It’s Audi’s Night Vision Assistant. Neat eh. And crisp, look at those buildings.
Below is Bay Street.
See the time? 4:30pm, the sun hasn’t gone down and it still works.
The yellow rectangles are pedestrians. If there’s a risk of collision, the highlighting turns red and an alarm sounds.
How it works:
It uses a thermal imaging camera, aka an infrared (IR) camera, mounted in the grille.
It can detect pedestrians up to 90m away. Turn the system off via a hard button.
Came up with an idea – a car appears almost all-white when it’s fully loaded with people. Therefore I could use this tech to find 18-wheelers being used for human trafficking, tada.
And that’s me about to get hit.
