TRANSPARENT DISPLAY FOR HOME APPLIANCES

摘要

A home appliance includes a front surface having an appearance. A transparent display is disposed on the front surface, and the display has an appearance that matches the appearance of portions of the front surface of the home appliance that are adjacent to the display. The display may be disposed (e.g., mounted) on the exterior of the front surface such that the front surface is visible through the transparent display. Alternatively, the transparent display may be disposed in or behind an aperture in the front surface of the home appliance. In this instance, a trim plate having an appearance that matches the front surface of the home appliance is mounted behind the transparent display, and the trim plate is visible through the transparent display.
