APPLICATIONS · TRANSPORTATION
Built to be read in motion.
Fleet telematics, marine instruments, transit terminals, and EV chargers. Legible from sunrise to headlight, through vibration, thermal shock, and round-the-clock duty.
The engineering challenge
What transportation deployments actually break on.
Transportation displays get read at speed, in motion, through every lighting condition a shift can produce.
Continuous vibration
Rolling stock, marine hulls, and truck cabs deliver sustained vibration. Our stack is bonded and dampened to take it.
Sunrise-to-headlight legibility
Operators cannot stop to dim a screen. Transflective architecture holds contrast constant from midday sun to full darkness.
Cold-start & solar-load swings
−30°C at dawn. +75°C behind glass at noon. Our qualified operating envelope covers the full band.
Vehicle-bus power quality
12V / 24V / 48V rails, transients, load-dump events, reverse-polarity risk. Our reference driver boards absorb all of it.
Fit criteria
Verification matrix — transportation class.
Transportation programs typically need every one of these benchmarks at once. That is exactly what transflective is built for.
Recommended product paths
Three ways in, for transportation.
Transport RTS SKUs
Stocked transflective and reflective panels, built for fleet and marine integrators.
- 3.5″ – 10.1″ stocked
- Vibration-qualified
- 12/24V driver ready
Transflective series
Full-color transflective stacks for round-the-clock cockpit and dashboard hardware.
- Hybrid optics
- Wide temp band
- Sunlight + night modes
Custom transport
Cockpit-integrated modules with custom bezels, bonded cover glass, and driver co-design.
- Bonded assemblies
- Custom driver PCB
- Automotive PPAP
Technology bridge
RLCD or TLCD — for transportation.
One architecture, two families. Match the lighting profile of your deployment to the right one.
Full tradeoff matrixRLCD · transportation fit
Reflective LCD
Full-color reflective panels for cost-sensitive outdoor nodes. Parking meters, transit signage, and fleet trackers where sunlight readability and battery life come first.
TLCD · transportation fit
Transflective LCD
Transflective is the default for cockpit, marine, and EV-charger interfaces. Every shift moves from direct sun to full darkness. No dimming input required.
