      You're literally paying so that you can see more while not having to constantly adjust your headlights between high beam and low beam, how does this mean you're paying for the enjoyment of others? Think before typing.

It's really cool to see them in action when going in corners you can see the adaptive lights working. I was surprised from my 2014 BMW to 2016 the 2 year gap had noticeable upgrades.

      It mostly depends on the generation. Usually BMWs have 7 year generations, but that timeline has been reduced recently. They can also make smaller improvements during that time, but a new generation usually means pretty much everything you see is new.

    Practically, all three systems give the same exact result: be able to see at full night with fully adaptive headlights which dont make the oncoming traffic go blind...

    I agree car tech should be as automated as it can but this high beam tech is bull $hit. I am driving 400km a night and I get blinded constantly by these new "smart" cars. First of all we do not live in a world of straight roads. Even highways are curvy, and especially regular roads. This system (all of them) first have to detect a source of light from the other car and than they can react. On curvy roads that can be only 100m away. In real world it does not take half of a second to detect oncoming traffic. Sometimes it does not detect it at all, and driver just does not care, he did set his lights at AUTO and it is not his responsibility to do anything. So when I flash them, their system instantly recognizes me and turn their lights away. In this situation a human can not be replaced. Human can see high beams on mountain, tree, in the fog even before they see the car and hit low beams before blinding others. When technology can do that than this should be legal. Could sound like whining but for a night shift truck driver it can be veeery inconvenient.

    • @jackfalstad7711
      @jackfalstad7711 Před 5 lety +3

      Im going to be straight with you, these systems work more quickly than a human would on a curvey road. My Mazda has active high beams which are 10X less advanced than these and they worked flawlessly last time I went out on some curvy roads at night. Took 1 to 3 tenths of a second to turn off the high beams. A human would almost certainly take at least as long. And I think you are confusing your automated systems with non-automated systems. Firstly, you aren't going to be able to tell if it is an automated system being in oncoming traffic. Just because it's a cool or bright looking light does not mean it is one of these hyper-advanced lighting systems; these are very rare additions to very expensive cars. And secondly, the whole "when I flash them their system instantly recognizes me" proves to me you are wrong. An automatic system probably won't change its behavior based on a rapid flash of light. A clueless human, on the other hand, would see the flash and then realize they need to turn off their high-beams. Look, there are tons of idiots driving around with their high beams in your face, yes, but I am 9000000000% sure you got the "wrong guys" here. These systems work. Humans do not.

    They're all good. A lot of thought has gone into each of these lighting systems so less of the fanboy shit.

    old one system is better...the new system makes only shadows in front of the cars(reduce light)its like you turn the flashlight near de cars in front...😐

    A point all are missing is costs. BMW system works fine and doesn‘t cost a fortune to replace. Imagine buying a new Mercedes headlight. You could buy a new car from that money😂

      Yes but when you buy a Mercedes with Multi beam you don't have money problems

    That Audi headlights are from 2013, so it's not great comarison. Audi have newer headlights from 2015, Laser Matrix LED, that lights matching year of Mercedes headlights because Mercedes headlights in this video are from newer E-Class. Older used 2 lenses while newer use 1 lens in each headlight.
