Not yet mentioned is that this system would require the driver to refocus their eyes on the flat plane of the mirror display, rather than maintaining distance focus which you can for a quick glance in a mirror (despite the reflection).

In other words, it's a step backwards considering all the effort expended on Heads-Up Displays which deliberately project at a distance.

This is one of the major elephants-in-the-room for Augmented Reality systems, and has yet to be solved properly, at least definitively (look up Magic Leap).

Unless we get AR glasses which can project variable-focus images directly onto our retinas, I take all this stuff with a huge pinch of salt...
