actuating the at least one first portion of the flexible display and the at least one second portion of the flexible display independently from one another to present respective information; and

presenting a background on the at least one first portion of the flexible display and presenting a foreground on the at least one second portion of the flexible display.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising moving a plurality of first portions of the flexible display behind the at least one second portion of the display.

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising moving a plurality of first portions of the flexible display behind a plurality of second portions of the display.

7. A method for displaying data in at least two spatial planes of a flexible display, the method comprising:

flexing the flexible display such that at least one first portion of the flexible display is positioned in a second plane behind at least one second portion of the flexible display positioned in a first plane, with respect to a viewing perspective of a user; and

presenting, on the at least one first portion of the flexible display, at least data pertaining to depth information of data presented on the at least one second portion of the flexible display,

wherein

the flexible display includes a first end part, a central part, and a second end part,

the at least one first portion of the flexible display includes a first part and a second part,

the first part of the at least one first portion corresponds to the first end part of the flexible display which is moved in a first direction over a substantially semi-circular radius behind the at least one second portion of the display,

the second part of the at least one first portion corresponds to the second end part of the flexible display which is moved in a second direction over a substantially semi-circular radius behind the at least one second portion of the display, and

the at least one second portion of the flexible display corresponds to the central part of the flexible display, the at least one second portion having one part disposed to overlap the first part of the at least one first portion, another part to overlap the second part of the at least one first portion, and a third part not overlapping the at least one first portion in the direction relative to the viewing perspective of the user.

8. A method for displaying data in at least two spatial planes of a flexible display, the method comprising:

flexing the flexible display such that at least one first portion of the flexible display is positioned in a second plane behind at least one second portion of the flexible display positioned in a first plane, with respect to a viewing perspective of a user; and

presenting, on the at least one first portion of the flexible display, at least data pertaining to depth information of data presented on the at least one second portion of the flexible display,

wherein

the at least one first portion of the flexible display is positioned in the second plane such that the at least one first portion of the flexible display partially overlaps the at least one second portion of the flexible display in the direction relative to the viewing perspective of the user,

information with a depth difference is presented in regions in which the at least one first portion of the flexible display partially overlaps the at least one second portion of the flexible display, and

data without depth information are presented in a region of the at least one second portion of the flexible display which does not overlap with the at least one first portion of the flexible display and which is visible to the user.

9. A flexible display, comprising:

at least one first portion; and

at least one second portion,

the flexible display being configured to be flexed such that the at least one first portion of the flexible display is positioned in a second plane behind the at least one second portion of the flexible display positioned in a first plane, with respect to a viewing perspective of a user; and

at least one controller configured to control the at least one first portion of the flexible display to present at least depth information of data presented on the at least one second portion of the flexible display such that the depth information of data presented on the at least one second portion of the flexible display is visible through the at least one second portion of the flexible display from the viewing perspective of the user, and to mirror an orientation of the at least data pertaining to depth information presented on the at least one first portion of the flexible display to allow the user an impression that the at least data pertaining to depth information presented on the at least one first portion of the flexible display matches respective information presented on the at least one second portion of the flexible display.

10. The display as claimed in claim 9 ,

wherein the at least one second portion of the flexible display includes at least one user interface, disposed on the at least one second portion, configured to control at least one function on the at least one first portion of the flexible display.

11. The display as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the at least one second portion of the flexible display is of at least a partially transparent configuration.

12. A vehicle, comprising:

a chassis; and

a flexible display, including:

at least one first portion, and

at least one second portion,

the flexible display being configured to be flexed such that the at least one first portion of the flexible display is positioned in a second plane behind the at least one second portion of the flexible display positioned in a first plane, with respect to a viewing perspective of a user,

the at least one first portion of the flexible display being configured to present at least depth information of information presented on the at least one second portion of the flexible display, and

the at least one first portion of the flexible display and/or the at least one second portion of the flexible display being configured to be moveable along a trajectory prescribed by the vehicle.

13. The vehicle as claimed in claim 12 , further comprising at least one rail,

wherein the at least one rail defines the trajectory prescribed by the vehicle such that the at least one first portion of the flexible display and/or the at least one second portion of the flexible display is moveable along the at least one rail.

14. The vehicle as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the vehicle further comprises a servo drive configured to adjust a distance between the at least one first portion of the flexible display and the at least one second portion of the flexible display automatically and dynamically based on information to be presented on the flexible display.

15. The vehicle as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the flexible display includes an organic light-emitting diode display film.

16. The vehicle as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the at least one second portion is at least partially transparent.

17. The vehicle as claimed in claim 12 , further comprising at least one control button, presented on the at least one second portion of the flexible display, configured to activate at least one function of the vehicle, and

wherein a distance between the at least one first portion of the flexible display and the at least one second portion of the flexible display is dynamically changeable according to the at least one function to be activated using the at least one control button.

18. The vehicle as claimed in claim 12 , wherein in response to the user touching and/or operating a first control button among the at least one control button, the flexible display is configured to move the first control button from being presented on the at least one second portion of the flexible display to being presented on the at least one first portion of the flexible display.
