The dual view AV system is installed in the Grandeur line of automobiles from the Hyundai Motor Company and began mass production in February of 2008. Leveraging Techwell’s TW8810, HD Autonet’s Automotive Infotainment System enables the driver to view a full screen of navigation content and the passenger to view a full screen movie on the same LCD display simultaneously.

In addition to supporting the Sharp dual-view functionality, TW8810 utilizes advanced 3D comb filtering, de-interlacing, scaling and image enhancement algorithms to achieve high video quality critical in Automotive Infotainment display applications. Furthermore, Techwell’s TW8810 has integrated a number of mixed signal analog to digital cores to directly support a number of applications including DVD entertainment, back-up camera, TV, navigation and driver information content within the car.

David Nam, vice president of sales and marketing for Techwell, said: We are very pleased to have been selected by Hyundai Autonet, an automotive electronics specialist and the largest automotive electronics company in Korea, for their dual view AV system installed in Grandeur. This design-win highlights our ability to provide high-performance, scalable LCD IC products to the growing in-car entertainment market. We look forward to continue our close collaboration with Hyundai Autonet.
