Driving into the Future:

Automotive Instrument Clusters

Welcome to the fascinating world of cutting-edge instrument clusters that are primed to innovate vehicle interiors. Get ready for an exciting journey into the future of driving!

The Digitalization in Vehicle Interiors

In this era of digitalization, vehicle displays have undergone a remarkable transformation. Instrument clusters have evolved into a key differentiator in modern vehicle interiors, serving as the primary interface for driver-vehicle interaction. With technology advancing and user demands changing, interior cockpit designs are undergoing a radical shift.

Empowering Drivers with Information

At the heart of this transformation are instrument clusters, designed to provide drivers with precise and relevant information at any given moment. Imagine a fatigued driver effortlessly accessing critical data without any distraction. Modern instrument clusters achieve this through sophisticated Human-Machine Interface (HMI) concepts.

Safety-Inspired Design

Instrument clusters strike a perfect balance between safety and style. Featuring attractive and well-structured layouts, they keep drivers informed without causing unnecessary distractions.
 
The intuitive design ensures drivers can stay focused on the road while accessing essential information. Moreover, their flexible design allows vehicle manufacturers to customize the appearance to match their unique brand identity.

Features

  • Large portfolio of display sizes and technologies, including optical bonding, free-form and 3D displays
  • Full digital instrument cluster or a hybrid including analog tubes
  • Freely configurable telltales integrated in TFT display or as discrete LEDs (up to ASIL B)
  • Alternatively with embedded graphics controller or driven by an external high performance domain controller
  • Embedded Linux or Integrity based, modular architecture
  • Powerful graphics controller with automotive HMI framework supporting 3D objects and animations
  • All common interfaces supported: CAN, LVDS Input (e.g. for rear-view camera or head-unit), LVDS Output (e.g. for Head-Up Display), digital and analog I/Os, speaker, etc.
