This partnership will help Hyundai achieve its vision for future mobility

WayRay's holographic AR solutions create a true augmented reality experience where virtual objects are seamlessly integrated into a vehicle's interior environment. Compared to conventional head-up displays (HUD) available in the market, WayRay's technology boasts a smaller projection system that provides a clearer image, which can be installed in almost any vehicle.

Its exceedingly wide field of view allows for displaying more virtual objects at a comfortable distance for a driver's eyes. It has no restriction in display size parameters, and can even project a display that covers the entire front windshield. The technology can also be integrated with the vehicle's side windows to provide passengers with a variety of infotainment services. There are currently no other technologies capable of reaching those parameters.

There are limitless possibilities for how this technology can be utilized in the automobiles. Traffic information can be displayed on the road through the windshield, so drivers can maintain their focus on the road ahead, which will improve road safety. It can provide improved driving directions based on the car's speed, including real-time information about crosswalks, pedestrians, roads and warning signs.

In future, if incorporated with autonomous driving technology that is hyperconnected to the road and neighboring vehicles, the technology will be able to display further information about the surrounding environment for the driver.

Hyundai is expanding partnerships in various fields to further strengthen core technology vital to autonomous driving and explore new business opportunities within smart city infrastructure.
