Further, the present invention may be used with a rearview packaging assembly such as that described in U.S. Patent Nos. 8,264,761; 8,646,924; and 8,643,931; U.S. Patent Application Publication Nos.

- a display mirror assembly according to the present disclosure has several advantages.
- the display module is supported by the front shield and rear shield, and does not require a separate support or carrier plate. Omission of a carrier plate, and inclusion of retaining features in the front shield a nd rear shield, permits the display mirror assembly to be lighter, involve less parts for manufacturing, and to have a display which is viewable over a larger percentage of the total viewing area of the display mirror assembly.
- a design approach used herein for selecting an appropriate display 22 first focuses on a resolution for the display 22 such that individual pixels a re not visible at a typical target viewing distance.
- a typical viewing distance for a vehicle display mirror 10 is about 500 mm, as described below.
- an average viewer should preferably not be able to distinguish the lines at the target viewing distance.
- Visual acuity of a person with about 20/20 vision can be considered to be about one arcmin or about l/60 h of a degree.
- Visual acuity is typically evaluated by displaying a horizontal grating of alternating black and white lines on an electronic display at a given distance.
- a person with about 20/20 vision is typically able to see up to about 60 features or about 30 black/white alternating line pairs within a visual angle of one degree.
- the line density or pixel density expressed as pixels-per-inch (PPI) can be a design parameter.
- the distance between the eyes of a vehicle occupant (e.g., a driver) and an approximate center of the display can be the distance of view.
- the distance of view can be between approximately 400 mm and 1000 mm depending upon several factors, including, but not limited to, an interior design of the vehicle.
- the PPI can be based on a distance of view of less than approximately 600 mm or less than approximately 500 mm.
- the PPI can be about 175 PPI or a pixel pitch of 0.1454 mm.
- the display module 18 can include various types of displays 22, including, but not limited to a liquid crystal display (LCD).
- LCDs can be used, including, but not limited to, twisted nematic (TN), in-plane switching (IPS), fringe field switching (FFS), vertically aligned (VA), etc.
- TN twisted nematic
- IPS in-plane switching
- FFS fringe field switching
- VA vertically aligned
- Different display technologies typically have different operating characteristics, such as, but not limited to, percentage of backlight transmission and contrast over angle.
- the display mirror assembly 10 can be used as a full display mirror in a vehicle to be operational substantially continuously while driving, as opposed to back-up display systems that are used only during certain times of vehicle operation (i.e., when the vehicle is in reverse gear).
- Mirror-borne back-up monitors that use light emitting diode (LED) backlights for an LCD typically exhibit higher "start-up" luminance compared to "steady state” luminance, which can be because the efficiency of the LED backlights can be reduced over time as a function of heat.
- LED light emitting diode
- the display mirror assembly 10 being a full mirror display system, should be substantially brighter than a back-up monitor display so that the steady state luminance of the display mirror assembly 10 can be approximately equal to a start-up luminance of the back-up monitor system.
- the display mirror assembly 10 can be configured to have a steady state luminance of about 1500 cd/m 2 , preferably 2000 cd/m 2 at room temperature, according to one embodiment.
- the display mirror assembly 10 has an increase in steady state luminance of approximately 50% over prior art mirror-borne back-up monitor steady state performance.
- the display module 18 can be configured to have an acceptable luminance transmission percentage for the target luminance.
- Luminance transmission is a function of aperture ratio. As the pixel density increases, the aperture ratio decreases because the thin film transistor (TFT) and associated drive connections at each pixel are approximately the same size regardless of resolution. Thus, there is a design tradeoff between luminance and resolution.
- TFT thin film transistor
- the display 22 For a target luminance of at least 2000 cd/m 2 from a display mirror assembly 10 including an electrochromic element 12 having a transmission of about 40%, the display 22 would have a video display output of at least 5000 cd/m 2 . For a pitch of less than about 0.15 mm, a twisted nematic (TN) LCD would have a transmission of about 3%.
- TN twisted nematic
- an LED backlight having a steady state output of at least about 166,667 cd/m 2 would be required to achieve a target steady state luminance of about 2000 cd/m 2 from a display mirror assembly 10.
- an FFS LCD of the same pixel pitch would have a transmission of about 6% and require an LED backlight having a steady state output of at least about 83,333 cd/m 2 to achieve a target steady state luminance of 2000 cd/m 2 .
- the difference in aperature ratio between the FFS LCD and the TN LCD can result from the clear pixel electrode of the FFS in comparison to the opaque pixel electrode of the TN LCD. Additionally, the TN LCD may require a storage capacitor at each pixel which can further reduce the aperture ratio compared to the FFS LCD.
- the TN LCD is a lower cost technology compared to the FFS LCD, when considering an LCD of equal size and complexity.
- the added cost of the brighter LED backlight outweighs any cost advantage the TN LCD might have.
- a display 22 should be selected that has at least 5% transmission, preferably at least 6% transmission.
- Display 22 may be constructed using an FFS LCD, which has a transmission of 6%.
