Latest Findings in the Car Technology Make Driving Reliable and More Enjoyable

Technology in motoring has continued to advance over time as technocrats focus on making your driving reliable and more enjoyable. The findings are taking controls from the conventional pressing of buttons or using displays to creating response in a manner that makes you feel the results.

Gesture control
This technology has been under research and proven to be highly effective. It is a prototype technology that incorporates sensors made of infrared lights on the dashboard to note movements that are predetermined. These gestures include head tilt, winking, bending, putting the phone on the ear, raising or lowering the palm and other movements to correspond to a number of commands for controlling sat-nav, stereo, and even Bluetooth. These commands are also used in controlling the features of a car such as ventilation and heating.

The prototype technology is clever and will respond and create the right environment to reduce the need of taking away concentration from the road. For example, it will pick up expressions such as winking to turn your car stereo on or off automatically. However, just like current technologies, gesture control can also be confused by complex expressions or a combination of many gestures.

Haptic Feedback
This technology has been in the market for some time especially in mobile telephony. The technology involves a release of messages in a manner and form that you will understand them without having to take your hands off the steering wheel or even focusing your mind away. The new findings on haptic technologies include high frequency type of vibrations on the steering wheel or seat base indicating you are straying off the lane.

Safety first technologies
Most road accidents are caused by the driver’s shift of focus to control different things in the dashboard. Safety first technologies are some of the latest findings that focus on allowing driver to give commands without losing concentration. They also communicate back using sound and texts to alert the driver of dangers ahead. For example, the car will send the driver a message or sound warning him of a crash if the car is traveling too fast. The technology is customized and will even stop your car to avoid crashing. It is very advanced and will even warn you when there are other accidents that have occurred ahead on the road you are using.

The new Pandora
Many applications in use on cars are as good as what they can access. This usefulness can be curtailed when internet connectivity is limited. Latest findings indicate that most of the new cars that are going to be released to the market will have internet connection. This will revolutionize the onboard entertainment. Pandora presents the driver and others onboard with a new way for entertainment and access to social networks such as twitter. You can configure stations for music, preferred musicians albums, latest music and other entertainment applications online.
If you are traveling with your family and children want to watch cartoon or latest movies from the back seat, the new Pandora is perhaps the best. The technology is likely to redefine the way people select cars because they want greater entertainment when at home, traveling and even away.
