Astoundingly, the new cutting-edge technology for automobile
safety happens to abandon the need for a steering wheel. Japanese automaker,
Nissan, created new features that are designed to prevent collisions as opposed
to typical safety features that accommodate safety during a collision. With
this new technology in hand, Nissan executives plan to eliminate deaths and
severe injuries involving Nissan vehicles by the year 2015. Taking a defensive driving course, online, with comedy can also help eliminate the risk accident and injury on the roadway.
The ‘camera and processing module’, mounted on the rear-view
mirror, detects the condition and direction of the roadway ahead then
communicates the data to the ‘steering angle actuator’ resulting in the
superlative driving performance. The vehicle nearly drives itself.
The “autonomous emergency steering” feature intends to
maneuver the vehicle to the left or right in order to avoid an accident when
the breaks are not capable to stop the vehicle in time. The technology is also
able to accurately detect and avoid unexpected debris and/or pedestrians.
When parking, Nissan also added a feature to distinguish if
the driver mistakenly presses the accelerator instead of the brake.
Nissan said that the ‘digital drive’ car will be the first
of its kind to be produced commercially, and they plan to initially install the
technology in the 2014 Infiniti G37S model.
