Measurement Solutions for Automotive Display Technology

Automotive display technology moves in pace with consumer electronics, subject to the same level of expectation from the consumer but with additional technical requirements that must be considered to meet standards and to deliver a product with high perceived value to the customer. The proliferation of display and touchscreen technology in automobiles has made this technology the gateway to the user experience and so the quality of systems have a great impact on the satisfaction of the customer and perceived quality.

Konica Minolta and group company Radiant Vision Systems produce measurement solutions for the specification and testing of the luminance and colour of display technology including Infotainment, HUD, and Lidar and illuminated switches, or feedback elements like dashboard buttons, or armrest controls and cluster symbols.

Automotive manufacturers can maximise the perceived quality of the user experience for display and control elements whilst insuring that standards for visibility, viewing angle, legibility, accuracy, and uniformity are met. The same technologies used for high quality consumer electronic displays can be applied to development, production, and in-situ testing.

Traceable and trusted solutions for digital luminance data can greatly expedite the process of development, production, and QC testing.

Our expert teams can help to implement a system that allows all parties; from equipment manufacturer through to QC, to work in a more streamlined, collaborative, and consistent way. Experience shows that a data driven approach allows supply chains to build relationships based on quality and consistency, reducing subjectivity and simplifying specification and approval.

Offering customers a global network of sales, support, and expertise, Konica Minolta can deliver tested solutions to customers in the automotive industry. Our network of authorised service facilities provides ongoing maintenance and calibration of devices to minimise downtime and ensure that systems remain traceable throughout their working life.
