Display Innovation for EV-Charging
TRIA’s ecosystem includes all major Tier 1 display manufacturers.
Custom displays are the new standard—most AvE projects require a full-stack approach, integrating display, touch, and an application-specific cover lens (glass) in a bonded solution.
With engineering and R&D in Germany and partnerships with leading touch, touch driver providers, and second-tier display integrators, we deliver tailored solutions for your application.
Standardized display touch platforms like SimpleFlex ensure faster time-to-market.
HMI for EV Charging
Customer’s Requirements
Our customer needed a sunlight-readable, high-brightness display with impact protection and an IP rating for an outdoor EV charger. The display had to support both advertising and charge status updates. Additionally, they required a custom carrier board with I/O flexibility and multiple CPU options.
Our Solution
Design and manufacturing of a custom HMI system, including:
- ARM-based custom carrier board with custom BIOS and OS
- 31.5″ high-brightness display with a custom cover lens (IP and IK rated)
- Custom tooling for cover lens and mounting tailored to the customer’s design
The Result
At TRIA, complex CPU cores, display, and system solutions are in our DNA. Leveraging our proven building blocks, we met the customer’s demanding requirements through detailed requirements management and close collaboration—delivering a fully optimized solution.
