K&D Technology Visits Dongfeng R&D Institute: Co-Creating the Future of Smart Cockpit Display Technology

October 16, 2025, Shenzhen/Wuhan — Shenzhen K&D Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "K&D Technology") was invited today to visit the headquarters of Dongfeng R&D Institute to participate in the "Automotive Intelligent Forward-Looking Technology Exhibition and Exchange Conference." During the event, K&D Technology not only delivered a keynote speech titled "Towards Intelligent Mobility: Redefining the New In-Car Display Experience" but also showcased products in the exhibition area, including an extreme narrow-bezel dual-screen, medium-free air imaging display, a 21.5-inch ceiling-mounted screen, a hidden wood-grain display, and self-developed dual-screen coated cover glass. This facilitated in-depth technical exchanges with the smart cockpit expert team from Dongfeng R&D Institute.

Technical Speech: Focusing on Smart Cockpit Display Solutions

As automobiles evolve into human-centric "third living spaces," the interaction between the vehicle and the driver is gradually expanding to include intelligent driving and entertainment information. The intelligent upgrade of the cockpit is driving screen innovation. K&D Technology, with high-brightness Mini-LED technology at its core, has developed various new display technology applications such as HUD PGU, air imaging, light field displays, and wood-grain displays.

In the exhibition area, three star products became the focus:

• Air Imaging: Utilizing the principle of light field reconstruction to achieve imaging in free space. While preserving the driver's field of view, it can dynamically display navigation and entertainment information, enabling a "virtual-real fusion" interactive experience through gestures and voice. It features "non-medium," "contactless," "fingerprint-resistant," "infection-resistant," and "anti-static" characteristics, making it suitable for applications in information security, medical displays, public facilities, and smart automotive fields.

• Wood-Grain Display: Custom-developed for high-end models, it integrates luxurious interior design, transforming wood-grain accents from purely decorative elements into a combination of decoration plus intelligent display and control. When off, it presents a wood-grain interior effect; when touched, it reveals control and display functions. Utilizing local dimming technology, it achieves a million-to-one contrast ratio, solving the backlight bleeding issue of traditional displays.

• Extreme Narrow Bezel Dual-Screen: Specifically designed for smart cockpit instrument clusters and central control systems, it utilizes ultra-thin displays (thickness ≤5mm). Through integrated die-cast lower frame integration with Tier-1 customer rear housings, it achieves a 40% reduction in bezel width and a 35% improvement in space utilization. This solution combines aesthetics and functionality, providing an industry-leading narrow bezel solution for automotive displays.

This technical exchange laid a solid foundation for cooperation between K&D Technology and Dongfeng R&D Institute. In the future, both parties will collaborate around smart cockpit display technologies to jointly promote the industrial development of automotive display technology.
