For example, the navigation terminal 200 includes a GPS module 20 and a navigation module. 21, a transparent flexible display (TFD) module 22, a transparent flexible display module size detector 23, CPI 24, OSD generator 25, storage 26, keypad 27, etc. Consist of included.

In the CPI 24, for example, when the vehicle driver selects and inputs an arbitrary destination through the keypad 27, the CPS module 20 and the navigation module 21 control the operation. As a result, a series of navigation operations for searching for a movement path or the like from the current position of the vehicle to any one destination is performed.

In addition, the transparent flexible display module size detection unit 23 detects the size of the transparent flexible display module 22 attached to the windshield of the vehicle, for example, the display start point. Coordinate values (X 0 , Y 0 ) and coordinate values (X m , Y n ) of the display end point are detected to detect the actual display size of the transparent flexible display module 22.

Meanwhile, in the CPI 24, guide information excluding a map image among the searched navigation information according to the size of the transparent flexible display module 22 detected as described above, for example, a moving direction, a distance, and a speed of the vehicle. Various guide information such as a time, a speech bubble for guiding a specific place, and the like are selected and distributed to be displayed at a part of the transparent flexible display module.

Accordingly, the vehicle driver may check the guide information distributed and displayed at a part of the transparent flexible display module while looking at the road that is actually driving, which will be described in detail as follows.
