Intelligent Car Technology From Japan
Japanese technology is undoubtedly some of the finest in the world and many countries try to imitate their developments as they are so revolutionary. They have also been big players in the car markets for a long time, with their products being respected for their build quality, usability and reliability. Now they are set to take the whole car industry by storm as one of their technology companies has been busy developing a new system that allows cars to actaully learn, and they are looking to sell it to all the big car manufacturers.
There is nothing revolutionary about a micro-chip in a car, they have in fact been used to control things like ABS and traction control for a long time now.A while ago new technology arrived on the scene that had self-monitoring abilities beyond just being able to tell how much fuel it had left or if a car door was left open. They could now report on tire pressures, chassis forces, deutsch connectors and even road surface conditions. The company in Japan known as Copal Electronics have taken the micro chip to the next level however and using new electrical components developed a car that can not only look after itself but can learn. If the car is driven around a corner in the wet at 30mph for example, and the rear wheels slide out, the car will note the road surface condition, speed, tire pressures, corning angle, weight of the car and many other factors and then make very subtle changes to things such as the AC fans speed so that the same does not happen again.
Because the technology learns as soon as you start driving the car, it will become accustomed to different drivers techniques and habits and will even be able to preempt mistakes, claim the inventors.We may not see it in everyday cars for a few years yet as it needs to be tested fully by manufacturers, but when it does arrive it is sure to make driving a whole lot easier.
