self parking system

It is amazing how modern automobile technology is progressing at a pace which might soon culminate in a day when a car drives, brakes, parks and moves endlessly with you being just a passenger. While it is not that I would enjoy something like that but it would still be very useful and in all reality eliminate many problems and also save many precious lives. This kind of technology might be all the more useful for drivers at night and it takes away the fatigue factor completely.

Lexus’ new technology ensures that you would not have to worry about parking once again. First developed for the 2007 luxury models and developed into the 2008 ones, the nice little system allows the user to select where he wishes to park the car using a touch screen, and just let the car do it. A small camera on the back allows you to see behind the rear of the car which means the car can park perfectly without crashing into the back. The system is one of the simplest ones I have seen in a long time and I mean that as a compliment to the makers.

The technology is so simple that it could be used even by kids if needed. It is nothing beyond simple camera work and a touch of your finger. This should surely sell well across the globe and avoid those silly and petty cases in the court. It is very accurate, and assuming you set it up correctly it will work every time. However you do need a parking space that is 4ft longer than the car and that is about the only blemish it carries. So the car that drives itself is surely not a long way away at this rate.
