Navigating busy two-lane highways can mean drivers often can't see the road for the cars and take a risk that can prove fatal when they attempt to overtake large vehicles like freight trucks.
Samsung wants to reduce that risk with the help of technology that allows drivers to virtually see through trucks ahead of them.
