I'm sure there must be a cheaper and simpler solution that would add very little to the CD figure. You know, something like a reflective bit of glass. Maybe someone will invent it one day.
I have a feeling the passenger playing on his/her phone would easily block the driver's vision into the digital rear mirror view. And what if your screen fails to load, then you end up getting a ticket or driving dangerously?

How about placing the mirror display of the far side mirror next to the driver, that way the driver just has to glance left or right of the steering wheel.
@@VijayKumar-vm5uo forces you to look down, with less peripheral of the road ahead, as well as a more narrow view of each side because you can’t use positioning your own body to see more
As a motorcycle rider I prefer classic as I can monitor drivers head position and intentions. Driving on the phone is a huge issue and introducing this tech means we can't observe other drivers like we used to
What systems redundancy do you have with this? Risk of display failure, circuit failure etc. Small mirrors harder to see so other drivers more likely to hit them etc
I much prefer how Hyundai, Genesis and Kia have the blind spot camera display in the instrument cluster. This allows you to keep your eyes on the road.
@Jerry Rawlings Unlikley, the big cost is inboard with the touch sensitive screens etc. Outside it is just a casing and a relatively cheap camera which is unlikely to break. Unlike a door mirror, there is no mirror to break and adjustment mechanism to break either, just the casing.
Not necessarily so. I reckon the most expensive bits are the interior screens. The external bit is just a non adjustable casing (so cheaper than adjustable mirrors) a small heater (so cheaper than that needs to heat a whole mirror) and a small video camera. An etron already has six of these and so those in the wing mirror are just another two, and they are relatively simple technology which people have in phones and dash cams. They doing extent out as much as mirror and if they do get hit there is no glass to break, just the plastic housing. My simple maths = not a big bill.
So useless showcase design. At first, I thought there were nothing outside but when I discovered that cameras almost the size of a regular mirror which are more prone to damage with very expensive repairs, I said what's the point of this unnecessary complication? Put nothing extending outside and provide the same vision inside and then come to me.
I was hoping it would protrude less than a traditional door mirror, for my X5 door mirror got hit by the large mirror of a bus. It is costing £1,800 for the repairs.
Hmmm doesn't actually make you take your eye off the road ,having to glance downwards, at least conventional mirrors you vision covers the main road whilst looking at your mirrors.
Cool idea, several issue I noticed. 1. When this same sort of thing came out in Honda in 2014, is kept the mirrors and made it so you could move the far or right mirror onto your dashboard screen, with grids nice and close 2. Blind spot system makes it hard to see all directly around, especially with a high percentage of drivers changing lanes using mirrors 3. Bad location, always looking down, let's just go back to the days of an accident being caused by someone texting while driving, not playing with the screens and controls 4. Dim system, dash, if you turn the dash down to far, I really doubt you could see the screens, mirrors don't dim when the dash does 5. Most likely like Honda's lane watch, the camera has a light in it so you can see the road easier at night, (not an issue) but still in a bad spot the screens 6. They are so large, benefit of the new Hyundai lane watch and Honda lane watch is, camera is really small so someone who is most likely a criminal wont be walking and then running away with your camera mirror, this car, the exact opposite, Honda and Hyundai, little tiny on side of your mirror, except the 2014-15 civic, hanging down like a sore thumb (opinion) 7. How do you parallel park with it, something where mirrors are quit important Last. It's obviously a ploy, not a safety feature. If it's denied from some countries, it's probably because it could be considered desteactive. In conclusion, can we go back in time where the feature in a car was Bluetooth, Navi, and digital speedometer, where countries and stuff might not have to consider laws against playing with your screen because of destruction issues.
What's wrong with my horse? NOTHING? Why do I need these expensive 'car' things that break down? My horse never breaks down. - People in 1900. Stop being adverse to change. You sound like an idiot.
Plus horses can die. Also mirrors have this thing called distance vision, or look how far you can see back in full reflection, this is literally taking a camera and sticking it on a car with a Bluetooth system going to your phone so you can video around
Most likely less or equivalent, heated mirrors on cars cost a surprising amount from my experience and often are targeted by thieves to be stolen and resold, mounting a camera sensor should be pretty cheap if not the same cost. This is mostly a guess but either way I don't think either option on a german estate will be cheap :)
Drag was not the issue here, it benefits very little, that percentage he said must been only compared to conventional mirror and mirror only, not the full car drag. Also, if you already invented new technology, you dont integrate it as old one. No need for displays on sides, now display can be in front of driver, and no need for cameras at traditional point, it can be on the edge of the car, no need for wings anymore. I feel it was invented but not implemented
There is difference between 'ban(n)ed' and 'not yet authorised'. The real reason is that an american didn't invent them. Once a yank devises something similar that doesn't impinge patents, things will change.
Very nice video, except for the "music" if I can call it that. Next time stick to something more conservative. Just a suggestion. Some people dislike new trends.
I own a civic, and the civic has a version. It's a lane watch cam that is right signal preferred on or off, and a button that can control it, all it does though is move your right mirror to a camera on your dash screen and give grids. This is a mirrorless system for only camera grid screens. Also Honda has it in the fit, insight, clarity, (Asian electric car slowly moving world wide) Ridgeline, (truck) CRZ and HRV.
C'est complètement débile. Un système électronique fragile, complexe, cher, qui empêche une vision naturelle, qui consomme de l'électricité. Mais jusqu'où s'arrêteront ils ces bandes de tarés. On veux des véhicules simples et légers.
The location is aweful. Audi, look at Honda. Just copy and paste that. Just that. No shame in copying a perfect solution. Other than that that interior these Audis have noawdays are awesome
Joseph Leroy mine too is an A6.. brand new with cracking headlights with no Audi explanation! Replaced them and less 6 months the same shit. Audi deny warranty and are saying washing the car causes without going into the real issue!
Completely unnecessary and an overkill on technology. Nothing was wrong with the side mirror. It was far less expensive, far more reliable and did the job just fine. If it's not broke, don't fix it.
and that’s why everything is so expensive with audi. Mechanic will charge you thousands of dollars for job that should be simple which isn’t because all over engineered and complex for nothing.
Do Yo like the Virtual Exterior Mirrors or prefer the classic solution?
I prefer the classic solution
Yes.
I am a student of automobile engineering.
I made concept for this. To reduce aerodynamic force.
Good job Audi.
I proud on myself.
Love it. We need to think out of the box here: Move the mirrors/displays closer to the center of the driver's view.
Bad idea
is the camera only for watching ore can the camera also recording like a dashcam?
Very good idea, but it will be better and more safety if the screen a little bit higher, so you can keep your eyes on the road.
They actually did what you suggested you were right

