BMW has taken the wraps off the M4 Concept Iconic Lights at the ongoing 2015 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. It carries the Bavarian carmaker's latest innovation in the field of car lighting. The M4 Concept Iconic Lights has a new generation of high-beam laser lights that can provide a high beam upto 600m. It works in tandem with the anti-dazzle system developed to prevent oncoming and preceding cars from being blinded by the light, while the laser high beam is on at all times.

The M4 concept is painted in metallic white and the twin round headlights have thin blue strips inside them. The tail lights give off a three-dimensional effect thanks to OLEDs (organic light-emitting diodes), which produce light from wafer-thin semiconducting layers of organic material.

The lighting system can create different illumination according to the driving mode, and also use navigation to illuminate corners even before the steering wheel is turned.

BMW says it will be launching a production model featuring OLED technology in the near future.
