I've watched loads of iX reviews on YouTube and I'm surprised nobody's highlighted what the real purpose of the internal selfie-camera is.
Now OK, this is only my opinion, but I suspect it's for post-crash investigation in future.
Loads of people talk about the iX having the capability for level 3 autonomous driving, but it isn't fully live yet, or allowed in all markets. I understand one key difference between level 2 / 2.5 and 3 is that the liability in an accident shifts from the driver to the manufacturer.
So, if the iX goes level 3 in future with a software update, manufacturers will surely want to know how the driver is behaving just prior to an accident to see if they were still alert and ready to take over.
Enter the internal selfie-camera?
Anyone else have this thought, or is it just me?
