I can’t tell if it’s tracking the other cars and just turning the left side, or is it disengaging the laser high beams altogether with the oncoming traffic?
It tracks the cars until they are so close, that it can't turn the headlight more to the left and then disengages the left high beam. The laser beams will go off earlier, but the led high beam stays on until the car on the left lane is too close.
@@geoffbullock8280 Audi has laser lights + MATRIX LED which is superior to BMW's implementation. Laser doesn't necessarily mean the application allows for luminance levels to exceed exponentially than LED headlights. There are regulations that would prevent a laser headlight to be "1000 times brighter" than a LED headlight.
@@samfoxley8972 That's because laser is being used as a spotlight and that it can produce more light for less energy consumption per unit, making it a good application. That does not make laser always inherently brighter than other LED's. There is a video comparing a laser BMW and a MATRIX headlight and MATRIX clearly had more light output than the laser headlights.

Oh wow this is a cool example to really see how they work. I wish the us allowed them, they light up everything
The US does allow them. My friend's x5 xdrive45e has them.
It still takes a few seconds to switch off the high beam on oncoming traffic.

@@jjtainio - Thank you for the reply. Is this car the US version?
No, European version,
@@jjtainio I’m so sad. Do you know if it’s available in US?
Don't know. sorry.
camera name, please
iPhone 14 Pro Max
The Mercedes version of this is far superior tbh
Mercedes don't have Laser lights, only LED. Lasers are upto 1000 times brighter than LED.

@@Cooper-gh8ztLED headlights usually have a maximum range of just around 250-300 meters max. Laser headlights have 600 meters

Mercedes and superior don’t fit in the same sentence.
Rich white people cars! Laser headlights, car mirrors with cameras on them, must be nice to have such luxury’s
Hell yea
its not even that expensive. maybe an extra 20 grand on top of any other normal brand new car. a normal new car is only 20g less. if that
