    Based on the manufacturer's name, I was expecting it to provide a detailed view of the driver's lower GI tract, and alert them if any polyps are approaching.

    that does have some pretty cool applications. I say put it in Formula 1 cars with that approaching vehicle speed indication program.


    Watch the lead driver actually take some risks when he sees the #2 car start flashing red in his rearview when it starts to approach above a certain speed.

    @ThreeLitre: No, Kimi needs it so he can be alerted when Lewis doesn't see the red light at the end of the pit lane.

    In the future, human beings will find a cure for ADD in gratuitous/superfluous displays of information overlaid on everything. There's no need to know the exact speed of oncoming cars as opposed to simply being able to see them, how many occupants are inside, which one has a pregnant lady and which one is filled with militant Mormon separatists of the future. I do, however, want to see one that can detect a bus full of zombies, or even a little novelty sword to hang from my rear view mirror that will glow blue if an Orc or a Scientologist drive too closely. THESE would be useful.

    @Lite: does not like fishsticks...: That will require some sort of 3D holographic mapping tool a la Nebuchadnezzar when sentinels were nearby.

    @Kaiser-Machead: True, one cannot just merely count upon Neo's "malfunctioning sentinal" karma always being around to save the day.


    But, if you're going to resort to 3D holographic mapping you should also include shortest route to a McRib.

    Yes, because I want to be driving home on a lonely spooky highway only to look up and see a glowing pair of eyes in my rear view mirror after I speed past the guy with the hook for a hand...
