Mercedes EQS - DIGITAL LIGHT test, how it's work, POV night ride

Описание: The standard revolutionary DIGITAL LIGHT headlamp technology enables innovative functions such as the projection of auxiliary markings or warning symbols onto the road surface. DIGITAL LIGHT has a light module with three extremely powerful LEDs in each headlamp, whose light is refracted and directed by 1.3 million micro-mirrors. The resolution is therefore more than 2.6 million pixels per vehicle.

DIGITAL LIGHT uses the technology of video projectors with micro-mirrors that take up the same space as a thumbnail, and a control unit with a powerful graphic processor uses an HDMI-like connection to generate a continuous video stream to the mirrors. The new headlamp in the EQS can be recognized by its concave lens and the blue illuminated Mercedes-Benz lettering.

The beam divided into 1.3 million pixels makes absolutely precise light distribution possible. High- Beam Assist is highly accurate when masking out oncoming traffic or traffic signs. Light/shadow graduations and the light distribution of all the other adaptive light functions are also realized with considerably more precision, optimizing illumination by e.g. fog light, motorway light or city light.

These assistance functions are revolutionary:
Warning of recognized roadworks by projecting an excavator symbol onto the road surface
Aiming a spotlight at pedestrians detected at the roadside as a warning
Traffic lights, stop signs or no-entry signs are pointed out by projecting a warning symbol onto the road surface
Assistance on narrow road lanes by projecting guidelines onto the road surface
Indication of the start of cooperative lane change
Warning and directional guidance when Lane Keeping Assist or Blind Spot Assist detects a hazard

The topographic light takes hills into account on the basis of navigation maps, especially crests and depressions: When driving over a crest, for example, the headlamp does not shine into the sky, but is swivelled down as parallel as possible to the road. In depressions, the light cone is raised and thus practically all the desired range is obtained.

DIGITAL LIGHT welcomes and says farewell to the driver with a special light show.

Which DIGITAL LIGHT projection functions are allowed differs internationally so integrated geo- fencing helps to comply with legal regulations in each country. When the vehicle crosses a border, the EQS automatically adjusts the functions of DIGITAL LIGHT to the applicable regulations.
