New HD Matrix lights will each incorporate two chips with the new technology which can illuminate the way ahead at a distance of up to 600 metres.
Porsche has developed a lighting innovation that combines more than 16,000 individually controllable micro-LEDs onto a surface the size of a thumbnail.
New cars will incorporate two chips with this technology into each headlight, enabling beams that turn night into day at a distance of up to 600 metres.
The car’s HD matrix lights will illuminate a 40-degree horizontal and ten-degree vertical range with a luminous flux of over 1,400 lumens.
“Because the HD matrix headlights only activate the pixels that are actually needed at any given moment, they consume considerably less energy [than] other high-resolution systems, while the amount of light remains the same,” says Hermann-Josef Stappen, a spokesperson for R&D and technology communications at Porsche.
