The Japanese are known for their urge to create very unusual things. And often their creative ideas look very dignified. Like you, for example, unmanned vehicle that can communicate with passengers to move independently around the city, and which, in addition, has a function of augmented reality? And yet it is not the imagination of designers, and not even a concept, and it is ready to launch a product developed by engineers from major companies Sony and .
A Joint development of Sony and Yamaha at the moment is called SC-1 Sociable Cart and the product is in development already in 2017. Then the project was just a concept Sony was not clear until the end how it will come out in the end. To help Japanese companies came representatives of Yamaha, which provided production facilities and some private practices in order to improve the concept and bring it to production.
Funny thing: initially, Sociable Cart was positioned as a «smart» Golf cart and had to be used, respectively, on Golf courses. Now the positioning of the car was changed (though in Japanese Golf courses car still will appear). Unlike the original concept, van SC-1 has room for five passengers (instead of the original three) and a good time Autonomous work from batteries. Other improvements include located inside the car and outside.
«Square» design of the van, not everyone will have to taste. But in our opinion, it looks very cute.
Inside the car will be installed 49-inch 4K monitor with elements of augmented reality with the controls, and the outside four 55-inch 4K display with built-in algorithms that will demonstrate to passers-by advertising, focusing on their age, sex and several other parameters. Also inside the car be free to connect to the Internet (for example, to read the latest news ). The most interesting part lies in the fact that the SC-1 as you can see, there are no Windows. Many image sensors instead capture the surrounding landscape and broadcast it on the monitor installed inside, on top of applying for more information. Meanwhile, a car suitable not only for advertising. Augmented reality can display the route of a virtual card, interesting facts about the area, and indeed be a very interesting and technologically advanced tour guide for travelers.
As for handling, the car is able to move independently due to the system «deep analysis of the traffic situation and machine learning». Maximum declared moving speed is 19 miles per hour. In addition, at any time, the operator may take control in order to operate the machine remotely. Sociable Cart is planned for March 2020. The first batch will be available to visitors to amusement parks and various tourist routes. On the value of the car at the moment nothing is known.
