The virtual image appears about a metre in front of the driver and measures 4.5 inches. The projector’s 400×240 resolution and 13,000cd/m2 brightness mean that it stays visible even in broad daylight, especially with the aid of an optical sensor that automatically adjusts brightness based on external conditions. Here’s what else we know for sure:
• It runs Windows CE.
• It’s got 2GB of built-in flash memory.
• It’s dead sexy.
Additional pricing and availability info will come towards the end of the year, by which time we’ll hopefully have some flying cars to put it in. And no, I don’t think that’s too much to ask. [GizMag]
