I notice it on some cars only. Is it for adaptive cruise control?
thanks

Yes, it's the radar thingy for the active cruise and crash guard.

It's a laser shooter for slow, meandering BMW drivers

Any idea why the rs6/rs7 has two lenses, one on left and one on right?
Does it have better radar or is it because it's adaptive cruise control is able to do up and down from 0mph?
Other thing I thought it might be was the night vision?

Yes - and triangulation of position of vehicle in front.

This item would be in the "four rings" badge.
