The BMW Group is sharing its vision of the future digital experience, both inside and outside the vehicle, at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2023 in Las Vegas. BMW i Vision Dee is the futuristic mid-size sedan with a new and pared-down design language. The name “Dee” stands for Digital Emotional Experience – and that is precisely its aim: to create an even stronger bond between people and their cars going forward. Future digital functions will go far beyond the level of voice control and driver assistance systems we are familiar with today. The BMW Head-Up-Display extends across the full width of the windscreen, providing a glimpse of the next vehicle generation. From 2025 onwards, this innovation will be available in the models of the NEUE KLASSE. The BMW Group has also refined its use of colour-change technology. Having unveiled the BMW iX Flow Featuring E Ink, with the ability to change from black to white, at the last CES, BMW i Vision Dee can now curate its exterior in up to 32 colours.
As part of a sophisticated mixed-reality installation, BMW will immerse visitors to Mobile World Congress 2019 in application scenarios where they can experience the customer benefits of BMW Natural Interaction for themselves hands-on. A specially-designed spatial concept and virtual-reality goggles are used to create a thoroughly realistic experience that showcases the new possibilities during a virtual ride in the BMW Vision iNEXT. Visitors discover the previously unknown freedom of gesture control throughout the area detected by the gesture camera, which extends across the entire width of the front vehicle interior. Initially, in training mode, directional detection of the pointing gesture is visualised by a dynamic light pulse that follows the direction. Objects the driver can interact with via pointing are then highlighted. Just how natural this interaction is becomes apparent in the simple combination of gesture and language. For example, if the driver points to a side window, this is visually highlighted with a frame and the voice command "Open" will then open the chosen window. These totally new possibilities for interaction with the immediate environment are revealed during an automated journey through a futuristic city the driver is unfamiliar with. The vehicle takes over driving and the visitor embarks on a sightseeing tour of a very different kind – simply pointing at buildings to obtain all the information they need about events and exhibitions. Towards the end of the ride, the user reserves tickets for a cinema they drive by along their route and streams the trailer for the film directly into the vehicle.
At the 2019 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas from January 8 – 11, 2019, the BMW Group presents its vision of intelligent connectivity to the public, highlighting the potential for future individual mobility. The focal point of the company’s CES showcase is the BMW Vision iNEXT, which looks ahead to the future of driving pleasure, and the BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant, which, as an on-board expert and the soul of the BMW, constitutes the central element for interaction between the driver, their vehicle, and their digital world. The BMW Vision iNEXT forms the optical highlight of the exhibition stand, which also showcases the interior design principle “My Favorite Space” with harmonious, natural surfaces and technology that is kept discreetly out of sight. A sophisticated mixed-reality installation also provides a virtual impression of the future driving experience promised by the BMW Vision iNEXT.
