At the CES 2015 event, BMW presented its M4 Concept Iconic Lights, headlamp system that uses lasers and OLED lights for its work. This system includes several features that is it is not only meant to light the way in which you move the car. This puts it to some extent in the category of smart systems that take advantage of widely available technology today.

The system is divided into front and rear headlights, wherein the front use lasers as an addition to the light, while the rear are made with OLED technology.

Lasers on the front emit a blue light that with the use of phosphor plates turns into white, i.e. light that imitates daylight. Lasers have the opportunity to illuminate up to 600 meters in front of them, which is more than xenon and OLED lights that are used in cars.

The system is also equipped with small motors that direct the laser light in order to adapt to what is before them. This adjustment is done in a few situations. So, if there are pedestrians or other cars in front of the car, the lights are directed in such a way that ensures that they will not interfere with them. Also, the system further illuminates objects that are detected, but are considered that the driver is unable to see the at best. Thus, if for example there is an animal or pedestrian on the road, the light will be directed so that they are better illuminated.

The system is able to monitor the vehicles that drive in the same direction from the front of the car, and broadcast a kind of bands that inform the driver of the distance to the car and the safety for its passage.

The tail lamps are made in OLED technology which however is not yet ready for mass production. This way of making the tail lamps allows them to be much smaller than the present, or to occupy less space, while also consuming significantly less power.
