7 fascinating technologies on future cars
Vehicles "look" for drivers, self-brake in an emergency situation or enter the parking lot without drivers . are some technologies that are about to become reality.
or not yet widely introduced to the public, but many modern technologies have been included in current models. More and more car makers are making advances from Silicon Valley and other technology firms to make driving more enjoyable and safer. Here are some of the most attractive features of future four-wheel vehicles.
1. Cars know 'look'
Cameras also play an important role in self-propelled vehicles.
People are no longer the only objects that know the road ahead. Vehicles are equipped with more sensors, especially cameras. Thanks to the help of computer software, they can identify signs, such as speed signs, and adjust.
Ford Motor Company offers speed limit features on several models for the European market, including Kuga, Edge, S-Max and Galaxy. The driver in the car sets the parameters to prevent speeding. Instead of braking, it limits the amount of fuel to the engine.
The camera also plays an important role in self-propelled vehicles, such as helping the car look around corners or discovering people and objects on the road. Meanwhile, the Cadillac SuperCruise uses cameras on the steering column to track the driver's eyes. When the driver does not look at the road for too long, it will flash to signal them to focus again.
2. Self-propelled vehicles
Self-driving cars are still a few years away from being able to roll on the road, but some manufacturers have introduced features to help drivers enjoy some future technology. Tesla's Autopilot feature automatically controls and automatically brakes. On some roads, they also distinguish the lanes and do not encroach on lanes. If the driver does not see pedestrians or other obstacles, the emergency braking system is automatically activated to stop the vehicle.
The car is guided by 8 cameras, 12 ultrasonic sensors and radar technology, often used on ships and airplanes, to determine the location and distance from objects. Premium models from Mercedes-Benz, General Motors and Volvo also offer similar systems.
Meanwhile, models such as Toyota Camry and Honda Civic are equipped with automatic parking distance.
3. Parking assistance
Just press the button on the key to guide the car at the stop.
Car companies want to eliminate the difficulty of parking. Some companies like Tesla and BMW feature self-parking without drivers in the car. The BMW 7 Series can enter narrow spaces while driving stands outside. They just need to press the key on the key to guide the car at the stop. Some Tesla cars were summoned with smartphones and slowly drove to the owner position. They are also synchronized with garage doors to access themselves.
4. Windscreen screen
One solution for the driver not to keep an eye on the road ahead is the display on the windshield. It helps them no longer have to find information elsewhere like smartphones and neglect to observe. These screens are quite popular among high-end brands like Jaguar, BMW and Audi.
5. Smartphone on the steering wheel
Smartphone is having more land to use martial arts on cars.
Smartphone is having more land to use martial arts on cars. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto became more popular, these infotainment systems were available on more than 600 models. They help you do whatever is still working on your smartphone right inside your car, such as accessing the app, calling through a voice assistant or reading a message aloud.
The driver also maps to the destination using the smartphone application before leaving home without typing the address on the car's computer. Meanwhile, CarPlay can forecast where you are coming from using your email address and messages.
6. Gasoline engine technology
Gas-powered engines are more efficient than ever, but when electric cars prepare to replace gasoline engines, engineers find ways to take advantage of 150-year-old technology. Many car manufacturers want to perfect Homogenous Charge Compression Ignition, a method that helps gasoline engines operate as efficiently as diesel engines. Mazda engineers have designed a method that uses compressed air, 30% more efficient.
7. Launch Control
You might think that speeding up the car quickly is simple, just press the pedal to the floor, but it causes a lot of noise, the rear wheels spin around and it's hard to keep the wheels straight. That's why many cars like the Dodge Challenger Demon, Ford GT, Acura NSX and Lamborghini Aventador come equipped with something called 'Launch Control'.
The technology works by distributing as much energy as possible until the sensor detects when the wheel loses control on the road. The system keeps energy at the boundary between maximum speed and loss of control.
