A Brighter Future with High-Res Porsche LED HD-Matrix Headlights
Imagine if you could illuminate the road ahead by up to double the light intensity? New Porsche innovated high-resolution LED main headlights with HD matrix technology distributes light brighter than previous systems.
Not a Chip off the Old Block
A collaboration with partners, the science behind it is a chip that enables 16,000 individually controllable micro-LEDs installed on the surface area the size of a thumbnail. Each headlight will house two such chips – four per vehicle – offering high-res light distribution up to twice as bright on a surface four times larger than former top-notch components. Porsche drivers should be able to see clearly now, even when the rain hasn’t gone.
Full Beam Ahead
Cockpit controls will give the driver flexibility with the choice of narrow-lane light, an adaptive motorway high-beam light and a non-dazzling high-beam function for accommodating oncoming traffic. Improved road safety and better comfort to look forward to, now that’s functionality that is lit-up!
Porsche has developed the light technology of the next generation with its new high-resolution HD matrix technology. The core element of the innovation created in collaboration with partners is a chip that combines over 16,000 individually controllable micro-LEDs onto the surface area the size of a thumbnail. Of these LED chips, two are utilised for each headlight – four per vehicle. The headlights with HD matrix technology therefore offer a high-resolution light distribution up to twice as bright on a surface four times larger than previous top-notch systems.
The driver benefits from the highly flexible light that the new development makes possible thanks to extremely homogeneous illumination. In addition, there are innovative functions such as lane illumination, construction and narrow-lane light and adaptive motorway high-beam lights. The high-performance high beam turns night into day at a distance of up to 600 metres. A new non-dazzling high beam function is used for oncoming vehicles: large areas to the right and left of the anti-dazzling gap become significantly brighter.
Jason RC –
I ordered a headlights and it got here so fast I wasn’t even ready for install yet. Fit and finish look excellent though and I’m so happy with it. Highly recommend parts from AMG parts!
