Will the Apple Car benefit from augmented reality?

A newbrevetspotted this week by American journalists and filed by Apple explains how a vehicle could use its windows as screens to display, in real time, information superimposed on the external environment. An idea reminiscent ofthat of a concept car that BMW presented in 2016.

The applications of such a solution would be multiple. For example, we can imagine displaying the indications of theGPSon the road directly, as Google Maps already does on mobile or Solos connected glasses for cyclists. Besides,even Apple Glass is likely to use such software.

Fewer distractions?

In addition to its innovative aspect, installing AR in a smart car like theApple Car-the name not yet final, these are only assumptions- would also be an opportunity to reduce the risk of accidents. Indeed, having your eyes fixed on another device is a major security problem,against which, for example, Australia is fighting with artificial intelligence cameras.

In its patent, Apple even talks about installing LCD or OLED panels right into therear windows. A simple way to entertain passengers without them having to invest in a touchscreen tablet?
