• Turn-by-turn navigation places a bright blue arrow in the driver's field of view.
• The AR system placing a red line over a lane marker to let a driver know when they're drifting too far to one side.

How Audi Q4 E-Tron's AR Heads-Up Display Works

The company's latest AR heads-up display technology works by receiving more than 1,000 signals from sensors that are efficiently placed in various parts of the car. This allows the new AR heads-up screen to accurately display the outside road. Audi also confirmed that it discovered the best areas where to put the sensors so that they will remain in place even if the new Audi Q4 E-Tron is driving over a bumpy surface.

Audi's innovation is also expected to solve the issue when a heads-up display only shows static information when the car is moving at top speed, which could really affect the driver's outside view. Right now, the company didn't confirm how did it fix the issue. You can click here for more details.
