Car renderings are undoubtedly predicting a revolutionary future as most designs are pointing to futuristic appearances and top-notch technologies that would change the auto world entirely. But here's something entirely new that caught our attention: the so-called Mercedes Benz Cyborg Sensation Vehicle concept made by designer Derek Chik Kin Ng.
Before jumping into description and specifications, you should know that this concept is projected to hit the market - or, better said, to fit the auto sector - in 2040.
As you can see in the adjacent photos, the concept is far from being a regular road vehicle. Besides the fact that it looks quite appealing, it provides enough room to accommodate two passengers and it can even handle off-road terrain if really needed.
The most interesting part is that the car has no steering wheel. Not even some pedals as the driver can control the car with the power of mind. Basically, the whole principle sounds quite feasible but implementing it on car could prove to be an incredibly difficult mission.
It all relies on a so-called Brain Computer Interface (BCI) that establishes the connection between the car and a specially-designed helmet for the driver. The brain impulses emitted by the driver are collected by the helmet and transmitted to the car that reacts accordingly. Obviously, technical details such as the engine to be fitted on the car are the least important in this case so no info available at this point.
Still, there's one major question that engineers must surely deal with: what if the driver thinks about something else than driving?
