What are the HD-Matrix LED Headlights?
Porsche 911 (992.2) comes as standard with the Matrix LED headlights, while HD-Matrix LED headlights are available as an option. But what are the HD-Matrix LED Headlights? Let’s find out.
What are the HD-Matrix LED Headlights?
The HD-Matrix LED is a powerful lighting system that adapts to the respective driving situation at lightning speed. This technology is based on HD-Matrix modules with 16384 individual micro-LED pixels on a surface measuring just under 41 mm². Each headlight contains a module with a wide-angle lens for wide light distribution (40 degrees wide, 10 degrees high) and one with a telephoto lens for long range (20 degrees wide, 5 degrees high).
With more than 32,000 pixels per headlamp, this lighting system generates a high-resolution, digital light image that covers the entire high beam range as well as the main area of the low beam. Each individual pixel can be activated, deactivated or dimmed in 1024 steps. A powerful control unit calculates changes in just 16 milliseconds.
This creates a homogeneous light field that adapts to the respective driving situation. The-HD Matrix LED headlights offer, for example, lane illumination, roadworks and narrow-lane lighting, marker light and a dedicated motorway high beam. Special light modes for driving in rain or fog, at junctions, when turning or on bends also feature in the range of functions.
The HD-modules are located in the lower section of the headlights. The bifunctional modules installed above them provide the courtesy lighting and the auxiliary high beam. If the system does not detect a vehicle in front or an oncoming vehicle when the automatic high beam is activated, the auxiliary high beam switches on and increases the amount of light from 1400 to 2500 lumens. The auxiliary high beam illuminates the road to a distance of more than 600 metres. If another vehicle is detected, the system automatically switches back to HD-Matrix mode.
The four modules generate the distinctive Porsche light signature in all light modes, even when the low beam and high beam are switched on.
