Ford has brought into prominence that our car could soon monitor our health at the same time even take over driving if we get ill otherwise fall asleep at the wheel.
The car manufacturing giant says it is even developing ‘car ambulances’ that contain an arrangement of medical sensors that could allow doctors to examine people far distant in space. In fact, it has previously tested early versions in India, as well as anticipates to see the sensor features on consumer cars as well. Vijay Sankaran, Ford’s Chief Technology Director to the VentureBeat conference in San Francisco mentioned that Health applications are something that will be an surprising opportunity in car. In India they are testing functions where doctors can use onboard electronics to take basic diagnostics and transmit them back to a central location. The vehicle becomes a sort of mobile ambulance on wheels.’The firm also says the health sensors will appear in everyday models. They have also thought about how can they help different kinds of conditions.'For instance, they have tested sensors that can tell when people are having act of seizing to safely to guide the course of parking them. Moreover, there are the limited number of too many drinks otherwise the drowsy purpose.

Furthermore, a spokesman for Ford said Ford is also developing smart seats, steering wheels along with seat belts accompanying sensors built in. ‘Infrared sensors on the steering wheel monitor the palms of a driver’s hands as well as his or her face looking for changes in temperature. A downward-looking infrared sensor under the steering column measures the cabin temperature to provide a baseline for comparing transformation in the driver’s temperature. The final sensor is embedded in the seat belt to estimate the value of the driver’s breathing rate. Mr Sankaran also told in advance that self driving cars, such as those being developed by Google, are unlikely to hit roads in the next decade in large numbers. The general understanding of self driving vehicles is on the minds of many, they have already been developing this to several years, they have adaptative cruise control, parking, these feature will be constantly introduced. They are paying consideration to Google as well as others. Self-sufficiency has to be something the consumer expresses a wish to obtain as well.
A truly self-reliant vehicle is very likely a number of years away, beyond a decade perhaps!
