The Digital Cockpit was first unveiled at the 2018 Consumer Electronics Show, but I’m told I’ll be the first journalist to test version 2.0.
Inside the Digital Cockpit, six screens stretch from one side of the car to the other, providing a souped-up, digital rehash of a traditional dashboard. But instead of relying on a giant tablet computer, like you’d see in a Tesla, Samsung has chosen to stay with the dashboard experience to offer a streamlined, horizontal interface.
The set of screens features two side-view “e-mirrors” that use augmented reality to highlight moving figures nearby for greater situational awareness. Nine on-board cameras help me see what’s around me, even in the rain. “We can detect pedestrians outside the vehicle or bicycles to make the driver know as early as possible to avoid an accident,” Yeo tells me.
