4 MULTIBEAM LED LEDs are very much at the forefront when it comes to the future of lighting technology – due to their stronger luminosity and the rare semiconductor crystals. With their help, the luminous efficiency of LEDs can exceed that of conventional bulbs several times over. If the optionally available MULTIBEAM LED light system is ordered, each headlamp is equipped with 36 LEDs, of which 24 can actually be controlled individually. To this end, a camera positioned behind the windscreen surveys the current traffic conditions. Based on the information they receive, four control units calculate the ideal light pattern a hundred times per second and direct the LEDs almost instantaneously to shine where their light is needed.
