Mercedes-Benz's MBUX advanced multimedia infotainment system features a HUD with augmented reality
0MBUX or Merceds-Benz User Experience is in its second generation and will debut with the 2021 S-Class sedan. The vehicle interior is even more digital and intelligent, with up to five large screens, including those with OLED technology. Mercedes says we can expect the system to be more personalizable and more intuitive to use especially in the rear, but also for the driver.
There is a 3D driver display that offers a spatial view at the touch of a button. Creating a real three-dimensional effect is achieved without having to wear 3D glasses. The HUD provides augmented reality (AR) content. When navigating, for example, animated turn-off arrows ("fishbones") are virtually and precisely projected onto the road lane.
For the assistance functions, information from i.e. Active Distance Assist is shown. The image appears virtually at a distance of 32 feet, which corresponds with the display area to a monitor with a 77-inch diagonal screen.
The voice assistant "Hey Mercedes" is also said to be more advanced. Dialogue-capable through activation of online services in the Mercedes me App and certain actions can be performed without the activation keyword "Hey Mercedes". These include accepting a telephone call. "Hey Mercedes" now also explains vehicle functions and answers general knowledge questions. In the S-Class the voice assistant can also be controlled from the rear seats.
