Consumer Electronics Show 2017 in Las Vegas not only included fancy Cars but build with technology and the futuristic factor to it. Nowadays cars can have more technology in them than your average home. Whether it be electric power, in-car entertainment or self-driving/autonomous capabilities, modern cars are packed to the brim with tech. Few might not be the actual car that you will find on the roads but a concept/ prototypes of them.
Lets see what innovations have the car manufacturers come up with for 2017? Here are my favorites:
-
BMW Inside Future Concept
The i Future’s driver’s cockpit changes depending on the drive mode. Echo voice-assistant, and the new BMW HoloActive Touch, with fingers a few inches away from the screen/interface, elements of the screen’s output are projected holographically to the user’s fingertips. Touching, sliding, or otherwise interacting with those holographic menu choices and screens not only controls the interface, but also produces tactile feedback system adds up to the beauty of this car .

Bosch concept car
Bosch’s concept car packs a gesture control system that somehow provides haptic feedback. Hop into the car, and facial recognition will change the seat, mirror, HVAC and music settings to your tastes. There are screens for both driver and passenger, as well as a center stack that’s also a large collection of screens.
