Behr-Hella Thermocontrol (BHTC) and Corning Incorporated are collaborating to deliver a new, outstanding user experience for drivers.
The collaboration between these two companies will allow automakers to take advantage of BHTC’s HMI expertise and Corning’s glass innovations to create vehicles with cutting-edge infotainment systems.
BHTC’s 15” OLED display, combined with Corning’s ColdForm™ Technology, allows BHTC to optically bond display and cover glass with a convex curvature, supporting a radius of 200 mm. With Corning’s LivingHinge™ technology and the electromechanical integration of BHTC, displays are dynamically bendable. This innovative design creates a seamless, closed display surface while in off-mode, reducing distraction and enhancing safety for drivers. In an autonomous driving state, the dynamic display bends outward to show more information without sacrificing driver safety.
BHTC and Corning will showcase the technology at CES 2023 in Las Vegas (January 5-8, 2023).
