BMW plans to give its owners more weaponry in their antisocial mission: laser headlamps. Photo BMW. Wonderful. Technology has added yet another way for BMW drivers to show complete disregard for other road users — laser headlights. Projected use: Zapping cyclists.
LEDs are obviously over already, and BMW plans to further enable its over-entitled, road-owning customers in their war on civility. The lights burn so much brighter than LEDs (170 lumens per watt instead of 100 lumens), and the diodes are so much smaller (10 microns) that they could disappear into the bodywork the way Apple hides the lights in its MacBooks.
