The automotive dashboard is the most direct interface for driving control and information transmission in a vehicle. With the development of digitalization and information technology, more and more automobile manufacturers are adopting displays to replace traditional mechanical instrument panels for a more intuitive, convenient and aesthetically pleasing driving experience.

Displays applied to automotive dashboards can be divided into two types: digital dashboards and center screens. Digital instrument clusters are usually installed within the driver's line of sight and display information including vehicle operation information such as speed, RPM, fuel level, water temperature, and additional information such as navigation and entertainment. The digital instrument cluster is operated by multi-touch or physical buttons, and can achieve a variety of functions such as information browsing, driving control, and seat adjustment. The center console, on the other hand, is usually located in the center console position of the car and supports more complex functions such as navigation, audio, etc. It is also an integrated control platform in home entertainment.

Display in the car dashboard there are a variety of options: liquid crystal display, organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display, thin-film transistor (TFT), etc.. With the development of technology, more and more car manufacturers are adopting OLED technology for their displays, which can provide better readability and user experience under different lighting, angles and temperatures due to its ultra-high contrast ratio, smooth display and low energy consumption.

In short, the application of display in automotive dashboard will effectively enhance the car using experience, realize more convenient and intuitive driving control as well as various entertainment and navigation functions, with a broad market prospect and application potential.
