Abstract: A vehicle instrument panel assembly (10) configured to determine an orientation angle (32) of a stepper motor (12) actuated pointer (14, 114) of the assembly (10). The assembly (10) includes a pointer (14, 114), a stepper motor (12), a magnet (24), and a sensor (34). The pointer (14, 114) is movable about an axis (16, 116) to point to indicia on a display surface of the assembly (10). The stepper motor (12) is coupled to the pointer (14, 114) via a reduction gear arrangement (20). The magnet (24) is fixedly coupled to the pointer (14, 114) such that a magnetic field direction (30) generated by the magnet (24) corresponds to an angle (32) of the pointer (14, 114). The sensor (34) is configured to determine the magnetic field direction (30) of the magnet (24) and output a signal indicative of the angle (32) of the pointer (14, 114).

Abstract: A vehicle (10) instrument panel assembly (12) that includes a display surface (20) and a pointer (30) equipped with an electro-optical cell (34). The display surface (20) is equipped with a graphical indicator (24). The graphical indicator (24) is selectively operable to an off-state and an illuminated-state. The pointer (30) is operable to move about an axis to point to indicia (22) on the display surface (20). The pointer (30) is operable to a position that obstructs the graphical indictor from view. The electro-optical cell (34) is operable to a transparent-state and located on the pointer (30) to overlay the graphical indicator (24) when the pointer (30) is at the position that obstructs the graphical indictor from view. The cell is operated to the transparent-state when the graphical indicator (24) is operated to the illuminated-state.
