Abstract: A method for controlling a display means on board a motor vehicle, characterized in that it includes: a first step of determining the presence of a disruption in front of the vehicle, in which it is checked that at least one parameter representative of the presence of a disruption in front of the vehicle meets at least one predetermined condition; a second step of developing a display order that is triggered when the predetermined conditions are met, and in which an order to display a pictogram representative of the disruption on the display means is transmitted by an electronic control unit.

Abstract: An adaptive screen including at least one liquid crystal shutter. At least one of the shutters includes at least two active zones which are addressed by a control signal which permits the switchover of the at least one corresponding shutter between a passing configuration, in which a transmittance is equal to a maximum value, and a blocking configuration, in which the transmittance is equal to a minimum value. A “principal” active zone covers a surface area of the adaptive screen which is equal to or lower than 60% of the surface area of the adaptive screen, in order to reduce the response time of the principal active zone.

Abstract: A luminous signalling module for a motor vehicle, including a liquid-crystal display with a back face and a front face; a backlighting panel placed facing the back face of the liquid-crystal display, configured to backlight the liquid-crystal display with a view to forming, by transmission through the display, a luminous image; and a depolarizing optical device, for example a diffuser, facing the front face of the liquid-crystal display, configured to cancel out a linear polarization of the luminous image generated by the liquid-crystal display.

Abstract: A material is proposed for making an electro-optical shutter device. The material includes a host nematic liquid crystal, at least one guest chiral dopant and one guest black dichroic dye. The birefringence (?n) of the host nematic liquid crystal is greater than 0.20. The concentration of the at least one chiral dopant is adjusted so that the material has a pitch in the range of 500 nm to 800 nm. The concentration of the guest black dichroic dye ranges from 2% to 4% by weight of the material. The dichroic ratio of the guest black dichroic dye is greater than or equal to 8.
