Recognises people as well (second half of vid @ 1:50)

That is incredible technology! :jaw:

I am in full support of this. I always complain that Xenon HID lights should not be allowed on the road as they are too bright and distracting, yet it seems a recent the goal is to have brighter headlights that anyone else on the road.

Well done Audi :clap3:

I think a lot of that is the self levelling systems (a requirement now) just don't react quickly enough and very few are adaptive (left and right for corners).

That looks really clever system and be nice to see an end to being dazzled by beam lights but imagine it take a while for other cars to adopt it plus be interesting to see if it could retro fitted.......

LED headlights are becoming more common now, but yeah probably take a while for the matrix tech to filter down, I've never even owned a car with HID lights.  Retro fitting would be tricky as need the camera and recognition system as well.
