Screens are becoming increasingly interactive systems. The 3D effect means that visual information can be understood more quickly by users.

Larger, more visually appealing and with more features, digital displays become an important feature of vehicle cockpits. Neither drivers nor passengers want to be deprived of the display and control features they have on devices such as smartphones and televisions. But there's more to it: in the cockpits of the future, digital displays will not only offer new display and control features, but will also play an important role in the interaction between drivers and their vehicles.

Bosch plays an important role in this with its new 3D display solutions. Bosch uses passive 3D technology on these displays, which enables visual information to be understood faster than traditional displays and creates realistic three-dimensional effects. Dr. Bosch Head of Car Multimedia Systems “The screens are becoming interactive systems that can better anticipate the individual needs of drivers. Bosch has great business potential in this area.

Forecasts show that the global in-car imaging systems market will double by 2025 to $ 30 billion. (Source: Global Market Insights). Bosch sets the benchmark for any vehicle display, whether curved, equipped with organic LED (OLED) or fully customizable displays.

3D effect in car cockpit

3D screens have recently come to the fore in vehicle cockpits. On-screen 3D effects are especially used to enhance the film's entertainment value. But the situation in the vehicles is different. S The depth of field of the screen makes it possible for drivers to understand important visual information more quickly in the event of a driver assistance system or a traffic jam warning. Warnings that appear to jump out of the screen are much more pronounced and give a sense of urgency. ”

In addition, the image from the rear view camera during parking becomes more realistic, enabling obstacles to be detected earlier; drivers have a more precise idea of ​​how much distance is left between the rear fender and a parking wall, for example. When using the navigation in the streets; The spatial depth of the map display instantly shows which building is pointing to the next turn, and the 3D effect also plays a decisive role. Bosch uses passive 3D technology for its new display, without the need for additional features such as visual tracking and 3D glasses.

Back-end makes the difference

As the size of the screens grows, they become more versatile and smart; With the addition of voice and touch control, more computer power is needed. This means even more control units. Even now, 15 back-end processing units control the display and operating systems. Bosch uses only one cockpit computer to coordinate the entire HMI and transfers all control functions to a central control unit. Dr. Bosch Head of Car Multimedia Systems Fen We add intelligence to the cockpit, Stef says Steffen Berns, summarizing Bosch's 3D display technology. Fewer control units mean less weight and also shorten vehicle development times. Thanks to wireless updates, the infotainment system can be kept up to date like a smartphone.

Safety first

In-car displays are subject to strict safety standards. These standards far exceed consumer electronics products, especially in case of temperature fluctuations and vibrations. For example, car displays need to work perfectly at temperatures between minus 40 and plus 120 degrees Celsius, and it is important to maintain this for the entire service life of the vehicle. Even in the event of a partial failure, the drives must always have access to a minimum of important information. For this reason, Bosch operating systems undergo extensive testing to make them suitable for vehicle use.

Like the world's first digital display in the cockpit of the Audi Quattro, Bosch has consistently reached new milestones in vehicle displays since the 1980s. Five years ago, the first programmable display was included in the Audi TT production. In addition, the world's first curved instrument panel developed by Bosch was used in the Innovision cockpit of VW Touareg. Bosch also applies its digital innovations to the screens of motorcycles and eBikes.
