A display device with a liquid crystal display and a method for protecting the liquid crystal display are provided. The display device includes a liquid crystal display for displaying an image, a sensor system for detecting the illuminance of an incident optical radiation and for determining the current position of the Sun relative to the liquid crystal display, an adjustable shading device for protecting the liquid crystal display from the incident optical radiation, and a control unit. The control unit checks if the illuminance detected by the sensor system exceeds a predefined threshold value and if the current position of the Sun is in a predefined angle range, and controls the shading device according to a result of the check such that the shading device interrupts a beam path of a part of the optical radiation incident on the liquid crystal display.

Display device having a liquid crystal display and method for protecting a liquid crystal display

A display with an electro-optical display module has a display area, with a light-transmissive cover arranged between the display area and a possible observer of the display area. The light-transmissive cover is bonded onto the display area by an adhesive, and provision is made for the surface of the light-transmission cover to be configured in a three-dimensional fashion.

Display with an electro-optical display module

A motor vehicle display with a first indicator and a first dial in which an average fuel consumption is indicated on the first dial by the first indicator. There is a second dial and the first indicator, in conjunction with the second dial, indicates a distance which can still be covered with the amount in the vehicle tank, wherein the second dial is followed automatically.

Motor vehicle display

A combination instrument has a disk that is transparent for light in the visible range and that has a dial region and an indicator region. It further has a dial imprint, which is applied to the back of the transparent disk in the dial region. In addition, a polarizing filter disk is provided, which is disposed on the back of the transparent disk aligned with the indicator region and comprises a circular polarizing filter. An optical indicator unit is provided, which is disposed in alignment with the indicator region on the back of the transparent disk and the polarizing filter disk.
