Comes to Life at the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show
Digitization has always been a keystone of BMW’s engineering and technology philosophies, emphasizing the sustainability and human connection of mobility. Thus, as we move into a future ripe with alternative realities and artificial intelligence, the German automaker has innovated a Consumer Electronics Show (CES) car of the future that is fully connected, fully digitized, and fully electric. In proper fashion, BMW invited us to its hometown of Munich to witness the vehicle in person ahead of the 2023 CES debut in Las Vegas.
In Germany, BMW’s entire product planning team was on-hand for demonstrations and presentations of the i Vision Dee’s superlative capabilities. Aptly named Dee, which stands for Digital Emotional Experience, the seamless and authenticity of the vehicle’s DNA is its greatest asset. BMW vehicles are becoming more intelligent but with human interactions in a natural way. Highlighted by its digital soul, Dee becomes your road mate as she blends emotions and strong bonds between her “machine state” and “human state.” Dee engages all five senses and combines digital and analog references to help you become a better driver. Theoretically anyway. However, you can choose not to use her advancements.
Fast forward to CES 2023 to revel in BMW’s unveiling of the i Vision to an energetic crowd of forward thinkers and AI enthusiasts. They were equally immersed in Dee, who bridges the real and virtual worlds and provides a glimpse of what the “Ultimate Digital Driving Machine” might look like in the future. Some of her highlights include real-time visualization of your social media platforms, responsiveness to your inquiries, tint-capable side windows to create a holistic experience through graphic pictures and avatars, information projected on the windshield, and the use of digital ink to change exterior messaging. When you first approach, the future car employs a wide range of sensors to start communicating while providing feedback to your inquisitions. Also, she can visually express various moods such as wonderment, delight, or approval. Are you ready for BMW i Vision Dee to integrate with your driving world?
“With the BMW i Vision Dee, we are showing what is possible when hardware and software are combined. This allows us to exploit the full potential of digitalization to transform the car into an intelligent companion. That is the future for automotive manufacturers – and for BMW, also: the fusion of the virtual experience with genuine driving pleasure,” said Oliver Zipse, Chairman of the Board of Management of BMW AG.
From a design perspective, Dee is quite fascinating, simple in nature, and reductive in physical features. Built with less complexity, she is presented with a nostalgic frontend from the 60s, utilizes no side mirrors, and sits wide and confident. The headlights and closed BMW kidney grille form a common phygital icon (fusion of physical and digital) on a uniform surface, which can change expressions using E Ink technology. The design team looked at classic BMW vehicles for references since familiarity and strong heritage build trust. Inside, the clean and flush cockpit is just as reductive as the exterior and commingles the BMW Mixed Reality Slider with the advanced Head-up Display (HUD) for the digital highlights and central operating controls. BMW says that using shy-tech sensors (touch) on the instrument panel allows the driver to determine the amount of digital content they want to see on the HUD. The systems feature four levels, from analog to augmented reality to an entirely virtual world.
Based on the images, you may wonder what is going on with the color schemes. Let me introduce you to the world premiere of full-color E Ink technology. I was astounded in Germany when modern-day artisans demonstrated the fully variable, multi-hued, and individually configurable exterior utilizing up to 32 color choices. The process includes ePaper film layered on the BMW i Vision, which in turn features 240 E Ink body segments to create endless pattern and color possibilities. And of course, the process is all digital to allow drivers to personalize their selections based on moments and moods. Today you may want to ride out in Jamaican flag colors; tomorrow may represent the World Cup champs from Argentina.
“A BMW lives by its unparalleled digital performance. BMW i Vision Dee is about perfect integration of virtual and physical experiences. Whoever excels at integrating the customer’s digital worlds into the vehicle at all levels will master the future of car-building,” said Frank Weber, member of the Board of Management of BMW AG responsible for Development.
A ceremonious beginning and ending in Las Vegas left us all with vicarious premonitions of what possibilities the future holds. New experiences for you and your friends beyond reality have come to fruition by way of Dee if you desire her advanced digital potentials. The BMW i Vision Dee is your portal into a virtual ecosphere with fresh lifestyle facets to simplify mobility through AI when merged with real driving encounters. As Jimmy Hendrix would say, “Are You Experienced?”

Maughan worked with a New Era designer to creatively curate the Lamar Valley colorway, making every detail and decision intentional. The overall hat tells a story and has underling meanings behind the cap’s undertones. The team logos are outlined in blue, signifying the river that flows through the valley.

Conclusion
Several websites provide information and guidance on business, money, and entrepreneurship. However, we have helped you narrow it down to the above ten. From this, you should get all that you need.
Every business needs an online presence, no matter the size of the company. Without a website, the likelihood of potential customers finding out about its products or services is slim to none. However, there are a few crucial steps to take before you start working on the actual site. Here are five important things to consider in advance.
