The invention relates to a decorative system based on providing very thin flexible screens on the inner surface of the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, e.g. on the dashboard, central column, doors, etc., which screens adapt to the appearance of the vehicle and are touch sensitive, said screens being connected to control software such that they can display different contents, e.g. images, information relating to the vehicle, or simply imitate different types of vehicle finishes or materials.

A display apparatus includes a support member, a display panel located above the support member, a fixing layer between the support member and the display panel, a cover member located above the display panel and including an active area and a non-active area adjacent the active area, and at least one light shielding layer disposed on a rear surface of the cover member and overlapping the non-active area. The support member includes a base part overlapping the display panel and at least one extension part extending from the base part and protruding from a side surface of the display panel. Further, the extension part covers the side surface of the display panel.

A display apparatus for a vehicle comprising: a display panel configured to display an image on one surface and to be rolled around a shaft; a shaft driving unit configured to rotate the shaft; an image processing unit configured to determine a size and a position of an image, which is to be displayed by the display panel, based on input image information; an image output unit configured to output the image to the display panel according to the size and position of the image determined by the image processing unit; and a driving control unit configured to control the shaft driving unit to adjust an amount of exposure of the display panel according to the size and position of the image o be displayed by the display panel so that an image blank is not generated on the display panel.

A surface display unit incorporates an opaque screen and an image panel. The opaque screen is disposed on the front side of the image panel which provides an optical image. The opaque screen generally hides the image panel while the surface display unit is not in use. When the image panel is activated to provide an optical image, the opaque screen provides a suitable level of transparency so that a viewer can observe the optical image with sufficient clarity. The opaque screen can provide optical enhancement, decorative texture, and/or mechanical support.

A display device for conformal mounting on a curved surface inclined at an oblique angle relative to a horizontal plane, the display device comprising: a plurality of pixels, a first set of conductive lines connected to the plurality of pixels; and a second set of conductive lines connected to the plurality of pixels, wherein the first set of conductive lines and the second set of conductive lines are arranged to define a shape of each of the plurality of pixels such that the pixels appear, to a viewer, to extend at least one of horizontally or vertically across the display device when the display device is mounted on the curved surface.

A motor vehicle includes a window and a body having a storage space with an opening facing toward the window. A flexible electronic display is movable from a first position overlying the window and a second position within the storage space. The window may be a windshield, and the storage space may be within a roof of the vehicle.

A display system may include a first display apparatus and a second display apparatus. The first display apparatus may include a first image-display surface. The second display apparatus may include a second image-display surface. At least one of the first image-display surface and the second image-display surface may perform at least one of extending and bending in response to at least one of a first condition and a second condition. The first condition may be related to that the second image-display surface moves relative to the first image-display surface. The second condition may be related to that a distance between the first image-display surface and the second image-display surface becomes equal to a predetermined length.

A display apparatus may include a display panel, a cover member disposed on a front surface of the display panel, a set frame arranged on a back surface of the cover member and including a fastening member, a core plate arranged on a back surface of the set frame and including a coupling block fastened to the fastening member by a screw pin, and a stress dispersion unit arranged on the fastening member and configured to disperse stress applied to the cover member, the stress being generated in response to the fastening member being fastened to the coupling block by the screw pin. Thus, it is possible to alleviate the phenomenon of cover glass warping or unevenness, by dispersing and mitigating the stress generated during the fastening between the set frame and the core plate.

A display device for the interior of a vehicle includes: (i) a display unit, which is designed for optical display of information and has a display element for this purpose and which can be or is arranged in a longitudinal extension direction of the vehicle behind a front row of seats, preferably on a roof lining of the vehicle; (ii) a movement unit, which is designed to move the display unit, in particular with the display element pivoted away from the roof lining of the vehicle, in the longitudinal extension direction, in particular controllably, between various working positions and/or to hold the display unit in a given working position; and (iii) a control unit which is designed to control the movement unit in such a way that the display unit and the display element are arranged at a predetermined first distance or first distance range from an element of the front row of seats.

A road vehicle comprising a vehicle dashboard, comprising in turn an exposed surface visible from within the passenger compartment; a content display device comprising a projection device which can be rolled up and unrolled, provided with a foldable screen; the projection device further comprising a support structure on which the rear main surface of the foldable screen is mounted; the support structure being rollable and unrollable around a winding axis, arranged within the vehicle dashboard; the vehicle dashboard further comprising a slit on the exposed surface and configured to be traversed by the foldable screen and by the support structure during the rolling up and/or unrolling of the projection device.
