HUD (Head-Up Display) plays an increasingly important
role in automotive electronics technology. It is a
technology product
that allows drivers to directly see the display content
of the car dashboard while driving. With the increasing
demand for driving safety and the upgrading of
automotive electronics technology, HUD technology is
also constantly evolving and developing.
In the early reflective HUD, information was displayed
through projection on a reflective mirror. In the
Combiner Type HUD, the projection content is mixed with
the outside scenery through a transparent glass. This
projection method can maintain the driver's line of
sight stability, but its display effect may be affected
by external ambient light.
With the appearance of Windshield Type HUD, HUD
technology has undergone a major upgrade. Windshield
Type HUD no longer needs a transparent glass disc to
achieve projection, but directly displays the projection
content on the car's front windshield, which can
achieve more realistic, more three-dimensional, and more
stable projection effects. Windshield Type HUD not only
allows drivers to drive more safely but also enhances
their driving experience.
The latest AR HUD further enhances the performance of
HUD. It can display information on the lanes and road
signs, and provide more driving assistance functions,
such as navigation on the road and warning drivers of
obstacles ahead. AR HUD can significantly improve driver
safety and convenience and is expected to become a
necessary device for safe driving in the future.
Overall, with the continuous advancement of technology,
HUD technology is also constantly evolving and
upgrading. In the future, there will be more HUD
applications that bring people a safer, more convenient,
and comfortable driving experience.
AR HUD technical
problems
Although AR HUD (Augmented Reality Head-Up Display) has
many advantages when applied to cars, there are also
many technical challenges that need to be overcome.
First of all, the projection area of AR HUD is
relatively wider than other types of HUD, so it requires
a large panel, making the volume of AR HUD relatively
large. Not every car model can directly incorporate this
technology, which means that the configuration of car
parts needs to be specially designed to support the
application of AR HUD. This not only increases the
difficulty of development and implementation, but also
increases costs.
In addition, the imaging principle of AR HUD also brings
another technical challenge. If AR HUD is directly
applied on a regular windshield, it may cause the
so-called "ghost image" phenomenon due to
imaging principle problems, which requires the use of a
wedge-shaped glass on the windshield to solve. However,
this further increases the cost, making it more
difficult to introduce AR HUD.
Finally, due to the large projection area required by AR
HUD, the power consumption is also relatively high,
which leads to an increase in the operating temperature
of the product. Such a high temperature can cause
certain harm to the product, which also increases the
problem of heat dissipation. Therefore, the technical
challenges of AR HUD, including the large size,
difficulty of implementation and high cost, as well as
the heat dissipation problem caused by high power
consumption, all need to be solved in order to be more
widely applied in cars.
Flat type AR
HUD(MAVE)
UniMax Electronics is a company that specializes in HUD
series products. Its products have excellent internal light
path design, not only with the advantages of low power
consumption and low heat dissipation, but also successfully
introduced advanced MAVE technology, which allows the
external light path to penetrate, reflect, and form images
in a shutter-like way, thus achieving the projection of wide
images without using large panels. In terms of the optical
guide structure of the external light path, the brightness
efficiency of the hologram technology used by other
competitors is about 1%, while the brightness efficiency of
the MAVE technology used by UniMax is at least 8%, and
even as high as 30%, making it the
only industry leader in the world that can introduce and
mass-produce this technology. This leading technological
advantage has made UniMax Electronics a leading brand in the
HUD product market.

thinner)
With the assistance of MAVE imaging technology,
the volume of AR HUD can
be reduced by at least 30%, making
it easy to embed in the internal space in front of the
dashboard and applicable to most car models on the market.
Additionally, AR HUD does not exhibit ghosting issues when
imaging on regular windshields, eliminating the need for
special wedge-shaped glass and greatly reducing the
cost and difficulty of
implementation. With the
high-efficiency, low-power consumption Picture Generating
Unit (PGU), AR HUD can solve common technical challenges at
once, increasing production efficiency and saving costs.
