Solution Overview
Problem
Current motor vehicles lack the ability to individually customize a large area of the vehicle interior, limiting user personalization and flexibility in design.
Innovation Solution
Integration of flexible OLED display devices with electric servomotors that can adjust to create spatial, three-dimensional, and relief-like structures on interior panels, allowing for extensive customization of vehicle surfaces such as ceiling liners, door panels, seats, and dashboards.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If flexible OLED display devices are integrated into interior panels, then the degree of individualization and customization of vehicle interior is improved, but the device complexity and manufacturing difficulty increase
Solution Approach 1:
The vehicle interior is divided into multiple interior panels (door panels, ceiling liners, dashboard, seats) that can be independently equipped with flexible OLED display devices. Each panel can be individually customized without affecting others, allowing high degree of personalization while managing complexity through modular design
Solution Approach 2:
The flexible OLED display devices serve multiple functions: they can display images, create spatial three-dimensional structures, produce relief-like effects, and provide ambient lighting. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate components, thereby managing device complexity while enhancing adaptability
2Ease of operation
If electric servomotors are used to adjust OLED display devices for spatial structures, then the ease of operation and adjustability are improved, but the device complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The flexible OLED display devices are made dynamically adjustable through electric servomotors, allowing users to change the spatial configuration, curvature, and positioning of displays on interior panels. This enables real-time adaptation of the vehicle interior to user preferences, improving ease of operation
Solution Approach 2:
The electric servomotors enable the OLED display devices to self-adjust to desired positions and configurations through automated control systems. The system can automatically position displays and create spatial structures without manual intervention, reducing operational complexity for users
