LG Display showcases 1st autonomous concept car with futuristic displays

Las Vegas : It might not be so far in the future that you will be able to watch a movie on a rollable screen that is automatically extended downwards or check traffic or weather conditions on a transparent screen on a window while on the go.
South Korean panel maker LG Display Co showed off futuristic panels at CES 2023, including a clear-as-glass OLED screen, which it said could be commercialised in just a few years.
One of the industry’s leading innovators, LG Display, set up a booth specialised in cutting-edge automotive panels for the first time at the world’s biggest tech show that kicked off earlier in the day in Las Vegas, reports Yonhap news agency.
The company said a huge growth potential lies in the global automotive panel business, as demand has risen sharply in recent years due to the popularity of electric vehicles and better connectivity and electronics in vehicles.

Its plastic OLED reduces power consumption and weight, the company said, making it a perfect component for electric vehicles.
