Polestar's Digital Rearview Mirror Revolutionizes Car Design
Polestar, the electric performance car brand, is revolutionising mirror technology. The absence of a traditional mirror in their vehicles creates more space and enhances the passenger experience. The Polestar 4, their latest model, boasts an innovative switchable HD digital display, replacing the standard mirror.
Polestar has embraced the digital age, replacing traditional mirrors with high-tech alternatives. The Polestar Precept was the first to introduce this concept, offering drivers a choice between an HD digital display and a standard mirror. This innovation not only increases comfort but also improves safety.
The Polestar 4's digital mirror has undergone rigorous testing, including wet conditions at the Hällered Proving Ground in Sweden. This advanced technology provides real-time information via an 8.9-inch HD screen, using a 2.5-megapixel camera with a 121-degree field of view. This offers drivers enhanced visibility, particularly in poor lighting or rain.
The digital mirror, once a futuristic concept, is now a reality in Polestar vehicles. This innovation, first introduced in the Polestar Precept and now standard in the Polestar 4, marks a significant shift in car design. After a century of the standard mirror, Polestar is leading the way into a new era of automotive technology.
