Introduction-Digital Cluster
Introduction-Digital Cluster
The digital instrument cluster replaces the most representative parts of the existing dashboard with the screen, such as pointers and numbers. With LCD panel as the display screen, it has become a new interface for human vehicle interaction, and provides complete freedom to change the display freely, providing diversified needs, so that users can define their own instrument system.
The In-vehicle Infotainment System (IVI) serves as the control center of the car, providing entertainment and vehicle information for drivers and passengers. It includes navigation systems, call functions, audio and video streaming, entertainment systems, and various wired and wireless transmission solutions, achieving the integration of external networking resources of the vehicle.
The Digital Cluster and In-vehicle Infotainment System provide the information display and vehicle control required for modern cars, shaping the user experience and performance of modern cars.

LCD Display
Digital cluster offer modern-day displays
Vehicle electronic systems are becoming more and more complex and require complete screen presentation. The digital cluster uses LCD as the display screen, which more powerful graphic processing and display effect than the traditional dashboard, provides rich 2D/3D graphics, connect vehicle network (IoV), so that multimedia entertainment information and basic vehicle information can be displayed more logically, and displayed on a screen. All presented information can be provided to the driver faster and more smoothly and safely during the driving journey. The simplified design of digital cluster can provide more space for the driving area in front of the car. Rich display screen effects provide users with more imagination space and the possibility to create different visual elements.
Digital Cluster Show Its Advantages
Digital cluster screen display the message rich and diverse
Different models and power vehicles need to be designed and manufactured in different ways for its car dashboard design and manufacturing; usually, it is composed by LCD, protection screen, touch screen, backlight and other electronic components. Comparing with the traditional dashboard, the digital cluster information presented on a digital screen is more rich and diverse. The car information, the LCD cluster system and sensors need to work together by adjusting and verifying many times by car manufacturers and designers in order to provide better, safer and more accurate driving information for car users. In addition, the instrument panel is a improtent part of the vehicle. Before installation on the road, it must pass the tests of high temperature, vibration and durability to ensure that the vehicle safety message can be correctly displayed on the road.
