Switchable Privacy Display

100% IMAGE QUALITY. ZERO DISTRACTION.

In the short term, passenger displays will become mainstream for seamless mobility. For a holistic user experience the passenger display should be able to show content visible to all passengers in the car. In addition, the co-driver needs the possibility for interaction with the passenger display. Watching movies is one essential entertainment aspect for in-car infotainment.

However, the driver must not get distracted by movies or other media that is used by the co-driver. Therefore, the passenger display must be able to be switched into a state, where the driver cannot see screen content of the person sitting next to them.

100% IMAGE QUALITY. ZERO DISTRACTION.

With this technology, passengers can engage with multimedia content such as videos or the infotainment system outside the driver's view. In private mode, a strongly directed backlight makes content fully visible only from the passengers viewing angle. If necessary and if the traffic situation permits, the display can be switched to a public mode allowing the driver and the passenger experience the content.

 

The privacy backlight is achieved by a special display system design ensuring automotive premium visual performance.
