‘Digital cockpit’ describes the advanced technology layers incorporated into car dashboards. Digital cockpits can provide a wide range of information in an intuitive and user-friendly way, offering advantages over discrete analog single-function indicators.
The first digital cockpits came around 2018. They’ve been evolving new types of innovations year upon year. Their morphology is changing, too: new software layers with digital cockpit controllers, operating systems, and other in-car computers and systems. All this is consequent to the trends toward software-defined vehicles…or is it the other way round, and the digital cockpit is the stem of the SDV? Have a look of recent developments in this week’s In-Depth piece..
The biggest display conference and fair of the year took place shortly ago in San Jose, California, and DVN Consultant Shammika Wickramasinghe was there. The first summary of his report is included in this week’s Interior News. Windshield projections, 3D displays, evolving film-based technology, and microLEDs are being used together to open up new possibilities in the info-display space and in interior and exterior lighting applications.
Sincerely yours,