Determine the main goal Generally, a company’s website is a space to provide information about its activity or an e-commerce platform. You must clearly state what the website does, whatever the case may be. Your future customers need to be able to figure out if you can give them what they’re looking for. Consider the specific user experience and journey to navigate your site before you start building it. Whatever the main goal or focus of your website, the visitor should be able to achieve it easily, and you should reinforce the goal as visitors navigate throughout the site.
Choose a domain name The domain name is one of the most crucial aspects. It’s the name of the website and the URL you’ll share with clients and promote on social media. It should be as memorable and as descriptive as possible. Try to keep it short and avoid numbers, acronyms, and abbreviations to prevent confusion. You also need to choose your TLD or top-level domain, which is what the website ends in, such as .com, org, or .net. Unconventional TLD names are becoming more popular. They can be based on location or type of company, for example, .law. The best option is still .com. When you choose a domain name, check if it’s available and buy it through a domain registrar. Make sure you check copyrights to avoid the risk of infringing on a protected name.
Choose a web host Website hosting companies provide a server to store website data for the public to access. You’ll probably have to choose an external party to host your website, as hosting your own can be an excessive expense for your small business. There are two routes to take depending on your budget. The cheaper one is shared web hosting. With this option, you’ll share a server with other websites. If you have the money, dedicated hosting is the go-to option. You will have a private server, and no other users will drag down your speed. Some web-building services include web hosting in their monthly packages. You might have heard of free website hosting, and while that option exists, the hosting provider will take other measures to monetize your presence, like putting banner ads on your site. Ask about your potential host’s reliability and server locations. Consider your potential customers’ chief location and how close the server is to it. A quality hosting service will make the tools available to show you how well they perform. You likely expect your business to grow in the future. You might need to upgrade or sign up with more than one provider to handle your operations and traffic. To determine your hosting needs accurately, consider how much traffic you can expect and choose the respective plan, including capacity.
Consider branding Your website represents your business, so considering its branding is paramount. It will attract customers and account for a big part of your returns. The branding of a website includes the logo, design, fonts, color schemes, tone, and overall message. The logo contributes to the identity of your business a great deal because it’s what visitors recognize. You can use a specialized website to help you create a logo or hire a graphic designer. Before you start building your website, consider what your business’s core message is. The website should reflect it. You need a tone that’s consistent with that core message. The fonts, design, and color schemes should complement the tone and message of your brand.
Security threats Your website can serve as a medium to infect customers with malware. Before you start working on the suite, consider how you can protect it. Don’t underestimate server-side security tools and web application firewall services; your business and its reputation might not survive a hack.
Lanre Idewu is a Nigerian American actor, producer, and social entrepreneur. He grew up on the south side of Chicago and majored in biochemistry with a minor in German and theater arts. Additionally, Lanre attended the University of Chicago School of Medicine.
There, he was drawn to the ability to heal and help through Film and Fitness. Today, he has become a celebrity fitness expert and on-air personality and is dedicated to positive programming in both fields. He has over 20 years of Exercise, Nutrition, and Personal Development. ”I run a lot,” says Lanre. This is a form of meditation and relaxation. Although, he notes that “what I’ve been working on most recently is sitting quietly.”
Joe Dispenza is a doctor and writer who has become essential in Lanre’s life. His books on silence and listening are wonderful for him: Joe Dispenza who I have been reading a lot about listening to a lot has taught me to be able to control my breath and just allow the energy to flow.”
Lanre Idewu is known for several well-known series like South Side (2019), Sherman’s Showcase (2019), and Arrested Development (2003). Additionally, he was the COO of Queen Nefertari Productions (QNP), a film and television production company. A fun fact is that through QNP, he was able to help launch Gersh’s Film Finance and Packaging division.
In 2010, Variety magazine named him a ‘Future Media Maven’ as COO. Lanre manages a multi-million-dollar film fund and equally focuses on analytical, creative, and visionary responsibilities. ”We’re bringing a new level of transparency to the deals we make and we’re demanding the same from everyone we choose to do business with,” he says, noting that the market is now strong for projects that require little capital.
He has worked on various film and television projects for FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS, ComedyCentral, Showtime, BET, E!, CW, iTunes, TF1, ZDF, Netflix, Magnolia Pictures, and more. Idewu produced the Cannes Film Festival “New Growth” and “Die Expats”.
Lanre has not only become the Vice President of The Geffen Playhouse Advisory Council but also a mentor to the NFL Player Association’s Pro Hollywood and ultimately a founding member of the Catalyst Board for the Sundance Film Festival. He is also a certified trainer and fitness model for the P90X fitness system.
