Great idea
July 13th, 2010 |OK, I just got this great idea for a new car; I don’t know what its name will be yet, but this is a winner for sure. No windows. None. Only cameras. “Why?”, you may ask. Simple: windows mean that possible assailants can see you, point guns at you, conspire against you, etc. So, this thing is 100% metal. And what if a camera fails? Well, though unlikely, in such an event, explosive bolts under the chassis would fire, launching the vehicle ~200 meters into the air, and a multiply redundant camera system would determine a safe place to land, thus allowing the “driver” to exit unharmed. This vertical escape method could also be used in the few instants after a collision given an alternate software/firing configuration.
