A certain number of car manufacturers and level 1 suppliers have played with ways to make our cars instantly customizable, whether they are ink ink or the BMW Ivision DEE concept in 2023 which transformed The whole body of a digital canvas car.
But Evision Auto thinks that it can already offer this technology with its front display unit which has been designed to adapt transparently on the Tesla outgoing Y model.
The electrical display, which is integrated into a model front bumper Y and then installed on the vehicle, has a high-resolution LED panel which can be personalized and personalized via a dedicated Android and iOS smartphone application.
Presented in a corner of the Las Vegas Convention Center at CES this year, Evision Auto demonstrated how the screen could present a series of colored static works of art, manga characters with brilliant landscapes.
In addition to that, the model front of the model could be done to look like a Bugatti (or Bugiit, Bugtart or Bighaun for legal reasons), the Prancing Horse logo of Don Ferrari or even reproduce a kind of version generated by AI of a Maserati or Rolls -rhyce grid and headlights.
To watch
Naturally, there are fairly important questioning points on the legality of the conduct with such a gifted thing on the front of your car – not to mention the prosecution in imminent copyright – while the sustainability of the LED unit Must be without a look because it is mounted in such a vulnerable place.
That said, Evision Auto says that the fully customizable grille will cost between $ 2,500 and $ 3,000 (about £ 2,200 £ / 400 in), with an installation taking approximately two hours, according to Carscoops.
The company also claims that it plans to deploy technology to other EV brands in the near future.
The future of cars or flashy vaporware?
Although Auto Eission has a presence at CE this year, this does not necessarily mean that technology will soon be seen on a Tesla near you.
We have contacted the company to ask a certain number of questions, mainly surrounding the legality of the screen and the number of units that the company had sold to date, but we are still waiting for an official response.
Much of imaging and video on the company’s website is generated by AI, which does not increase well. There is no doubt that technology exists and that the use of outdoor screens will be something that we see more in the future – despite division opinions.
Continental, for example, presented a window projection solution in Las Vegas this year, which radiated images of a projector mounted inside the car on a side windshield.
The Chinese car manufacturer Baojun also has a model with a digital screen at the rear that can be personalized to look like a watch face or include Emoji-Esque graphics, while the Hiphi Z has programmable digital lighting ‘Before and 1,314 LEDs on the sides to display messages in the outside world.
China seems to lead this type of technological change in the automotive sector and with more brands starting to make progress in Western markets, we could start to see vehicles wink, displaying images of Spider or send messages to passers -by. Whether you like it or not.
