At CES 2024, Aumovio and technology partner trinamiX presented an OLED display with a camera mounted behind the display, still under the Continental banner. This concept is now going into series production in the premium segment.

Aumovio has received a major order for its OLED displays with an invisible camera integrated under the display. The display is intended for a volume model of a European premium manufacturer.

The camera module implemented under the display, which is important for comfort and safety functions, has two advantages. Firstly, the cockpit can be designed more clearly. Secondly, drivers often find a visible camera pointing at them annoying. This increases acceptance among users and opens up new possibilities to improve the driver experience. Studies by AUMOVIO have shown that drivers find a visible camera pointing at them annoying. However, when camera-based functions are integrated unobtrusively, they are not only accepted but even welcomed—similar to smartphones, where facial recognition has now become the norm, as Pavel Prouza, Head of User Experience at the supplier, explains: "By placing the camera invisibly under the active area of the driver's display, we create space for modern, minimalist cockpit designs. At the same time, we are making a significant contribution to the further development of safety-relevant assistance functions and are enjoying wider acceptance among users."

Pixel Design Meets OLED Technology

The camera is positioned below the active display area to provide an optimal view of the driver and enable safety functions such as attention and drowsiness detection. Thanks to its innovative pixel design, the display area above the camera ensures a seamless display. Bulky camera modules that do not match the modern and minimalist design of the vehicle interior are now a thing of the past.

The OLED technology used is said to impress with its outstanding color space and deep black levels. (se)
