Technology Ticks

I hate driving lessons. They are hazardous to my health. "Check blind spot... Oi! CHECK BLIND SPOT!!!!" scream driving instructors.

I damn near ran into a car while he was screaming into my ear and making tut-tut noises.

Lousy instructors aside, Fujitsu found a way to make sure that you don't get blind-sided by other cars, motorcycles, bicycles or pedestrians.

They've used 4 mounted video cameras to capture images of the front, sides and back of the car. The images are processed and then converted into a 3D-rendering of traffic around the car. 

Couple it with a “transparent cockpit” and you’re on your way to piloting an EVA!
