content: Everything is possible, but with so little information it is very difficult to tell you how.Which thermal imaging camera are you using, and is there a model number on the display from the VW radio you have.Is the idea to just show the output of the camera on the LCD or does the radio still have to work in combination with the image of the camera.To convert a ntsc signal to something digital a converter board can be used. Something like thishttps://www.globalsources.com/LCD-controller/LCD-Controller-Board-1181408146p.htmor thishttps://reaper88.en.made-in-china.com/product/jJRptQUxmIVe/China-PAL-NTSC-Universal-LCD-Controller-Board-40pin-LCD-Drive-Boards-4-3-Inch-TFT-LCD-Display-with-Driver-Board-.htmlBut bottom line, more information is needed to answer your question.

content: The display is a TIANMA TM080RDHP06, but as it is often difficult with LCD panels, no datasheet to be found quickly.The camera is not my cup of thee, and I think you would do best to move your post to the thermal camera section to get better response. To do this you can use the button at the bottom of the page. See attached picture.

content: I assume you have tested it with an NTSC device to seeif the camera itself works? You could also count thepins on the connector and do a web search for e.g.:XX pin LCD connectorThis may lead you to the correct signal and connectortype.

content: The camera ribbon connector has a lot of pins. I thought NTSC signal only needs 2 wires. May be it's analog VGA signal?

content: And there is a possibility to bypass the main board of the screen and connect the NTSC signal to the tape for the output sent by the camera to an external device Because the screen in the camera is also functional and maybe I can use it? This motherboard is what it's all about

content: The Bullard camera is NTSC onlyThe Bullard display is driven from the PCB in the camera with clocks for 320x240, and specific biases for the LCD (probably set by those pots).The VW display is probably close to a PC driving a screen digitally.It will probably be a lot more than 320x240 resolution, it will need different timings and different power supplies.My view is that unless the VW unit has an analogue reversing camera input to forget it.Bill
