Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to automotive displays. In particular, the present disclosure provides a display assembly for a vehicle, for example, a two-wheeled vehicle.

BACKGROUND
[0002] Display technologies are the most vital components of in-vehicle interactions. The display technologies are majorly used to monitor a plurality of vehicular parameters such as vehicle speed, State of Charge (SOC) of the battery for Electric Vehicles (EVs), different modes of riding and so on. Therefore, there is a need for in-vehicle displays with better visibility, brightness, viewing angle, resolution, sharpness, and reliability together with larger size and free-form that offer unobtrusive visual information during journeys.
[0003] Conventionally, display systems may be implemented as an all-in-one rider information and communication system for vehicles, for example, two-wheelers and powersports vehicles. The conventional display systems may combine a full-colour thin-film-transistor (TFT)-display with a Human-Machine Interface (HMI), to improve readability for a rider. However, the conventional display systems may display only ride critical information and may be complex and non-intuitive for the riders. Further, the conventional display systems may not be cost-effective and may result in disproportionate viewing angles. The utility of the conventional display systems may be restricted due to glass panelling (e.g., ineffective for outdoor use where glass can showcase glares from natural lighting).
[0004] Many techniques have been evolved to obviate the above-mentioned issues, for instance, one such prior art describes an analog-style instrumentation display with colour-changing pointer. An analog-style gauge for displaying a value of a parameter measured or sensed by a remote sensor is provided. The gauge comprises an actuator having a selectively rotatable shaft and a pointer fixedly attached to the actuator shaft and capable of being internally illuminated by light directed into the pointer. A light source is disposed to direct light of at least two colours into the pointer. Control circuitry is operably connected to the actuator, the light source and a remote sensor. The control circuitry rotates the actuator shaft within a range of motion in response to signals received from the remote sensor indicative of changes in the value of the sensed parameter. The control circuitry changes the colour of light directed into the pointer when the pointer reaches a predetermined point within the range of motion, whereby the internal illumination of the pointer will change colour accordingly.
[0005] Another such prior art describes a device for providing backlight of different colours on the liquid crystal display or analog display of the instrument pane) of a motor vehicle comprising electronic control means; at least one sensor for feeding at (east one signal, based on performance information to the input of the electronic control means, at least one RGB LED located on the instrument panel of the vehicle and connected to the output of the electronic control means, the said signal activating the electronic control means to control the current through, and thus trigger, the LED or LEDs singly or jointly, for illuminating the instrument panel with various colours determined by the electronic control means.
[0006] There is, therefore, a need for a completely ride focused, simple, and intuitive display assembly for displaying essential vehicle parameters of the vehicles by overcoming the deficiencies in the prior art(s).

OBJECTS OF THE PRESENT DISCLOSURE
[0007] A general object of the present disclosure is to provide a display assembly for displaying essential vehicular parameters, for example, a saddle type vehicle in a simple and intuitive manner.
[0008] An object of the present disclosure is to provide a display assembly that includes a primary display and a secondary display for improving the awareness of a plurality of vehicular parameters for a rider.
[0009] Another object of the present disclosure is to provide a primary display that includes an array of Red Green Blue (RGB) addressable Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) to display one or more parameters of a vehicle.
[0010] Another object of the present disclosure is to provide a primary display that may be paired up with a pointing mechanism including but not limited to a mechanical pointer, an integrated pointer, or a virtual pointer to indicate one or more parameters of a vehicle to a rider.
[0011] Another object of the present disclosure is to provide a secondary display that includes a plurality of segmented displays to display text and/or numerical based information associated with vehicle attributes.

[0092] The display assembly (150) may also be utilized to indicate various other vehicle attributes. Examples may include, but not limited to:
? When the vehicle is in a standby state, i.e., when the speedometer reads 0 km/h, a bottom half of the primary display (110) may be at 100% brightness indicating a battery SOC.
? During the ride, the bottom half of the primary display (110) may be at 30% brightness to help the rider to keep focus on the road and also provide better readability on speed.
? During vehicle charging, the bottom half of the primary display (110) may read as a simple loading bar that goes from 0% to 100%.
? When a park assist mode is engaged, the top and bottom array of the primary display (110) may flash and a sequence of animation may be displayed to indicate that the vehicle is now in a reverse state.
? When the rider activates a regenerative braking mode, a pre-defined amount of speed being visually displayed may be pushed into the bottom half indicating that the energy recovered is being added back into the vehicle’s battery.
