HiTech Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Not impressed a joke just waiting for a self riding motorcycle .now that would impress me but would never want to trust it ..anyone who would trust any on road vehicle to drive you from a to z safely would be on a death wish or a fruit cake in my mind .I like having the controls in my hands . the cars of today are already dumbing down folks just like the cell phones ...but then again racers are crazy so I am game to ride in or on either just once if I survive the first one .

kgould Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 There will be an autonomous vehicle demonstration at SXSW this year. Aircraft have been flying for at least 30 years with flight control computers and there safety record is by far better than any human interactive mode of transportation. While some may seem this is far fetched technology it is not. The automotive/transportation industry is just know embracing the computer aided operation of vehicles. Understandably we are all resistant to change and have safety concerns with driver-less cars but its coming. 20 years from now will also be saying that it will be impossible to have flying cars but we all watched the Jetsons on Sunday morning. Dreamers of yesterday become tomorrow's innovators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arob Posted February 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 What concerns me about all this tech is how easy it seems to get hacked, information stolen etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
