New Self Driving Cars Possible
January 24, 2011 11:59 AM You got to love hearing stories on how technology has just advanced over time, and here’s one of the best I’ve read yet. A new European technology has been developed that will actually allow you to eat, read, and sleep while driving, just like in I Robot with Will Smith. Here’s the full story.
According to the Huffington Post, Safe Road Trains for the Environment (SARTRE for short) is a new program that has partnered with Volvo that will install an advanced steering and sensory technology inside of cars to create a way to let cars drive themselves. The “road train” will be a line of cars that communicates with a leader car via Wi-Fi that will allow drivers in the other cars to spend little time paying attention to the road.
Sources say that this technology will be fully developed by 2021 and will increase fuel efficiency by as much as 20%.
All I can say is the future is going to be amazing! Wouldn’t you love a car that drove itself?
