What are the activation conditions for BMW laser headlights?
1 Answers
BMW laser headlights are activated when driving in complete darkness, the vehicle speed exceeds the manufacturer-set threshold, and the car is traveling on a relatively open road. Below are detailed introductions about laser headlights: 1. Size: Laser headlights possess most of the advantages of LED headlights, such as fast response time, low brightness attenuation, compact size, low energy consumption, and long lifespan. Compared to LED headlights, laser headlights particularly excel in size. A single laser diode element can be as small as 10 micrometers, which is only 1/100th the size of a conventional LED element. 2. Luminous efficiency: Typical LED lights achieve a luminous efficiency of about 100 lumens per watt, while laser diode elements can reach approximately 170 lumens per watt. Under the same lighting conditions, laser headlights consume less than 60% of the energy used by LED headlights, further reducing energy consumption.
