At CES, BMW today unveiled its new i Vision Dee concept car, an E Ink-clad four-door sedan that can shift colors on demand. Why \u2018Dee,\u2019 you surely ask? It stands for Digital Emotional Experience. We\u2019ll leave it at that, but what matters here is that it\u2019s BMW\u2019s platform for showing off its new head-up display, which is all about giving drivers a choice of how much augmented reality they want to see as they drive.<\/p>\n

Using a five-step selection, drivers can choose if they only want to see driving-related information or if they want to add data from their communications systems, an augmented reality project or a completely virtual experience with blacked-out windows (while driving autonomously).<\/p>\n

Obviously, this is a concept and I don\u2019t think we\u2019ll see people lounge <\/a>and play VR racing games in their car while their autonomous chauffeur handles the mundane task of driving them to their next meeting. But BMW also says that some of this technology will make it into production in its \u2018Neue Klasse\u2019 \u2014 its next generation platform \u2014 launching in 2025. This will include a head-up display that will use the entire width of the windscreen.<\/p>\n

Continental recently showed off its Scenic View HUD<\/a>, which also spans the entire windscreen (though only as a small strip at the bottom of the window), while automotive technology company Harman also today announced its new head-up display hardware, which isn\u2019t quite as futuristic, but also focuses on larger fields of view and includes integrations with driver-assistance systems and real-time 3D object detection.<\/p>\n

And while BMW previously talked about using E Ink as the outer skin of its vehicles, the i Vision Dee now brings this to life with an exterior that\u2019s covered by 240 E Ink segments that can display 32 colors. The car maker actually worked with E Ink to develop the technology that allows it to adapt these display films for curved surfaces. There\u2019s no word yet on when this technology will come to a production model. Earlier this week, VW showed off its light-up paint<\/a>, so it\u2019s probably only a matter of time before we see cars with these chameleon-like capabilities on the street.<\/p>\n

\u201cA BMW lives by its unparalleled digital performance. BMW i Vision Dee is about perfect integration of virtual and physical experiences\u201d said Frank Weber, member of the Board of Management of BMW AG responsible for Development. \u201cWhoever excels at integrating the customer\u2019s everyday digital worlds into the vehicle at all levels will succeed in mastering the future of car-building.\u201d<\/p>\n
