Perhaps I’m dreaming, or going nuts, but wasn’t there a move afoot on the part of GM, to put Infra red windshields and sensors in top of the line Caddy’s and Corvettes a few years ago?
I thought that I’d see a commercial about it. Deer in the road etc.
Anyone have any recall of this?

Regards.

There is an IR display for some models.

It's not IR, it's Night Vision I believe. They stopped it due to cliches last I checked.

I was pretty naive when I heard about this technology and thought the night vision images would overlay what we saw through the windshield the way some of the military systems do. However, since it's just a night vision video camera image being projected on the lower part of the windshield, I think it's really more of a distraction like a DVD than a benefit like the HUD is.

I remember that Caddy commercial too! They made it look like an overlay on the windshield.
That would be a GREAT addition to the HUD.
Deer around here make me

Check Lingenfelter's web site. They have a night vision package that can be added to any car...around $3,000 or so the last time I looked at it. WAY to much for me. But, some of you that live in Deer Country, it might help.

I've seen this system on several Caddys around here. Haven't asked the owner how well it works though.

Read in the paper today where Cadillac has dropped the NightVision option because of lack of interest from the buyers.

Did not like it. The camera was in the center of the grille, where the Caddy logo would normally be installed. Distracting....

Night vision was available on the Cadillac Deville
