[0019] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, this blind-zone visible A-pillar includes an A-pillar trim substrate 100, a sensing device 200, a controller 300, and an image presentation device. The image presentation device is connected to the A-pillar trim substrate 100. The sensing device 200 is electrically connected to the controller 300, and the controller 300 is electrically connected to the image presentation device. The sensing device 200 acquires the external vehicle environment information and transmits this information to the controller 300 for processing. After the controller 300 processes the information, it outputs the image information of the A-pillar trim substrate 100, and the image presentation device presents the image information on its surface.

[0020] Specifically, as a first method, the sensing device 200 is an electronic ink layer 400. The electronic ink layer 400 functions to present images. There is an information input port related to the electronic ink layer 400 on the A-pillar trim substrate 100. There is a sealant 600 between the A-pillar trim substrate 100 and the electronic ink layer 400. The electronic ink layer 400 is adhered to the A-pillar trim substrate 100 through the sealant 600. The sealant 600 functions to prevent water and dust and for connection. The outside of the electronic ink layer 400 is connected with a cover protective film 500, which functions to protect the electronic ink layer 400 and make its surface scratch-resistant. The sensing device 200 is electrically connected to the controller 300, and the controller 300 is electrically connected to the electronic ink layer 400. During operation, through existing sensing devices 200 such as an external vehicle camera, the external vehicle environment information is acquired and transmitted to the relevant controller 300 for processing. After the relevant controller 300 processes the information, it outputs the image information corresponding to the A-pillar area. After receiving the image information, the electronic ink layer 400 presents it on its surface, enabling the driver to see the situation in the corresponding blind zone on the A-pillar.

[0021] As Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the sensing device 200 is a flexible screen 700. An A-pillar screen bracket 800 and a screen transparent protective layer 900 are provided on the flexible screen 700. After the flexible screen 700 is bonded to the A-pillar screen bracket 800, it is installed on the vehicle body. The screen transparent protective layer 900 is bonded to the outer surface of the flexible screen 700. Among them, the A-pillar screen bracket 800 plays a role in connecting the vehicle body and supporting the flexible screen 700. The flexible screen 700 plays a role in presenting the blind area vision of the A-pillar. The screen transparent protective layer 900 plays a role in protecting the screen and improving scratch resistance. The sensing device 200 is electrically connected to the controller 300, and the controller 300 is electrically connected to the flexible screen 700 to transmit this information to the relevant controller 300 for processing. After the relevant controller 300 processes the information, the image information corresponding to the A-pillar area is output. After receiving the image information, the flexible screen 700 presents it on the surface, so that the driver can see the situation of the corresponding blind area on the A-pillar. In this way, based on the external camera of the existing vehicle, with the support of the flexible screen 700 and electronic ink, the electronic ink or the flexible screen 700 can be simply used on the A-pillar trim substrate 100 to present the corresponding vehicle exterior image or color block of the A-pillar, increasing the link between the driver and the external environment, reducing the sense of space restraint, reducing the visual blind area, and improving driving safety.
