What Is a Virtual Dashboard?

Virtual dashboards are digital instrument panels substituting a flat or curved panel screen for the cluster of analog and digital gauges. Virtual dashboards can deliver a broader range of information to the driver, such as vehicle diagnostics, advanced driver assistance services (ADAS), and alternative camera views that can improve a driver’s road awareness.

Virtual dashboards are sometimes called “digital cockpits” or “virtual cockpits.” See also night vision, odometer, and traffic sign recognition.
