There is a new development by Mercedes-Benz engineers – a giant curved display panel that spans almost the entire width of the passenger compartment from the left pillar to the right one, helping the driver to control the car and replacing the traditional panel board. In addition, the MBUX Hyperscreen panel, which is about 140 cm long, is equipped with artificial intelligence, constantly learning and improving in the process of communication with the driver and the front-seat passenger.
MBUX Hyperscreen panel is a further development of the MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) concept, currently available in 1.8 million Mercedes A-Class vehicles. It will be optionally available in the company’s future all-electric EQS sedans. The panel will integrate functions that will replace the traditional dashboard, navigation equipment, multimedia car devices and other systems.
The MBUX Hyperscreen has an OLED display protected by Gorilla Glass. OLED technology guarantees high image brightness, controlled by a special camera and a light sensor. The hardware part of the MBUX Hyperscreen complex runs on a car computer equipped with an 8-core processor with 24 GB of RAM. There are 12 actuator mechanisms under the touchscreen that provide tactile feedback during operation. If you touch certain points with your finger, they cause a tangible vibration of the surface in this place.
According to Sajjad Khan, Board Member and CTO of Mercedes-Benz AG, the MBUX Hyperscreen is “both the brain and the nervous system of the car”, providing a new approach to driving and entertainment content while traveling.
