Toyota Concept-i - Super unique concept car
The highlight of the Toyota Concept-i is not the ubiquitous touch screens, but the integrated artificial intelligence system called Yui.
 |
At the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2017, currently taking place in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, Toyota has unveiled a new car called Concept-i. According to Toyota, Concept-i shows the company's vision of the future of cars. |
 |
Concept-i is a product created by Toyota's CALTY Design Research Center in California, USA. The idea behind the Toyota Concept-i is to bring a new experience to users. |
 |
Similar to current concept cars, the Toyota Concept-i is also a self-driving car, developed around humans. |
 |
| The highlight of the Toyota Concept-i is its built-in artificial intelligence (AI) system called Yui, which can anticipate needs, improve the quality of daily life, or even inspire human imagination. |
 |
| According to Toyota, the Concept-i's powerful AI system can build "meaningful and humane" relationships with people. In other words, the Toyota Concept-i's AI system will learn and grow with the driver. Over time, Yui will learn the driver's habits, schedules, and favorite stops. |
 |
In addition, the AI system also exchanges important information with the driver and passengers sitting inside the car. The system uses light, sound and even touch to interact with the people sitting in the car. |
 |
The interior of the Toyota Concept-i is not filled with touchscreens as is typical, so the Toyota Concept-i only provides information when necessary. For example, a color-changing light under the passenger's feet will indicate when the car is running in normal and autonomous modes. |
 |
On the outside, the Toyota Concept-i looks like it came from the future. In fact, many people feel that the Toyota Concept-i should have been designed by Apple. |
 |
The body panels of the Toyota Concept-i are capable of displaying greetings to the driver and passengers as they approach the car. |
 |
Meanwhile, the rear of the car displays letters and signals if danger is detected. |
 |
The front end alone shows when the Toyota Concept-i is running in normal or self-driving mode. |
 |
Toyota has not yet revealed the Concept-i's powertrain. However, it is safe to assume that the Toyota Concept-i will use an electric motor. |
 |
Currently, the Toyota Concept-i is just a concept car and will most likely not be commercially produced. |
