second flat portion in the first direction so that the first flat portion transitions from the second state to a third state in which the first flat portion further moves in the second direction. The bending module includes a rear plate provided with a rear slot into which a rear pin formed on a rear surface of the first flat surface is inserted. When transitioning from the second state to the third state, the rear pin slides on the rear slot.

An electronic device including an electronic module, an inflator and an airbag is disclosed. The airbag is configured to be inflated by a gas produced by the inflator. The electronic module is disposed on the airbag and includes a first surface, a corner connecting with the first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. When the airbag is not inflated by the gas, at least a portion of the second surface is disposed between the first surface and the air bag, and the electronic module is at least partially overlapped with the airbag and not overlapped with the inflator in a top-view direction of the electronic module. When the airbag is inflated by the gas, the airbag contacts the corner of the electronic module, and the airbag at least partially contacts the first surface of the electronic module in the top-view direction of the electronic module.

A system for displaying images on a surface of a vehicle may include a smart display sheet adhered to a component of the vehicle or integrally formed into a component of the vehicle such as an outer body panel or wheel of the vehicle. The smart display sheet is configured to display at least one image. The system may also include a display controller configured to output display instructions to the smart display sheet and at least one power source secured to the vehicle. The at least one power source is configured to provide power to the smart display sheet, and the at least one power source may be independent from a vehicle power source of the vehicle.

A motor vehicle has a vehicle interior in which a flexible OLED display device is arranged, To create a high degree of individualization with a simple design, the flexible OLED display device is part of an interior panel and at least one electrical servomotor is provided and adjusts the flexible OLED display device for the representation of spatial structures.

A display assembly for an automotive interior comprises a dynamically bendable cover panel having first and second panel portions a flexible panel portion connecting the first and second panel portions, a display positioned adjacent the first and second panel portions, and a frame that supports the cover panel and comprises a first frame portion for supporting the first panel portion, a second frame portion for supporting the second panel portion, and a hinge portion coupling the first frame portion and the second frame portion, the hinge portion configured to induce a curvature having smoothly connected arc segments in the flexible panel portion between the first panel portion and the second panel portion when the second frame portion is articulated relative to the first frame portion from a straight position to a deployed position.
