A heads-up display includes a thin-film transistor (TFT) panel, along with at least one reflective polarizer subassembly. Each of the at least one reflective polarizer subassembly includes a clear substrate having opposing first and second surfaces. The first surface is connected to the TFT panel, and the second surface has a polarizing film laminated thereto. The first surface of the clear substrate is textured, frosted, or the like such that when it is attached to the TFT panel it inhibits bonding between the clear substrate and the TFT panel that would cause optical defects.

Heads up display with textured surface

A head-up-display (HUD) device is disclosed and includes a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) configured to emit light beams in response to a control module of a vehicle generating a safety warning. The control module includes a processor that is configured to execute instructions stored in a nontransitory computer-readable memory. The HUD device also includes a first mirror that includes a transparent portion on a first side of the first mirror and a diffusive portion on a second side of the first mirror, and the light beams are configured to pass through the first mirror. The HUD device also comprises a second mirror that is configured to reflect the light beams toward a first reflective surface, and the second mirror is configured to reflect the light beams subsequent to the light beams passing through the first mirror.
