CES2022: AGC brings automotive AR windshield display

EyeLights and AGC have teamed up to bring industrial ar capabilities to the series cars for a safer and better in-car experience. The combination of windshield and display technology brings a number of benefits, including providing the largest virtual screen size (550 inches) and displaying a projection distance of 50 meters away from the driver.

AGC automotive technology transforms the windshield into a virtual screen that can be seen even when wearing sunglasses Powered by the EyeLights operating system, enabling enhanced driving through the use of computer vision and artificial intelligence capabilities.

Traditional displays can be distracting. The augmented reality windshield adds active safety by displaying information where it should appear.

Since all the information is in view – the technology allows you to focus on the road: "We believe that the augmented reality windshield will be the next human-machine interface, and in the future, the screen will completely disappear from the dashboard." The augmented reality windshield interface brings a transparent, broader and safer interface that unlocks the full potential of augmented reality into the car," said Romain DUFLOT, CEO of EyeLights.

"Many players struggle to bring sophisticated new HUD(*) technology to the windshield, however, they tend to overlook the numerous strict optical restrictions on the windshield. AGC and EyeLights share a common vision: bringing practical disruptive technology to life, and we are now ready to mass-produce and improve the driving experience," said Patrick Ayoub, Head of Automotive Sensors and Vision at AGC's R&D Division.
