Mirrorless Cars Are Coming — Here’s Why That Matters by MyplanetCarNG: 5:25pm On Jul 11, 2016 |
Mirrorless cars are coming to Japan, and will soon be appearing in other countries as well. A mirrorless car replaces the rearview mirror and the sideview mirrors with camera monitoring systems. These systems basically replace the mirrors with displays that show video footage of the car’s surroundings. According to industry experts, these monitoring systems are much safer than using mirrors because the camera views are wider, thus eliminating blind spots. Last year, the United Nations World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations, which sets international safety standards for vehicles, said it will allow carmakers to replace mirrors in cars with cameras and display systems. Japan passed a law in June allowing for automakers to make and sell mirrorless cars, making it one of the first countries to embrace the technology. The EU is expected to follow suit soon and the US could put in place regulations for such vehicles by 2018, according to a report from Automotive News. While production vehicles without mirrors will be a first, automakers have shown off mirrorless concept cars for quite sometime. In January, for example, BMW showed off its i8 concept car, which was completely mirrorless. Read more + photos: http://myplanet-car.com/autonews.php?sid=273 |
