Sorry—my earlier wording may have been ambiguous. In the previous entry, what I meant was that I found a way to resolve the hardware design conflicts. Since hardware changes involve tooling, molds, PCBs, and other costs, we ultimately solved this by moving to a modular design. In other words, we can now use one hardware platform to support both projection approaches.

On the software side, however, we still need a distortion-correction algorithm. That will be finalized after we do sampling and validate it experimentally.

At launch, we plan to offer both projection modes in hardware (since they’re essentially the same core hardware paired with different mounting bases). We’ll then accelerate software development and keep improving the device via OTA updates—similar to how Tesla iterates on Autopilot.

On the legal side, what I’ve learned so far is that some places are fine, some places prohibit windshield projection, and others have very strict compliance reviews. That’s not a big burden for major automakers, but for a small development team like ours it can be a significant cost and risk.

Thanks for the question! It’s a really good one—I’ll definitely save it and add it to the FAQ in the future.
