Welcome All! The Automotive Corner is here! Concept Mini Crossman With 3D Laser Globe!
Monday, September 15th, 2008And Just check out what I found today, Apparently there is a new techy little feature in the new Mini Crossman. Now while the Crossman is still quite the small vehicle(hense mini right)but on the inside there’s a giant 3D globe that utilizes laser technology to integrate all of the car’s entertainment, communication and navigational features into a touchscreen interface!! The globe splits into hemispheres allowing the driver to check out a map while a passengers surfs the web. A laser projection will display the information, in both text and graphic form, and at multiple layers within the globe. The driver can use this feature by touching the globe itself or by using the trackball located on the steering wheel. While this is still very much a concept, im sure they have the technology to do this or it wouldn’t be brought to a concept base at all right?
all I can think about this is BADASS, But is this a trend for new vehicles? The next photo is a photo of the nav system from the new Ford Explorer America Concept from the article I did a few months back.
3D Globe Navs for all? Well see if this continues.
Thanks for coming by today! stay tuned for The Mod Shop coming this thursday!
