How the Volkswagen Head-up Display System Works

Model: Volkswagen Volkswagen Various
Part: Onboard computer

Video tutorial

This video explains how Volkswagen's augmented reality system, known as the "Head-up" display, works. It is an innovative technology that projects important information directly into the driver's line of sight, without the need to look away from the road: it is like having a small transparent screen in front of you that displays the speed at eye level, without looking at the speedometer, navigation appears directly on the windscreen as if it were overlaid on the real road, guiding you with arrows indicating the correct lane or providing alerts on speed limits; you can also receive useful information, such as fuel levels or incoming calls.

It reduces distraction while driving, allowing you to keep your eyes on the road, and enhances the driving experience. The technology uses a projector that displays images directly onto the windscreen.

Currently, this technology is found in ID vehicles, the electric models from the brand.
