Lexus, from Toyota, has announced the introduction of the world’s first digital side-view monitors on the new ES. By installing small exterior cameras on the front doors, Lexus vehicles will provide its drivers with a clearer view of the vehicle’s surrounding area.
The cameras in the digital side-view monitors transmit the images onto 5-inch display monitors located inside the cabin at the base of the front pillars.
Another advantage the monitors have over their conventional counterparts is that they are shaped to resist the accumulation of raindrops and snow, leaving the driver’s view unaffected.
