Visualizing an Innovative Future of Smart Mobility Driven by AUO Smart Cockpit 2024 AUO's display solutions play a key role in differentiating in-vehicle experiences across brands. At CES, AUO will showcase the new Smart Cockpit 2024, which brings immersive and engaging visual experience, along with innovative applications that transform the usage and design of vehicle interiors, to meet the growing infotainment needs of drivers and passengers.
The Smart Cockpit 2024 enables automakers to install a series of display HMI solutions, including an advanced pillar-to-pillar curved AmLED® display across the entire instrument panel of the vehicle. This display can house all elements of the driving and infotainment system, connecting drivers and passengers with relevant information and links to infrastructure. Cameras and sensors embedded in the display facilitate the integration of innovative applications. Additionally, the passenger screen's built-in active privacy mode is designed to prevent driver distraction, contributing to a safer driving experience.
Integrating Next-Generation Micro LED Display Technology for Unparalleled Cockpit Design Aesthetics Next-generation Micro LED display technology is paving the way for immersive cockpit experiences. Through the utilization of Micro LED technology, AUO revolutionizes cockpit design concepts. This incorporates the integration of high-transparency Micro LED displays into the side windows of vehicles, providing touch functionality for entertainment, online video conferencing, and the exhibition of safety warning information. The "Interactive Transparent Window," which boasts these remarkable innovations, has received the esteemed CES "Best of Innovation" accolade.
Also featured is the "Rollable RSE," a CES 2024 Innovation Award Honoree. This innovative technology harnesses the flexible and bendable advantages of Micro LED displays, enables the display to be rolled up and concealed in the front seat backrest, creating a spacious and adaptable passenger space. The Rollable RSE enhances the passenger experience with its high-definition, clear, and bright Micro LED display, providing an interactive and sensory experience while also incorporating personalized design elements.
AUO's Micro LED display and sensing technologies revolutionize the way drivers and passengers interact with the cockpit and the outside world, with intuitive touch experiences that meet both aesthetic and ergonomic design standards. Also featured is the "Intuitive Steering Wheel Touch Control," embedded with concealed operation buttons on the steering wheel grip. This solution connects with the "Immersive Panoramic HUD," offering ergonomic design and aesthetic appeal while allowing drivers to visualize and control systems like air conditioning and volume directly on the windshield, enhancing safety. The "Blended HMI Surface," serving as the central control interface, can be concealed under various materials to seamlessly integrate with the cabin's interior design, becoming visible only when operating essential functions.
Fostering Energy-saving and Carbon Reduction Initiatives in Innovative Display Solutions to Drive Smart Mobility Services AUO's smart mobility solutions extends beyond the cockpit. The "EVSE HMI Solution" integrates outdoor-specific Display HMI with Industrial PC (IPC) to meet the demanding temperature and UV resistance standards of outdoor settings. It offers unobstructed visibility outdoors and fulfills the needs of smart mobility services, such as charging information and payments. AUO's "ChLC Outdoor Full-color Display" endures challenging outdoor environments. It functions exceptionally in a broad temperature spectrum spanning from -30 degrees Celsius to 85 degrees Celsius, and showcases enhanced color saturation and visibility, particularly in bright lighting conditions. The cholesterol liquid crystal display incorporates bi-stable technology, resulting in zero power consumption during display and enabling its compatibility with off-grid solar power systems. With its effortless installation and low power consumption, this option is exceptionally energy-efficient and eco-friendly, making it ideal for outdoor electronic billboards.
Implementation of Green Production and Development of Innovative Composite Materials to Reduce Carbon Footprint In response to the ESG sustainability trend, green manufacturing and eco-friendly products play a pivotal role in the domain of Smart Mobility. AUO holds the distinction of being the first display manufacturer to become a member of RE100, and commits to using 100 percent renewable energy by 2050. AUO also takes significant steps to accelerate its low-carbon transformation and achieve this goal, developing carbon solutions at every stage of the product lifecycle, from raw materials and manufacturing processes to usage. AUO invests in the development of innovative applications for a new generation of high-value materials, intending to substitute conventional metals and reducing carbon emissions by introducing different materials. These new materials effectively reduce weight and lower energy consumption in automotive power usage. This initiative is consistent in enabling customers to repurpose resources and collectively move towards the goal of achieving 100 percent renewable energy.
