Land Rover introduces Transparent Hood technology

Land Rover has just released the first information about a very unique technology that they are developing - that is Transparent Bonnet technology (in America called Transparent Hood) or today called "transparent bonnet." ". It may sound strange but in fact, this name does not yet reveal the uniqueness and complexity of the technology behind it.

By using a series of images obtained from the camera, this Transparent Hood system can project images of the front and bottom areas of the vehicle thanks to a HUD (Head-Up Display) display system arranged. in the lower part of the windshield.

This is a testament to the efforts of the British carmaker in the application of modern science and technology to cars. This system is still in the testing process and it will be completed to apply to commercial vehicles as soon as possible.
