Lexus is providing its drivers with a clearer view of the vehicle’s surrounding area through an installation of this system which provides for transmission of images to 5-inch display monitors located inside the vehicle’s cabin at the base of the front pillars.
The Monitors are also shaped to resist the accumulation of raindrops and snow which may hinder the driver’s view during journeys adding another advantage for this unique system.
