Ceatec, car of the future diagnose driver

The Japanese manufacturer Alps Electric presented on Ceatec a cockpit and dashboard equipped with sensors. A facial recognition system allows the driver to start the vehicle and a set of sensors perform multiple checks before and during the trip.

Need a key to open the future car, futile to adjust the seat to the driver's seat while the recorder is a quick health check of the driver. The vehicle of the future, as seen by the Japanese Alps Electric electronics group, has a dashboard and driver cabin equipped with sensors. The manufacturer has presented the Ceatec exhibition, which runs until October 5 at Makuhari Messe exhibition center near Tokyo.

• Eyes on the road

 There is no need to key because the car will have a facial recognition system. If the driver is not registered, it can not start it. And do not imagine being able to do either if your BAC does not allow you. A line sensor monitoring vital signs such as heartbeat. He will not let the driver from his physical condition does not allow him to drive safely.

 In the dashboard, an NFC sensor establishes the link between the computer system of the car and a smartphone, which in turn connects to the Internet. If during the journey, the driver must operate certain functions on the phone, he just has to move his hand. The presence of a gesture recognition system prevents the user to view the screen of the phone while driving, which incidentally, is prohibited by law in many countries.
