Since Audi has been nicknamed the "light factory", the lighting department has gone for broke and put more effort into headlights. Nowadays, after science fiction movies, games, and PPTs to cheat investment, people no longer lack imagination, or even have too much imagination. Therefore it is difficult to imagine the future well enough to make people exclaim: "Wow! This is awesome!" Instead, it will be a look of disdain: "That's it?" Imagination is imagination, and no matter how beautiful the dream is, it's still an empty dream, and what's of interest now is who turns it into reality.
The face of the long-distance dog is not that I don't want to fight back
The long-distance dog is one of the most annoying groups on the road, and I really don't know how these amblyopia patients can pass the driver's license examination. In the past, when I met this kind of people, I will come and not to be polite, not just than whose light is bright? Come on! But as soon as I got behind the wheel of my Audi, it never happened. Often it's like: shake it, it doesn't matter lah ...... I wish you a speedy recovery from your eye disease and a return to sight. It is not that my temper and mentality have changed for the better, it is entirely because I do not have that ability to fight back ...... Probably many gentlemen are also forced out.
Since Audi started using front-view cameras, the headlight function has been integrated to, among other things, avoid disturbing oncoming drivers. Since that time, high beams have gone around oncoming traffic. Later on, digital technology further upgraded the headlights into a matrix, and the light adjustments became various, not only to take care of the oncoming traffic, but also to avoid all the people on the road, where it should be bright and where it should be dark. It's just a bit helpless when it comes to road hooligans.
Light Avenue, paved by themselves
Civilized use of lights is just one of the many benefits of digital technology, and now this generation? Audi A8 fuses laser-assisted lights with high-definition matrix LED headlamps, a system that relies on the laser-assisted lights to provide a 600-meter illumination distance in front of the car at speeds of less than 70km/h. In the corners also not only through the steering wheel corner to escape the light focus, but also through the navigation information with the light to match the road changes.
Note: Audi DMD technology
As for the latest lighting technology is DMD (Digital Micromirror), which is already installed in the Audi e-tron. At its heart is a chip that inherits 1.3 million micromirrors, and the principle is the same as a micromirror projector. By adjusting the angle of the micromirrors, the light irradiation range can be precisely adjusted, and it is not difficult to spread a "light carpet" in front of the car, and this light carpet will automatically spread according to the vehicle merging action. Imagine wherever you go, this aura is still possible. In addition to spreading the light carpet, this set of lights also has a prompt function, in monitoring the approaching pedestrians will use the light cone to prompt the driver. Now the road really become a stage, passers-by can enjoy the treatment of the spotlight at any time, just don't lead to a group of square dancers to rub the light on the good.
Tail lights of the code hope that the car can read
Many people drive when they want to be able to communicate with other people on the road, perhaps this is the walking and cycling transportation era down to the cultural traditions of the participants in the traffic is closed by the iron box, the distance between people become far away, the mood is easy to cranky up. So the solution was to put some "slogans" on the back of the car to communicate with the car behind and to show what kind of person they are, and there was quite a lot of energy to form a tailgate culture.
Unfortunately, stickers are dead, people are alive, so it caused some embarrassing scenes. Let's say that because of speeding is being behind the police car signaling to pull over, but the car butt sticker: "chasing the wind teenagers, do not serve on it!" Or let's say you're leading the way for your boss, and the car's butt has a sticker that says, "Don't keep following your grandpa, overtake if you can!" Well ......
The light factory understands your embarrassment, starting with a taillight with a signaling function. Further down the line, the Audi Q5 will be the first to use a digital OLED taillight that selects between three signals, and a special signal for Sport mode, so when you put the car into Dynamic mode in the MMI system, the taillights will change to a special graphic. If you think about it, since the taillights can be illuminated in different shapes, it's possible to send a cryptic message.
Written in the end
The above chat is now realized lighting functions, as for the use of lights as a projector on the road or the wall to project the picture of this function Audi is not thought of, even the advertisement film has been shot, from the installation of the car is not far away. In addition, the new flexible light-emitting materials so that the tail lights can achieve a thousand different forms, the lights are now only in a plane light, soon three-dimensional lights will also become a reality. It looks like light manufacturers are going to be running wild on this road to lighting for a while longer.
It's your turn to say: are you guys buying lights or cars?
