Car Technologies of the Future (2020-2030)

In this age of great technological innovation, everything cars of the future will soon be real. It seems that the cars that we have only recently seen in science fiction films will soon get into the service station. And one can easily assume that in the next few years, in the period 2020 – 2030, these cars of the future will already become a reality and accessible to ordinary consumers.

In this situation, we must all be ready for this and know and car technology of the futurewhich are based on the so-called Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS).

What technologies use cars of the future?

For cars of the future, advanced technologies have been developedsuch as Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and Big Date. This, in particular, gives way to Intelligent Transport Systems, which are able to turn ordinary cars into smart cars.

Intelligent Transport Systems provide a level of automation and information processing that allows cars to even move independently (without a driver).

For example, an interesting model - the prototype Rolls-Royce Vision 100 was designed without front seats and a steering wheel. Conversely, the car has built-in artificial intelligence, the call of Eleanor, who works as a virtual assistant to the driver.

Various subtypes AIs are an integral part of all cars of the future. Starting from Natural Language Processing (NLP), which provides interaction with virtual driver assistants, to Computer Vision, which allows the car to identify objects that are around (other vehicles, people, traffic signs, etc.).

On the other hand, IoT gives the cars of the future unprecedented access to digital information. This technology, with the help of several sensors and cameras, allows the car to connect and exchange data with other devices related to traffic (other vehicles, traffic lights, smart streets, etc.).

In addition, there are technologies like LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging). This system is based on the use of laser sensors located at the top of the car, which scan 360 ° around the car. This allows the car to perform a three-dimensional projection of the terrain in which it is located and the objects that surround it.

Although all of these technologies have already been implemented over the past few years, it is expected that in the future, cars will use new, even better versions, and will be much more powerful and economical.

What are the features of cars of the future?

Some of the main car features of the futurethat all motorists should know:

  • Zero emissions. All cars of the future will have 0 emissions and will already work using electric motors or hydrogen systems.
  • More space. They will not have large mechanisms of an internal combustion engine. In the future, cars will use all this space in interior design, for the convenience of passengers.
  • Maximum safety. Intelligent Transport Systems will be installed in the cars of the future have the following advantages:
    • Maintaining safe distances with other objects while they are moving.
    • Auto stop.
    • Self parking.
  • Delegation of management. Many models of cars of the future will be able to drive autonomously or delegate reference. This will be possible thanks to systems such as Tesla Autopilot, an effective alternative Lidar systems. So far, vehicles that use the most advanced technology are reaching level 4 autonomy, but it is expected that between 2020 and 2030 they will reach level 5.
  • Information transfer... As we mentioned, in the future, cars will be able to communicate with multiple devices. For example, brands such as BMW, Ford, Honda and Volkswagen are in the process of testing systems for vehicles, for communication with traffic lights, and other types of communication and information exchange, such as Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure ( V2I).

In addition, major brands, traditionally, are not the only ones that develop cars of the futurebut, also, some younger brands like Tesla and even brands that were not connected with the production of cars like Google (Waymo), Uber and Apple do it also. This means that, soon, we will see on the roads, cars and mechanisms, truly innovative, amazing and fascinating.