I'm sure there must be a cheaper and simpler solution that would add very little to the CD figure. You know, something like a reflective bit of glass. Maybe someone will invent it one day.
Why change something that wasn’t broken , plus you look at the mirror in different angles to get different viewers
Can I watch Netflix in the mirros during a drive?
Only Peter North
I have a feeling the passenger playing on his/her phone would easily block the driver's vision into the digital rear mirror view. And what if your screen fails to load, then you end up getting a ticket or driving dangerously?
There is a word for it can't remember it.
But it's about when you change something thats analog to make it digital for no benefit at all. This is it.

Isnt that what the i8 does?
If only there was a cheaper solution, something that already exists that we could use, I dunno, I’m thinking maybe something reflective?
They said, it's for reducing drag. Don't get it if you don't want it.

These screens would be better on a HUD somewhere on the windscreen. Or maybe centre console somewhere
how do i get this for my nissian
you dont want to park in a tight road and have some van smash those cameras ;x
Les likely than normal door mirror because they don't stick out so much.

10k lol
I would still prefer the side mirror, but if this feature (camera) add on the top of mirror will be better. As alter way at the heavy rain..
The technique is nice but I wish the camera would be smaller because in its current size it looks like a normal mirror.
what song it was? please can someone tell me. thank you
Make video on Cadillac Manufacturing.
Fine until condensation started inside the unit and now I can’t use the mirror at all
How I can see the back if virtual mirror or display have some problem ??
How expensive is that going to be when it gets damaged

Everything in the world is getting futuristic. This was Audi’s best idea
Well for one no more blind spots....
Its very useful for full tinted glass
Abd Elhaleem Ahmed full tinted glass is illegal anyway...
That's where it could come in handy, they need that on auto dimming mirrors, and lane watch.
I was hoping it would protrude less than a traditional door mirror, for my X5 door mirror got hit by the large mirror of a bus. It is costing £1,800 for the repairs.
It does protrude less, barely more than the width of the rear wheel arches and much less the a traditional mirror.
How a bus mirror could hit your x5 mirror ? Bus mirrors are much higher
I wonder how much it will cost to replace the cost of the “camera” as opposed to the a side mirror
$1,000-$5,000 to replace if it breaks? Lol
The cam is of less area for dust or water or fog to cover. This worries me.
Hmmm doesn't actually make you take your eye off the road ,having to glance downwards, at least conventional mirrors you vision covers the main road whilst looking at your mirrors.
If you need closed in side
Hahaha Audi thats using a turn signal Hahahahaha
Nice! One more ting to break down. Was that really necessary?!?!
ting ? what's a ting ?
@ufster81 when you hit something with that mirror it may cost a couple 1000 i gues...
But sensors can break down, for instance, Nissan's front collision system, lots of complaints due to it failing, the sensor

This is overthinking over engineering at its finest.

I heard it Sucks... The camera is poor quality... Also no depth of field to judge distance of the car near you.
Try looking for yourself.
Can't wait for someone to smash the mirror cameras off accidentally or on purpose......that's gonna cost.......
Not suitable for harsh winters. Snow and ice can easily cover the camera
Makes no sence mirrors dont need to be that big and the screen shot should be on the centre console
Oh well such a great money value for thieves. Modern car manufacturers produce cars only for rich neighborhoods....
The non-symmetrical interior dash bothers me
IF you like to see still traditional mirrors on cars; move to USA. They all baned here.
