#uture cars will also ha%e its own manufacturing technologies. :ne of

the technologies coming up that will e e5tensi%ely used in the future will

e Platform technology. Now platform technology does not mean that

assemling the car on a platform. Platform is wider concept in itself. It is

New trends 6

Now new trends new concepts are immerging in fashion industry

architecture interior designing. People will e5pect these new trends to e

incorporated in the cars. People will also e5pect the car to represent the

national identity and the culture of country. Shape design ,olors and the

material of the cars will also %ery different in future according to pulic

demand their life styles. >%ery city car may ecome a lu5ury car ha%ing 1 st

class aircraft seat recliner dressing tale communication system humidorand refrigerator also. ?ehicle that can spot ostacles ahead read road signs

follow a path along a twisty road are /ey to our ultimate dream @cars that

dri%e themsel%es@ . The technology already e5ist that can help us to dri%e

.P.S. 6

1ststep towards the intelligent future cars is to /now where you are.

The loal positioning system 8.P.S9 uses satellites for precise location of

the oAects on the earth. These systems will e installed in e%ery future

%ehicle. This process has already een

started. Now PS are installed in cars

uses truc/s etc. This can help the dri%er

in many ways. The most important enefit

is we can ha%e a map of city and our

location in that. There no chance of losing

the trac/ or misguidance.

In future cars will ha%e more Information Technology then at our homes

or offices. ,ars ata processing power will ecome more important than its

horse power. :noard system in the cars will change the way we use our car.

Planning trips guiding through hea%y traffic using PS igital maps to

manage the range of atteries fuel cells. #uture car will ha%e etter

communication system higher security ad%anced entertainment systems

unimagined safety.

In Bapan this digital re%olution has already egun. " na%igation system

called as -:N>T is commonly installed in the Bapanese cars. 7sing the cars

cellular phone it contacts the ser%er that pro%ides huge amount of information

rele%ant to dri%ers. The information includes %ideos of the and condition of

road ahead at strategic pointes. -onet is 1ststep towards on oard P,.

-icrosoft has de%eloped an

"7T: P,. e can say it a 1st

reed of general purpose

computing platform for cars. It

offers us Cadio , player tape

email paging News ser%ices. It is

also connected to main ser%er

through the satellite. Now once

cars can tal/ to each other central computing system so cars will get aility

to manage themsel%es in traffic. They will /now where accidents are where

traffic is. So this aility ecomes priceless in o%ercrowded en%ironment.

In To/yo to /eep traffic in control the traffic police has installed 2$3

cameras 1!000 speed sensors which has costed around + million dollars.

This information is also con%eyed to onoard P,s of cars. #or test a

-ercedes 'en= To/yo is eDuipped with I.T.G.S. 8 Intelligent Traffic uidance

System9. It collects the data form the central processor. The dri%er has a large

screen of PS space na%igation in front of him. hen dri%er as/ a route from" to ' the PS gi%es the shortest route form " to ' assuming the traffic is

mo%ing freely. 'ut using I.T..S. car will download traffic information from the

control center. Now computer will calculate alternati%e route not shortest ut

Duic/est.

"d%ance frontlighting system 8"#S9

The technology allows light to turn into corner along with the %ehicle.

The enefits are to reduce the dri%er stress fatigue. This system is

de%eloped y part supplier ?isteyan. It has fi%e different lenses in each head

lamp creating a eam that can change its shape illuminating the different

areas of the road ahead. The shape of eam is controlled y speed and the

steering of car. hen the car accelerates the certain lamps are turn on to get

the %iew as far as possile as car slows down the system will adAust it to gi%e

roader %iew. This technology could soon ecome mandatory eDuipment on

all cars with a numer of manufactures li/e "udi -ercedes ?ol/swagen .

#errari and Porsche already opting to employ them on their latest cars.

-ost of the accidents occur at night. The system under de%elopment at

Baguar can ma/e things more easy. This technology allows the main eam

%isiility with out causing glare to other dri%ers. This system wor/s y using

the light nearer to infrared end of spectrum. This light is in%isile to human

eye ut not to system nearer to infrared camera. The images are proAected on

the screen in front of dri%er. So the dri%er can see the oAects which would

otherwise e hidden.

"cti%e suspension systems

Suspensions play a maAor role in a automoile. It supports the

%ehicle pro%ides directional control isolates the passengersEgoods from the

road disturances. the automoile industry is coming with new technology in

the %ehicles which will ma/e your ride more comfortale more safe and will

ring you pleasure. This new technology is called as acti%e suspensions.

