There is another added feather in the crown of BMW MINI, the German brand has revealed an eye-wearable device just like Google Glass that helps MINI drivers to get messages, receive navigation tips and adjust parking with ease.
The eyewear comprises a built-in camera and see-through display technology on the lenses. The remote features are designed for better driving safety and navigation. When a person is driving, the camera would record the view and display information without being glazed on surrounding travelers. It would also show speed and speed limits in the eyewear so that the information is in the driver's prime field of view.
Drivers would be able to choose their destination through the glasses before entering the car, the time and mileage to destination, speed limits, texts and messages that will be narrated out by the car. The amplified device would offer X-ray view through the car to a better parking. A-pillars and doors would magically dissipate while wearing MINI goggles, as reported by Tech World.
BMW has initially revealed a technology that allows drivers to park cars with their smart watches. Driver can simply shut the door, activate the parking assistant from their wrist and let their car park itself. The prototype of the eye-wearable device is expected to be displayed at the upcoming Auto Shanghai trade fair this month.
