Turning off the rain at the flick of a switch
Turning off the rain at the flick of a switch
Industrious researchers at the renowned Carnegie Mellon University are developing a system to improve nocturnal visibility under rainy conditions. The lab results are very interesting and show that there's much more than optimistic sci-fi at play here. Of course, a home grade DLP projector isn't going to cut it for lighting up dark mountain roads, and a desktop-grade core i7 processor for each headlight won't help cut costs. But if this project goes through, by the time it becomes market ready most cars' multimedia systems will already have the necessary silicon-power to run optimized code on the side, and LED technology will surely give a hand in working the magic.
