Display for the Aerofoils Audi e-tron eFoil: An overview for high flyers

Like the Audi e-tron eFoil from Aerofoils, its customized 2.2-inch display is also unique. Built for demanding real-world conditions, the display must be both rugged and premium, ensuring riders can clearly read live performance data even during intense action on the water. It must also withstand extreme environmental influences such as wind, water and UV radiation.

That is why we developed a display specially for Aerofoils that meets precisely these complex requirements.

The customized display solution for Aerofoils

The display is meant to withstand demanding operating conditions. For this purpose, our experts developed a custom 2.2-inch TFT display with 240×320 (QVGA) resolution and Blanview® technology. This technology offers excellent visibility, even in bright sunlight, while maintaining low power consumption.

The display is further equipped with a waterproof construction rated IP67/IP68 and specially hardened glass with UV-resistant printing, making it perfectly suited for harsh outdoor environments. Its robust mechanical layer structure provides additional protection against shocks and impacts. 

After an intensive development phase of approximately 1.5 years, including extensive testing and validation, the display successfully entered mass production.

In challenging outdoor environment, conventional display solutions are often not enough. The same applied to the specific requirements for the Audi e-tron eFoil remote control. Aerofoils was looking for a partner capable of guiding the project from concept to production-ready display. Thanks to our more than 20 years of experience in the development of customized displays, we have built extensive expertise. This also convinced Aerofoils. We are proud of this collaboration and the successful result we achieved together.

Blanview® Technology for superior readability

The 2.2-inch TFT display with QVGA resolution (240×320) is based on Blanview® technology, delivering outstanding readability in both challenging lighting conditions and low power consumption. Optical interference is minimized by this technology and good legibility is made possible, especially in direct sunlight and over reflective water surfaces.

Built for action

The display is optimally equipped for outdoor use through UV-stable printing and a waterproof construction rated to IP67/68. Specially hardened cover glass and a carefully engineered mechanical design provide exceptional resistance to shocks and impacts.

Market expertise is crucial

Although Aerofoils receives a single part number from DMB Technics, the display itself consists of a complex bill of materials supported by an extensive global supply chain. Managing this complexity requires deep market knowledge and close collaboration with trusted manufacturing partners throughout Asia.

Experience makes the difference

Combined with years of experience in long-term forecasting and supply chain management, DMB Technics can secure reliable availability and continuity throughout the entire product lifecycle.
