I read about this a couple years ago and thought it was the coolest thing in the world. I still do!
I'm glad to read they're making progress on it.

I'm always in favor of new technology, but this does beg the question of what will happen to insurance premiums. Will it lower them because it really helps, or will it raise them because officers will be less likely to give a break knowing people definately seen that speed limit sign?

For me personally I can't stress how awesome this is. Anytime we leave on vacation we leave late at night. It seems I'm always driving through West Virginia, and DAMN does it get foggy there early morning.

I don't make a connection between greater situational awareness and auto-drive. Parking assist? Sure. Smart cruise? Sure. Collision avoidance? Absolutely. But HUD?


Oh, and merged

I think maybe he's referring to the visual recognition software involved with this advanced HUD system.