‘’Believe in yourself as if you have to find a way to channel the noise and stay focused on what you want, not necessarily how things look right now,’’ says Lanre Idewu. Wellness, Mental Health, Justice, Women’s Empowerment, and Homelessness are the causes near and dear to his heart.
In new marketing campaign, Lexus shares its vision of an electric future
What will define the electrified future? Lexus believes that the future of electric vehicles will be versatile, anticipatory and centered on elevating the consumer’s driving and ownership experience. A new marketing campaign, called “Lexus Electrified,” shows how people are the inspiration behind the versatility of the Lexus electrified line of vehicles. The broadcast spot, “Like Attracts Like,” debuts today.
“When it comes to our guests’ mobility needs, we know that one size does not fit all. That’s why we created an electrified driving experience with a variety of powertrains that can cater to and elevate any lifestyle,” said Vinay Shahani, vice president, Lexus marketing. “With sophisticated style, impeccable craftsmanship and the support of our amazing nationwide dealer network, our electrified vehicles deliver an immersive luxury experience, inspired by our guests.”
Since the launch of the RX 400h in 2005, the world’s first luxury hybrid sport utility vehicle, Lexus has pioneered electrification in the luxury automotive market. Under its “Lexus Electrified” vision, Lexus aims to work toward carbon neutrality in a way that is accessible for every guest through a variety of powertrains that cater to their individual needs. Lexus will continue to add to its electrified portfolio of products which currently includes hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) and battery electric vehicles (BEV) to provide the quintessential luxury electrification experience that exceeds the needs and expectations of luxury auto buyers. And by 2035, Lexus aims to achieve 100% BEVs in all models globally.
“Like Attracts Like” brings to life the idea that people are the power behind every Lexus. A series of individuals on stages use electricity in different ways to fuel their interests. A band jams in a room. A tennis player hits balls fired by an electric ball machine. A dancer wears a light-up suit. Cables trailing down from each stage glow as a metaphor for human electricity generating the power behind Lexus innovation. The spot showcases four electrified Lexus vehicles – the RZ 450e, RX 500h, NX 450h+ and the Electrified Sport Concept.
As a part of the “Electrified” campaign, Lexus is partnering with The Atlantic as the exclusive automotive sponsor of “Progress” — a reporting project and live event series devoted to covering modern progress and the forces shaping a better future for all. This program features groundbreaking inventions that are moving the world forward, including Lexus’ lineup of electrified products. Lexus’ sponsorship kicked off in December with The Atlantic’s Progress Summit in Los Angeles, and continues through March with digital, custom content, social and print support.
“Like Attracts Like” will air on primetime, cable and sports. In addition to linear and streaming video, the campaign will be supported through digital, streaming audio, social, print and out-of-home media. For more information, visit www.lexus.com/electrified.
Whether you’re the master of road trips or simply spend a lot of time driving for work or any other purposes, being in the car for long periods can be a little stressful. Accidents happen all the time, and even the most experienced drivers can end up in emergency situations.
Being prepared for anything is important, especially when it comes to travel. There are a few key things that you can do before your trips, as well as during them, that will help you to feel calmer and more ready to handle whatever comes your way.
This article will detail how to be prepared for roadside emergencies when you’re travelling long distances or even just short trips!
Keep an Emergency Kit
Sometimes, we need to invest a little time and money into our own safety, and this is one of those instances. Make sure that your car has the necessary equipment to change a tire – a spare and a jack – and ensure that you’re well-versed in how to do it yourself should you get a puncture.
You can also invest in some extra items like a tire inflator and a set of jumper cables. These can come in handy when you least expect it. Further, keep a first aid kit, a spare charger, and some snacks in your car at all times.
Plan Your Trips Ahead
Knowing where you’re going and exactly how to get there can also be a great help. This could help prevent you from getting lost or even prepare you for potential issues like roadblocks, serious traffic or driving through unsafe areas that you’d rather avoid.
Being a thorough planner will also help you to save money on gas and other road trip related expenses. You’ll be able to calculate what you need to spend on gas and other travel-related expenses and enjoy your trip in a more relaxed way.
Be Confident on the Road
Driving with confidence is the key to safe and easy driving. Second-guessing yourself and hesitating when you need to make snap decisions could be your downfall and the reason you end up in a car accident rather than narrowly avoiding a crash.
If you’re an anxious driver, the best way to overcome your fears is by practising and proving to yourself that you can drive well. The more you drive, the better you’ll become at it and the more confident you will be!
Have a Lawyer on Speed Dial
Finally, understand that in any kind of car accident, there will be legal implications, so getting in touch with a lawyer can be critical. Knowing a lawyer that specialises in personal injury especially is a good idea.
Once an accident has occurred, you’ll need to speak to a legal professional almost immediately, so it’s wise to have someone you already know and trust ready to contact, rather than having to seek out a new lawyer in the midst of the chaos and stress you’ll be going through.
