Automotive HUD Market info

The automotive head-up display (HUD) is a small projector that shows crucial smartphone functions on the innermost portion of the helmet's visor, such as phone calls and Google Maps. It won't block the view and will continue to be transparent. Connectivity with other riders and a robust audio experience are guaranteed by a directional microphone and a 55mm, 99-decibel flat speaker. To navigate without a smartphone and to be aware of blind areas while driving, consumers can utilize automotive head-up display (HUD) helmets, which reduces the likelihood of accidents. Additionally, the market for automotive head-up displays (HUD) helmets is expected to develop due to the increasing use of artificial intelligence in vehicles. 

Another new technology that is having a similar effect on the size and functionality of HUD applications is holographic film. Thanks to recent developments in polymer films and novel printing methods, holographic films now have more options. Furthermore, automobile OEMs have limited profit margins and continuously seek ways to cut expenses. HUD adoption was formerly restricted to premium and luxury vehicles because of their high cost but is currently only permitted in mid-size vehicles.
