Description
Lighting in cars is one of the most crucial safety features, and the latest LED technologies have taken it even further. The cool thing about LED is that the precision and flexibility has been taken to a whole new level. With LEDs, you can basically project whatever you want on the road. This opens up new venues for expanding the driving experience. Currently, the legislation regarding car lighting is restrictive, but in this project, we want to assume legal issues won’t stand in the way of great demos and concepts.
How might we take full advantage of headlamps and rear lights with the new lighting technologies? Assuming costs are not an issue, what information and in what situations it could be projected onto the road and the surroundings? How could a car lighting act as a communication tool for pedestrians and bike riders? How about accidents or other unwanted or unusual situations? How might we increase the feeling of safety on our roads?
Come and join this project to create visual concepts and demos to showcase the potential value of car lighting. This project is going to be focused heavily on visual concepts and, if time allows, even prototyping different solutions.
