Well folks in case you’re not sure about how smart the dashboard of your next Mercedes might be, then you should definitely give this SplitView a chance.
It’s an LCD which will be mounted in your dashboard. What’s so special about wit? Well the name says it all. Despite being a single screen it will offer two different views to you and the passenger riding shotgun.
The driver can check the GPS and its instructions while the person on its right (or left for that matter) can watch a movie. The next S-Class Mercedes-Benz will get the technology in summer 2009.
An 8-inch TFT will do the job for you. The image is created by alternating rows of pixels. A masking lens will be used in order for each passenger to see it’s version of the picture.
What about controlling it? Well the driver will use the buttons on the dash while the passenger will use a remote control to choose what movie to watch today. Or TV channel for that matter.
