New “Smart Box” (inside the car) Can Warn Drivers, Issue Tickets
IBM and United Arab Emirates University jointly developed a “smart box” telematics system that can warn drivers if they’re breaking the speed limit, record actions taken during an accident and even issue speeding tickets to offenders. The system combines cellular, GPS and voice recognition technologies to provide totalitarian control of the driving populus. Oh, and maybe games too.
