This makes it possible for marketers to make, for example, advertising along the road (think billboards) more effective. It is also not crazy to think that if your car is connected to the internet and the environment, advertising will eventually also take place in the car.

For example: you drive past a billboard advertising McDonald's. You then receive a spoken message from this billboard, straight to your dashboard.

Example of Toyota
Toyota recently unveiled a car whose artificial intelligence (AI) can detect the driver's state and adapt the driving experience accordingly . The AI ​​scans your face with cameras and detects certain movements, such as yawning and scratching your face (both signs of fatigue).

If this is detected, the AI ​​will activate a built-in mechanism in your seat, causing the seat to vibrate or shake. This is not the new 4D seats that occasionally give you a fright, but a more anticipated shaking. In the future, this could lead to fewer drivers falling asleep at the wheel.

Artificial intelligence could help reduce the number of drivers who fall asleep at the wheel.

Driving becomes more fun and attractive with Concept-I
Toyota is also working on Concept-I . This is a switzerland whatsapp number system that should make driving more fun and attractive. This form of AI reads your mood with your expressions, actions and the tone of your voice. If Concept-I notices that the driver is overwhelmed or has a lot of stress, it can choose to take over the steering itself for a while. This should reduce the stress of the driver.

Concept-I can also make a suggestion to take a more pleasant or beautiful route, for example, if the driver experiences stress. Toyota wants to have the full concept worked out around 2020 and add it to the first test models.

Facebook & the car industry?
Toyota isn't alone in its efforts to evolve the auto industry. At the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, Facebook gave an extensive presentation on its vision and how it can use its data feeds to help design custom-made online cars.

Facebook also indicated that it does not produce cars itself, but it uses its own engineers to help the automotive industry develop new models.

2. Over-the-air updates (OTA)
As cars incorporate more technology with semi-autonomous functions, the amount of software required to operate these systems increases exponentially, such as automatic braking and parking, and their internet-connected 'infotainment' systems.
