    Abstract: Embodiments of a deadfront configured to hide a display when the display is not active are provided. The deadfront includes a substrate having a first major surface and a second major surface. The second major surface is opposite the first major surface. The deadfront also includes a neutral density filter disposed on the second major surface of the transparent substrate and an ink layer disposed on the neutral density filter. The deadfront defines at least one display region in which the deadfront transmits at least 60% of incident light and at least one non-display region in which the deadfront transmits at most 5% of incident light. A contrast sensitivity between each of the at least one display region and each of the at least one non-display region is at least 15 when the display is not active.

    Abstract: Described herein are deadfront assemblies that are configured to exhibit variable transmission and reflection performance attributes. The deadfront assemblies described herein comprise a first ink layer, an intermediate layer, and a second ink layer. The intermediate layer is disposed between the first and second ink layers and is configured to reflect light that is transmitted through the first ink layer back through the first ink layer so that one or more colors of the ink in the first ink layer is visible in the reflected light. The second ink layer is configured to counteract deviations in optical transmission caused by the first ink layer so that light transmitted through the deadfront assembly is not perceptively altered in color. Overlapping regions of the first and second ink layers comprise inverse appearance attributes so that light output from a light source and transmitted through the deadfront assembly has a desired appearance.

    Abstract: A glass article comprises a glass substrate having a first major surface and a second major surface, the second major surface being opposite the first major surface. An opaque layer is disposed on the second major surface. The opaque layer comprises an optical density of greater than 3.0 such that portions of the glass substrate covered by the opaque layer comprise an average optical transmission of less than or equal to 0.5% for light from 400 nm to 700 nm. Within a sensor region of the glass article, the opaque layer comprises a plurality of ablated portion such that an average optical transmission of the glass article within the sensor region is greater than or equal 1.0% for the light from 400 nm to 700 nm as a result of the plurality of ablated portions.
