Abstract: A compliant display assembly employing a glass outer screen is configured to permit bending of the glass outer screen without buckling or cracking. The compliant display assembly includes a planar glass sheet, a first planar housing, a second planar housing, and a hinge, wherein the first planar housing is pivotably coupled to the second planar housing via the hinge. The planar glass sheet is attached to the first and second planar housings. The first planar housing is arranged to pivot relative to the second planar housing via the hinge. The hinge is arranged to limit the pivot angle between the first planar housing and the second planar housing to a maximum pivot angle. The hinge is arranged to secure the first planar housing in relation to the second planar housing.

Abstract: A capacitive sensor arrangement has at least one capacitive sensor and a coating applied to a front side of the at least one capacitive sensor. The coating includes a multiple layer structure, which is formed from capacitive layers, which are arranged in plies and electrically connected in series. A touch-sensitive screen can include at least one such capacitive sensor.

Abstract: A cover panel, for at least partially transparently covering at least one display instrument in a vehicle, has a microstructure applied on at least one surface. The microstructure is suitable for scattering visible light which is incident on the cover panel. The at least one window region of the cover panel is cutout from the microstructure. A method for manufacturing such a cover panel uses a molding tool with an applied microstructure matrix for forming a microstructure on a part of the molding tool which is assigned to a surface of a molded cover panel. The parts of the molding tool which are assigned to window regions are cut out from the microstructure matrix.

Abstract: A display instrument for a motor vehicle has a display area visible from a viewing direction. A light source illuminates the display area. A reflector reflects light emitted by the light source. A majority of the light emitted by the light source or reflected being emitted onto the display area or substantially parallel to a main plane of the display area.

Abstract: A combination display instrument in a vehicle has a plurality of display elements and/or display scales inserted into or attached onto a common base. A polarizing film, which is designed to correspond to the base, is arranged in the line of vision of an observer in front of the base. The polarizing film is held in position on the base in a form-fitting and/or force-fitting manner in an assembled state of the combination display instrument by corresponding molded sections in or on a housing of the combination display instrument.
