Currently, our cars are the dumbest of the gadgets we interface with, and hopefully, manufacturers will bring some of the technological sophistication that already exists in luxury sedans into the models for the masses. Even currently available technology can make our cars a million times smarter than they are today, and hopefully this segment will be less ignored in the future-especially as traffic congestion increases, in turn increasing the time we spend inside our cars. Global positioning systems (GPS) are already available in more expensive cars, so imagining this in every car is hardly far-fetched. This will enable your house CPU to connect to the central traffic server, using your predefined authentication, and inform your family of your whereabouts. It will also let your family contact you on your car’s communications system.
Your PDD could interface with your car, telling it where your next appointment is, and pinpoint your destination to the car’s GPS device. Satellite imagery could help your car automatically chart the fastest route to your destination, taking into consideration traffic and weather conditions.
