In the 4.0 era, many technology companies are becoming big losers in the auto industry such as Waymo, Alphabet, Mobileye or Tesla. Even parts manufacturers are approaching the car market in a smarter trend.
1. Smart headlights
The headlights on cars are designed to light up the road at night. But Koito Company (Japan) did not stop there, making a normal headlight, but brought sensors and artificial intelligence (AI) here.
It is meaningful not only to brighten the road but also to become an object to provide information for drivers to quickly react to situations on the road. Such as the ability to detect obstacles outside the lighting range, turn on signals to attract attention to road users, and observe blind spots, etc.
2. Car doors integrated with 5G technology
Car windows are used to separate the external and internal environments, and to cover for rain and noise. But now, Asahi Glass has introduced a new generation of windows integrated with 5G technology, with the ability to transmit signals and communicate between vehicles. This technology has been included in Toyota and Tesla's latest models.
3. Smart tires
Tires are an important component, helping the vehicle to be stable on the road. Without tires, there is nothing that can keep the car on the road. However, tires are also becoming smart with the ability to adapt to all road conditions.
Thanks to special sensors and technology, tires can change the surface structure to run on the road in dry conditions, on wet roads, or in showers. This also helps increase the safety of the vehicle's movement.
4. Car seats discovered driver sleepy
The seats on the vehicle are not only comfortable but also have the ability to detect the driver's condition, such as sleepiness, cardiovascular problems, fatigue, as well as many other things and will be adjusted depending on each situation to support the driver.
At a higher level, the chair also provides a suitable temperature range for the rider, and also the ability to defy noise when the rider is leaning firmly on the chair.
