Huawei XPixel Headlights Have Built-in Projectors, Lets You Recreate Classic Drive-In Theater Experience
SMRTR summary
Headlights have always lit the road ahead, but Huawei is now asking them to screen a movie too.
The company's new XPixel system transforms a car's front headlights into a full-color projector, capable of throwing a roughly 100-inch image onto a nearby wall, no extra equipment required.
The technology packs a million pixels per headlamp, with individual control over red, green, and blue. At a recent tech conference in Beijing, Huawei demonstrated the system playing football matches and video clips projected directly onto a white wall.
When the car is moving, the same lights paint navigation arrows onto the road, signal pedestrians with color patterns, and adjust their color temperature in fog or rain.
The first vehicle to get the full treatment will be the next generation of the Aito M9 electric SUV. Huawei plans to roll the technology across several other models, quietly turning an everyday safety feature into something far more cinematic.