- the display 22 can have a resolution of about 1280 x 240, a pixel pitch of less than about 0.15 mm, and be an IPS, FFS, or VA type LCD.
- IPS, FFS, and VA type LCDs are also advantageous over TN LCDs in that they have a wider viewing angle, which is significant for a display mirror assembly 10, where the angle of view from the driver's eye position to the outermost edge of the display 22 could be as much as 30 degrees.
- the display 22 can have a trapezoidal shape.
- the display 22 can have other shapes, such as, but not limited to, square, rectangular, symmetrical, nonsymmetrical, or contoured.
- the pixel layout can affect performance in an embodiment have a non-rectangular display.
- Edge pixels 195 with a slant (FIG. 7B) can have inconsistent color due to primary mixing, which can have a reduced performance as compared to edge pixels 197 that do not slant (FIG. 7A).
- a small pixel pitch and/or masking with a film or metal layer can result in de-emphasizing a jagged edge.
- FIG. 8 shows a partial cross- sectional view of an end portion of an LCD element 22 according to an embodiment of the invention.
- LCD element 22 includes a pair of glass substrates 201 and 203 sealed together in spaced relation with a seal 205 near edge 50 to define a chamber in which a liquid crystal material 207 is provided.
- Polarizers 209 and 211 are provided on the outer surfaces of substrates 201 and 203.
- a charge build-up may form on an interior surface of one of the substrates (such as substrate 201).
- electrically conductive layer 217 such as a layer of indium tin oxide (ITO) may be provided on an outer surface of the substrate 201 on which the charge builds up near front surface 78 of display element 22. Electrically conductive layer 217 may be electrically connected to ground via an electrically conductive connection.
- the electrically conductive connection can have a resistance of approximately 10 to 20 ohms. Examples of the electrically conductive connections are, but a re not limited to, conductive foam, tape, FPC direct connection, the like, or a combination thereof. In the example shown in FIG. 8, an electrically conductive foam pad 219 coupled to one of the metal shields 14 or 16 serves as the electrically conductive connection.
- the display mirror assembly 10 can include three source drivers 225a, 225b, and
- display mirror assembly 10 can include four source drivers 225a, 225b, 225c, and 225d as illustrated in FIG. 9B.
- the embodiment of FIG. 9B can have a reduced chip ledge as compared to the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 9A.
- the chip ledge can be reduced by about 3 mm in FIG. 9B compared to FIG. 9A.
- a TFT thin film transistor
- a semiconductor material such as, but not limited to, amorphous silicon, low temperature polysilicon (LTPS), or metal oxide (such as indium- gallium-oxide).
- amorphous silicon TFT is the lowest cost TFT technology, but amorphous silicon TFT can be more sensitive to high intensity backlights (>100,000 cd/m 2 ), due to leakage currents, resulting in loss of contrast.
- the LTPS TFT can be used when, but not limited to, the display module 18 has a series of circuits built into glass, the display module 18 is a contoured shape, or a combination thereof.
- the LTPS can increase luminance transmission because the increased electron mobility of LTPS allows for a smaller TFT at each pixel. Additionally or alternatively, an LTPS TFT can be less sensitive to high intensity backlights because its smaller size makes it easier to shield with opaque metal layers.
- embodiments of the invention described herein may be comprised of one or more conventional processors and unique stored program instructions that control one or more processors to implement, in conjunction with certain non-processor circuits, some, most, or all of the functions of a display mirror assembly 10, as described herein.
- the non-processor circuits may include, but are not limited to signal drivers, clock circuits, power source circuits, and/or user input devices.
- these functions may be interpreted as steps of a method used in using or constructing a classification system.
- some or all functions could be implemented by a state machine that has no stored program instructions, or in one or more application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), in which each function or some combinations of certain of the functions are implemented as custom logic.
- ASICs application specific integrated circuits
- the term "coupled” in all of its forms, couple, coupling, coupled, etc. generally means the joining of two components (electrical or mechanical) directly or indirectly to one another. Such joining may be stationa ry in nature or movable in nature. Such joining may be achieved with the two components (electrical or mechanical) and any additional intermediate members being integrally formed as a single unitary body with one another or with the two components. Such joining may be permanent in nature or may be removable or releasable in nature unless otherwise stated.
- elements shown as integrally formed may be constructed of multiple parts or elements shown as multiple parts may be integrally formed, the operation of the interfaces may be reversed or otherwise varied, the length or width of the structures and/or members or connector or other elements of the system may be varied, the nature or number of adjustment positions provided between the elements may be varied.
- the elements and/or assemblies of the system may be constructed from any of a wide variety of materia ls that provide sufficient strength or durability, in any of a wide variety of colors, textures, and combinations. Accordingly, all such modifications are intended to be included within the scope of the present innovations. Other substitutions, modifications, cha nges, and omissions may be made in the design, operating conditions, and arrangement of the desired and other exemplary embodiments without departing from the spirit of the present innovations.
