Las Vegas: At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2022) in Las Vegas, USA, BMW has introduced a new car that can change its color in just a few seconds.
Called the "iX Flow", the color of this car includes the same "e-ink" (electric ink) that has been used in the "Amazon Kindle" and other e-book readers for many years.
Adding e-ink to the paint and varnish applied to the car in such a way that it does not deteriorate and then making necessary changes in the body of the car so that the color of e-ink can be changed if needed, both are very difficult tasks in their own right. Which was finally successfully completed by a team of BMW engineers after years of hard work.
Despite all this, the "BMW IX Flow" can only change color from white to black or from black to white because e-ink is only available in those colors (and that is why e-books are still color-coded). Could not be created).
It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post.
However, the BMW Group says that at present it is a demonstration of technology (technology demonstrator) which can not be said yet to reach the market.
