Lexus Ux Concept Introduces Hologram-Style Displays – Sep 24, 2016– Nagoya, Japan (Techreleased) – The Lexus UX Concept, making its world debut at the 2016 Paris Motor Show, presents a vision for imaginative, forward-thinking technologies that will provide vehicle occupants with a fully immersive experience.

The radical interior of the Lexus UX Concept reveals floating hologram-style displays for the driver’s instrument binnacle and centre console, alongside the latest advances in vehicle electrical technologies.

A vision for a compact Lexus SUV of the future, the UX Concept represents a new step in the company’s design journey and a redefinition of the driving experience.

All on-board human-machine interface technology has been designed to offer an innovative, three-dimensional driver experience to progressive customers who live and work in an ever-connected environment.

The driver’s instrument binnacle houses a transparent globe, floating in the manner of a hologram, in which a combination of analogue and digital information expresses a functional yet unexpected user interface.

The centre console features a prominent, faceted crystal structure within which a hologram-style display of the air-conditioning and infotainment systems is clearly visible to both driver and front passenger.

The latest advanced in-vehicle electrical technologies are also on display in the new UX Concept. It features electro-chromatic windows while door mirrors are replaced by e-mirror camera housings that are far slimmer than conventional mirror assemblies. All switchgear is electrostatic and displayed under transparent covers.

Finally, the fin motif used on the A-pillar lining is repeated on the dashboard to provide an advanced audio experience for the new-generation Lexus customer – a demountable sound bar built into the passenger side of the dashboard.
