    Designers Create iQ Font With Tiny Toyota, Custom Software

    Designers Pierre And Damien strapped professional race car driver Stef van Campenhoudt in an iQ car, set him loose beneath a camera and custom software built by Zach Lieberman, and then proceeded to create a faster take on fonts. Updated.

    The camera tracks four points on the corners of the Toyota iQ by way of colorful stickers. The camera above, mounted to a crane, takes those points and delivers them to software that creates the shapes, punctuation and all-important letters and numbers that make up a font.

    You can actually download this font here, although we doubt it will make you type faster or anything. It was only a Smart Toyota, after all (although I was personally amazed this kind of car could drive like that).

    Updated: Ugh. That's a Toyota. Sorry to all you Smart car owners out there. [Vimeo - Thanks, Tom]
