The Design

About Smart Display Wheel

Smart Display is a car wheel with an integrated display system. The wheel shows three-dimensional images that can be seen without a screen and without glasses. LED units are built into the wheel and follow its shape. A speed adaptive algorithm senses the rotation of the wheel. Below 20 km/h a flowing light effect is shown, and at 20 km/h and above three-dimensional images are displayed. The surface is finished with piano black paint and a bright coating. The display can carry advertising, danger warnings, vehicle condition information and personal images.
