BMW has confirmed an added attraction of this year’s edition of the Consumer Electronic Show will be the debut of a conceptual version of i8 Spyder. Analysts though believe the Bavarian carmaker’s CES 2016 outing could mark the coming of age of the Spider concept that was first showcased four years ago.

While not many other i8 Spyder concept details are shared, Autocar has assumed that BMW could borrow the gesture control system from the 7-Series because what we see in the image does lack any sort of obvious interface. It allows the drivers and passengers to operate the infotainment system in a vehicle without making any contact with the display’s surface. The front passengers can navigate the display using hand gestures and motions, and they can confirm an action by hitting one of the AirTouch buttons that are concealed on the steering wheel and on the passenger-side door panel.

It’s able to work thanks to a bevy of sensors that are in the car’s interior that record hand movements in the area between the center console and interior mirror. Like the name suggests, the technology is about gesture control, and an advancement of the BMW Gesture Control offered in the sixth-gen BMW 7 Series (G11/G12). Simple confirmation selects the relevant menu item or activates an icon. The activation of the desired action in the infotainment system can be done simply by tapping this button once. The Munich-based auto maker promises AirTouch was designed with autonomous freeway driving in mind, but it’s keeping additional information under wraps.
