The Autonomobile – a passengercentric, driverless car
From A Distinctive World:
The Autonomobile (ATNMBL) is a concept car is designed around passenger, rather than driver, experience with architectural styling, a lounge-like interior and fully glazed sides
Pretty, but impractical. Technical issues aside, it looks like there isn’t any forward-facing windows, and that’s a recipe for motion sickness for many people. Conceptual design is all very well and good, but can’t it take reality into consideration?
Yeah like MadGastronomer said no forward facing windows I’d feel ill after a while.
The major question is though what controls it? A computer? What about cars not fitted with all the gadgetry? Then the inevitable hacking and such of these things. Just seems silly. More silly than an internal combustion engine powered car which in itself is very silly (a metal box powered by explosions…)
