SEOUL, South Korea, Nov. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Display, the world's leading innovator of display technologies, announced today that two of its world-first automotive display innovations - Dual View OLED and Under Display Camera-infrared (UDC-IR) OLED - have been recognized with CES 2026 Innovation Awards from the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), the organizer of CES, the world's largest IT and consumer electronics exhibition.
Reaffirming LG Display's leadership in next-generation automotive displays, the company was highlighted by the CTA, which selects the most groundbreaking technologies ahead of each year's CES event. LG Display's Dual View OLED and UDC-IR OLED were honored in the In-Vehicle Entertainment category for delivering differentiated customer value through maximizing space efficiency, superior picture quality, and high standards of safety, reliability, and durability.
Dual View OLED is the world's first solution of its kind that allows a single automotive display to show different content depending on the viewing position - enabling a driver to view navigation information while the front passenger streams movies or other content. When installed between rear passengers, it also lets them watch separate content simultaneously, maximizing the use of limited space and facilitating greater design flexibility.
The optimized pixel structure of Dual View OLED ensures the driver's touch operation of the navigation screen does not interfere with the passenger's entertainment. This all means that passenger-specific, personalized in-vehicle infotainment can be implemented.
By applying a Tandem OLED device structure, this product delivers exceptional picture quality and operates reliably in extreme environments ranging from -40°C to 85°C.
Meanwhile, UDC-IR OLED, which was jointly developed with LG Innotek, is the world's first full-screen automotive display to conceal an in-screen driver-monitoring camera. While increasing the display's transmittance in the camera area, LG Display developed advanced algorithms making the driver-monitoring camera hole invisible, so the camera is imperceptible from the driver's viewpoint. To ensure accurate driver monitoring, the display integrates LG Innotek's high-resolution IR camera and image-enhancement software.
This is seen as a key technology due to global regulations moving toward mandatory driver-monitoring systems for safety. LG Display aims to lead the market by offering displays that integrate cameras seamlessly while maximizing functionality and aesthetics.
LG Display has consistently demonstrated its automotive display technological leadership, having won CES Innovation Awards for its Thin Actuator Sound Solution ahead of CES 2023 and its 57-inch Pillar-to-Pillar LCD, the world's largest single-panel automotive display, in advance of CES 2024.
At CES 2026, LG Display will set up a dedicated booth for next-generation automotive display solutions in the West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC), aiming to share them with top-tier automotive suppliers and equipment manufacturers.
The company also plans to unveil new large-sized OLED products at a customer-exclusive booth located at the Conrad Hotel near the main CES venue.

KANAZAWA, Japan, April 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Kanazawa Biyori, a regional media platform rooted in Hokuriku, is committed to sharing the living culture of this region with a broader audience — not only its celebrated landmarks, but the traditions that continue to define what it means to call this city home. The Hyakumangoku Festival is the beating heart of Kanazawa: magnificent, historic, and unmistakably alive.
The Procession That Defines a City
The Hyakumangoku Festival is held each June in commemoration of Lord Maeda Toshiie's triumphant entry into Kanazawa Castle on June 14, 1583 — the moment that laid the foundation of the Kaga Domain and shaped the city as we know it today. Now in its 75th edition, the festival runs from Friday, June 5 to Sunday, June 7, 2026, transforming the center of Kanazawa into a stage for one of Japan's most spectacular civic celebrations.
At its heart is the Hyakumangoku Gyōretsu — a procession of breathtaking scale and pageantry that departs from the iconic Tsuzumimon Gate at Kanazawa Station and winds its way through the city to Kanazawa Castle Park. On Saturday, June 6, from 2:00 to 6:00 p.m., the streets of Kanazawa belong entirely to history brought to life.
This Year's Highlight: Where Living Tradition Meets National Drama
The defining draw of this year's festival is a convergence that happens once in a generation. Lord Maeda Toshiie will be portrayed by Daito Shunsuke, and his consort Omatsu-no-Kata by Sugai Yuka — both currently starring as Toshiie and Matsu in Toyotomi Kyodai!, the 2026 NHK Taiga Drama.
For those unfamiliar with the format: the NHK Taiga Drama is Japan's most prestigious historical drama series, broadcast annually by the national public broadcaster since 1963. In Japan, historical figures are often remembered — and reimagined — through the lens of whoever portrayed them in a given year's Taiga. To see these actors step from the screen into the streets of Kanazawa, embodying the very figures who built this city, is an experience with few parallels.
A Procession of Power and Craft
The Gyōretsu is more than a parade — it is a living tableau of Kaga culture in motion. Music corps perform at three points along the route, filling the streets with sound and energy. The Kaga Tobi — the storied firefighters of the Edo-period domain — take to the street four times, their acrobatic ladder performances drawing gasps from the crowd. The thunderous Kaga Shishi lion dance, a designated cultural property of Kanazawa, moves through the procession with an energy that is as ancient as it is electric.
This year, the procession once again incorporates the Kiriko float parade from Noto — a powerful gesture of solidarity with the region's ongoing recovery from the 2024 earthquake. The sight of Noto's lantern floats moving through the streets of Kanazawa carries a meaning that no words can fully capture.
Three Days of Living Culture
The festival extends well beyond the Gyōretsu. Across three days, a series of events deeply rooted in Kanazawa's cultural identity are planned. The Hyakumangoku Takigi Nō is set to bring Noh theater to life under the open sky, performed by firelight in the grounds of Kanazawa Castle Park — a hauntingly beautiful tradition. The Hyakumangoku Chakai tea ceremony will offer visitors a window into the refined world of Kaga's tea culture. And as night falls, the Hyakumangoku Odori Nagashi fills the streets with dance, open to all — no experience, no affiliation required.
An Invitation
Kanazawa Biyori shares this festival not simply as a seasonal event, but as a window into the soul of this city — a place where history is not preserved behind glass, but performed, danced, and lived each June. Whether you come to watch or to join, the Hyakumangoku Festival is Kanazawa at its fullest.
