The future of personal transportation – The first flying car is going on sale in 2015!
Building on its experience with the Transition® program, Terrafugia has begun feasibility studies of a four-seat, vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) plug-in hybrid-electric flying car, the TF-X™. “We do want to create a flying car that can be used by a much broader segment of the population than just the pilot’s communities today,” said Terrafugia CEO Carl Dietrich in a Reuters video report. According to Reuters the TFX has been designed in the first thought for pilots so that they are able to drive their plane home and park it there. But Terrafugia wants to open this innovation so that it can be used by the masses and not only by pilots. More information can be found on: http://tinyurl.com/o7r8eqw

Vectorform shows visionary sales application for Google Glass
Vectorform has become the first company in Germany to develop an AR vehicle exploration tool. Google Glass combines the actual car exploration experience with the digital world in order to offer prospective buyers a completely new way of seeing the BMW i8.
Around the vehicle are various “touch points” where Google Glass recognizes the contours of the car using Metaio 3D tracking technology. The first touch point demonstrates the new laser headlights by projecting virtual light beams right out of the car’s lamps. Subsequent touch points illuminate the inner workings of the chassis or illustrate drive-train components with an “X-ray” view. In addition, the aerodynamic shape of the vehicle is demonstrated using a virtual wind current that smoothly curves and swirls around the car’s bodywork. This “augmented reality” experience accompanies the buyer in a special way during the customer journey and delivers an innovative sales tool for an equally innovative vehicle.
