A automobile that can change colors and exhibits digital capabilities like displaying driving information across the inside of the windshield was unveiled by BMW on Wednesday. Arnold Schwarzenegger, an actor well known for his role as the “Terminator” in the movie “Terminator 2,” attended the presentation of this car, known as the I Vision Dee, at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
BMW debuted a vehicle that could change color, but only from white to black and gray in between, at the same event the previous year. However, the new car’s body can be customized in a wide range of hues, including solid colors, stripes, and checks.
BMW I Vision Dee is now just a notion, but it is intended to influence the styling of the luxury automaker’s upcoming models. For instance, it will be possible as of 2025 to have driving information, such as speed or direction, flash on the windshield.
With technology that “mixes real and virtual worlds,” BMW has also suggested the idea of displaying augmented reality graphics on the windshield and turning it into a full-fledged screen. According to Oliver Zipse, CEO of BMW, the goal is to use software to build “the ultimate companion” that provides a customized driving experience. An acronym for “digital emotional experience” is “Dee.”
Schwarzenegger made light of a prototype that was loaded with cutting-edge equipment.
“I was a little worried because the computer seemed to be the bad guy in most of my movies. Currently, they are allies “he stated.
