Hyundai develops high-tech LED headlights - HD Lightning System. Optics consists of microdiodes and mirrors, due to which headlights can project symbols onto the asphalt or, for example, depict crosswalk.





Hyundai Mobis decided to use the ability of the head optics draw on the pavement in front of the car pictograms for additional warning of drivers about possible danger. TO For example, according to the online data of the navigation system, the headlights will be able to display road works icon in front of the driver - if the route is laid through the place where the road is being repaired, or to inform about the restrictions speed.

Hyundai Mobis admits that optics may partially duplicate the operation of the projection display. However, additional The advantage of their technology is the possibility of communication between driver and pedestrians. For example, car headlights can help pedestrians it is safer to cross the road at night by “drawing” transition for them.

The optics work in real time. Consist headlights HD Lightnint System of 25 thousand diodes with a diameter of 0.04 millimeters - that is thinner than a human hair. The light beam is formed using 1.3 million micromirrors with a diameter of 0.01 mm, and each diode can manage individually.

Hyundai Mobis does not specify on which production car "smart" optics will debut, however, judging by the official report, this will happen in the near future.
