Abstract
The present invention relates to a steering wheel, and more particularly, to a steering wheel for a vehicle (vehicle steering wheel for game), having a display device for providing various pieces of vehicle information (vehicle driving record information, engine rotation speed information, vehicle state information, static warning information and dynamic warning information) related to a driving state and operation of each device. The present invention provides a steering wheel having a rim or a hub, on the upper end of which a display device for displaying various pieces of vehicle information is mounted, to make it unnecessary to install a separate gauge board on a dashboard of the vehicle, thereby reducing production costs and weights of a vehicle. Moreover, the present invention can fundamentally prevent a glare phenomenon, which may be generated by the gauge board of the vehicle installed on a conventional dashboard, and can implement a vehicle with low power consumption due to the non-installation of the gauge board. Therefore, the present invention is suitable for an electric vehicle and a hybrid vehicle.
