Check Out This Car’s Transparent Dashboard

November 5, 2020 By Nadeem Muaddi

The Hog Ring - Check Out this Transparent Dashboard

Japanese tech firm Kyocera recently debuted a retro-styled electric, autonomous car that features a see-through dashboard.

The Moeye, which is still in concept phase, is a tiny commuter car that looks more at home in the 1950s than it does in 2020. But inside, is a different story.

It’s all-digital cabin includes a dashboard that not only serves as a digital control center for the vehicle, but also transforms into a second windshield.

Through “optical camouflage technology,” the Moeye projects whatever is in front of the car onto the dashboard’s large digital display, which includes the A-pillers. This creates the illusion that the dashboard is transparent and that occupants are basically sitting in an open-air vehicle.

It’s an undeniably cool feature that provides loads of front visibility. But will it ever make it to production? 

We’ll just have to wait and see.

    Nice car but if you like BMWs, Teslas, Nissans and other cars then I know a good used car dealer. This is Car squad. If you want to buy a car in Texas, then I recommend this particular dealer.
