The Australian division of Lexus recently launched a glow-in-the-dark RC F coupe. The car also has the ability to track the driver’s pulse.

Driving reported that Lexus’s Australian division collaborated with Tricky Jigsaw, an advertising agency, and painted an RC F coupe with electroluminescent paint, allowing it illuminate in the dark. The paint also corresponded to several electronic sensors and a heart rate monitor to interpret the driver’s pulse.

During the day, the RC F has a silver tone. It is a luxury muscle car with a 5.0-liter V8 engine. The technology feature phosphorescent paint made by American paint expert Lumilor. The system was made by initially measuring and monitoring the heartbeat of the driver. The complex electrical systems of the Japanese sports car processed the information then spurred an electrical charge through the painted body panels. The user’s heartbeat is displayed along the car’s side.

“The heartbeat car also links to another key part of our brand – high performance vehicles – via our F brand, and the emotional response a person gets from a machine like the RC F coupe,” said Sean Hanly, chief executive of Lexus Australia, in a report by GT Spirit.

The new 467-horsepower glow-in-the-dark heart rate monitor is very unlikely to hit the market soon. Lexus Australia, creativy agency M&C Saatchi and Lumilor collaborated to create the specially designed car for publicity purposes. The vehicle is set to be unveiled over the weekend.

The modified RC F coupe is the first vehicle in the world to feature a heartbeat on its exterior, showing the link between man and advanced technology. The innovative paint coating will illuminate when the electrical charge runs through the material, thereby displaying the driver’s heartbeat using real-time animation sequence. Hanley said that the publicity display was aimed to showcase Lexus’ commitment to develop high performance Lexus F models.

"This latest concept follows other innovative projects we have developed this year including smart outdoor advertising billboards that respond to the car you're driving and our fantastic new Lexus hoverboard," Hanley said.

Hanley added that the activities present the new and bold approach that the company is behaving over various areas of the Lexus industry. He stated that regardless of the new technology that they present to the market, the foundation of Lexus is set on their commitment to provide the ultimate luxury customer experience.

More news and details regarding the Lexus RC F coupe are expected during the actual launch.
