Top 5 car technologies

Below are the top 5 advanced car technologies :

1) Driver Override Systems

What if a car could be able to make its own decisions and override the driver’s command? Wouldn’t it be awesome, especially when you make a wrong judgment? By 2020, cars will be capable of hitting brakes- even when the driver has the gas pedal floored. The kind of sensor technology integrated into most vehicles today will be capable of feeding the car with the final command. It is possible to doze off or make wrong judgments on the road, making a driver override system quite a beneficial technology.

2) Autonomous Vehicle

This relates to driver overrides. However, in this case, autonomous vehicle technology is capable of assuming full control of the car. By 2020, we will have cars capable of controlling themselves without human oversight but in certain circumstances. Why? Because it might take more than five years before a vehicle can drive itself anywhere- even in the rural areas. Some of the roads in remote areas are not connected to Google Maps, which will, therefore, make it hard for autonomous vehicles to move around.

3) Biometric Vehicle Access

The automotive industry has experienced quite a change, especially in how we access or power up our cars. We have seen a shift from keys to keyless entry and the latest key-fob-less entry. In 2020, individuals will be able to unlock or start their cars with a touch of a finger. Sounds a lot like the latest mobile phone security technology, right? Well, it should, because the criterion of functionality is the same. You will only be required to open the back door or your boot with a touch of a finger.

4) Active Heads-Up Display (HUD)

From washed-out green digits display to the current Heads-Up Display, this type of technology has come a long way and is projected to advance even further. By 2020, active HUD will be capable of displaying vibrant images, highlights, and navigation to car owners through their windows or windshield. It will not only enhance mobility but also ease of use.

5) Comprehensive Tracking

One of the biggest concerns for car owners is insurance. The majority of insurance companies charge a fixed rate- regardless of whether you drive a lot or not. This year, we will get to enjoy a comprehensive car tracking technology that will be capable of monitoring your car’s movement. Car owners will be able to pay for insurance based on the movement of their cars.
