"      Set to debut at next week&amp;#039;s New York International Auto Show, Land Rover&amp;#039;s Discovery Vision concept takes its name literally. The SUV uses a front-mounted camera to record the terrain and then displays a virtual rendering on a heads-up display mounted on the lower portion of the windshield. At a high angle of attack, when the view is ordinarily blocked by the vehicle&amp;#039;s sloping hood, this &amp;quot;Transparent Bonnet&amp;quot; feature lets the driver see and avoid obstacles like a potential oil-pan-puncturing rock. It also shows the the wheels&amp;#039; position in order to facilitate precise maneuvering.  While Land Rover&amp;#039;s entire lineup is capable of crossing the Serengeti or finding the source of the Nile, this technology is more likely to be used when nosing into a tight parking space. It also points to a future in which camera-based tech will improve driver visibility in all directions. Long gone are the days when one looked out the windshield of a Land Rover and just saw a tire bolted to the hood. Originally published at Road &amp;amp;amp; Track.
