before i went through step, the two guys in charge of recruiting for BMW NA were talking about how BMW is developing an LED headlight assist that will actually highlight objects in the road. It would seem they are getting closer.

well the technology isn't exactly new Cadillac was the first to use over 5 years ago and I have to say it is very helpful when I drove with it in blinding fog. The Cadillac is better because it is projected on the windshield not down on the dashboard.

Yeah, i can't see the advantage to putting it in the display like that. but then again i'm not so sure these are actual BMW pics, since i'm sure hey will incorporate that display into the HUD.
