14 Oct 2019|1,476 views
Toyota has unveiled the LQ, a concept vehicle that leverages advanced technology to build an emotional bond between car and driver.
The AI can engage with the driver using interactive voice communications, in-seat functions, in-vehicle illumination, air conditioning, fragrances and other human-machine interactions.
Yui can also select and play music based on the driving environment and provide real-time information on topics of interest to the driver.
The LQ uses the roof and floor mat areas as an intuitive communications platform to share information between the vehicle and passengers. Embedded lighting displays different colours to indicate automated or manual driving mode, and lights up different foot wells to indicate which passenger Yui is addressing.
The concept car is also equipped with a Society of Automotive Engineers Level Four equivalent automated driving function.
Driving automation also eliminates the need to search for parking spaces by automatically driving between a drop-off spot and an assigned parking space in nearby parking lot, improving accessibility for those with mobility limitations or anyone who has difficulty parking. The system also maximises space in the parking lot by reducing clearance between adjacent vehicles to 20cm.
