Land Rover Transparent Bonnet Concept!

Once you get past the "WTF?" title, you actually realise its a pretty cool idea!

Land Rover has taken the wraps off a new Transparent Bonnet concept that uses Augmented Reality (AR) to give you a better view of the road.

The Land Rover Transparent Bonnet Concept uses cameras which are mounted in the vehicles grille, it then displays what the cameras can see on the bonnet of the vehicle.

Maybe they should sort out concepts such as reliability and Quality Control first!

Some decent engines wouldn't go amiss, either.

Very handy. So one can see the white line at the traffic light and push the nose over with the wheels just behind it as not to set off red light camera?
If I had to put my money on how/where it would be used most, it would have to be on "mounting he curb".

Demonstrated at Dunkeld LRE too.

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.