"n acti%e suspension system has the capaility to adAust itself

continuously to changing road conditions. It FartificiallyF e5tends the designparameters of the system y constantly monitoring and adAusting itself

therey changing its character on an ongoing asis. "cti%e systems offer

continuously %ariale springing and damping forces using high power

actuators responding to road and di%er inputs to enhance and handling.

The ad%antages pro%ided y acti%e suspension system are

1. 7neDual weight distriution le%eling control

2. 'ody roll control

3. "ntiGdi%e control

4. "ntiGsDuat control

!. ,omfort 8 soft 9 ride mode

$. Sports 8firm9 ride mode

The acti%e suspensions systems are

certainly ad%antageous to the normally

used passi%e suspension systems though

they are costly. It increases the staility of

%ehicle it gi%es superior handling road

feel with responsi%eness and safety.

Intelligent Par/ing 'ra/e 8IP'9

hen traffic hits we cannot freely dri%e with our foot more often on the

ra/e than on the accelerator. ItHs in these situations that the eauty of the

Intelligent Par/ing 'ra/e 8IP'9 shines through. ith the push of a utton the

IP' o%errides the ra/e pedal and connects to the %ehicleHs antiGloc/ ra/e

system. This means that in traffic on a hill or e%en at a stop sign you can

ta/e your foot off the pedal and acti%ate the IP'.

:f course the IP' does not ta/e the place of a ra/e pedal. It wor/s

est in traffic and in emergency situations when you need to stop on a dime.

7sing electronics and not mechanics to ra/e the IP' has pro%en to stop the

%ehicle more Duic/ly than most other systems in place.

,urrently only found in lu5ury cars li/e the &Gseries '-s it is

estimated that the IP' will ecome mainstream in 200! when four million

cars will ma/e the change from handra/e to utton.

)aneG*eeping "ssist System 8)*"S9

The )*"S a safety measure that a%oids swer%ing. " camera

positioned inside the front window ta/es images of the gi%en lane a dri%er is

in. Then using this information the system adAusts the Inspires power

steering wheel accordingly gi%ing it Aust enough torDue to stay in the lane.

Thus the )*"S eases the stress of highway dri%ing allowing the dri%er

to tra%el in comfort while it ma/es minute adAustments to the %ehicleHs

direction.

the ris/ rises the system alerts the dri%er of oncoming danger and can e%en

assist in ra/ing. $

hen an accident in una%oidale the ,-S will increase passenger safety y

tightening seatelts and implement a preGcontact ra/ing system that reduces

speed efore impact. It is this type of safety feature that may ma/e families

turn to the onda Inspire in the coming years.

-aterial used in future cars

The fuel efficiency greatly depend on the weight of car. #uture cars will

made of %ery light materials to impro%e the mileage. Cesearch ha%e shown

that #or e%ery 100 pounds reduction in wt. mileage impro%es y 1mile per

gallon. 'ody and chassis are now will e made y aluminum that will reduce

the wt. of %ehicle y $!J. 'ut the prolem with the aluminum is it is %ery

costly and difficult to wor/ with. 'ut new solutions ha%e also come up. Now

the new cars will e uilt with thermo plastics. The ody is made y inAection

moulding. ifferent parts of ody are glued y super strong adhesi%e. Then

whole ody is dropped o%er chassis. The paint shop can also eliminated y

using colored plastics. This will also ring the new concept of recycling of

cars. The weight and cost of the %ehicle gets drastically reduced. These cars

are est suited for Indian and ,hinese mar/ets.

#utures #uels for future cars 6

Pollution is a measure concern in today


11/14

The solution came up with hyrid cars. yrid electric cars had

plus points of oth electric and gasoline cars. These car ha%e a motor and

any internal comustion engine. "t low speed motor dri%es the car and at

high speed internal comustion engines will not only dri%e the car ut also

recharge the atteries. It reDuires a smaller attery pac/. These cars are less

green ut they are more practical. The Toyota Priyus is the 1 st production

hyrid in the world.

The new reed of cars is also de%eloping running on hydrogen

cells. The car de%eloped y Toyota runs on electric motor not powered y

atteries ut y fuel cell. In fuel cell 2 hydrogen atom comine with an

:5ygen atom to produce electricity. The y product is only pure water.

The source of hydrogen may e from methanol reformer.
