CES 2016
Unfortunately I am not getting to CES this year, which is a pain, as this years seems to be very much car orientated.
http://www.techradar.com/news/world-...to-see-1288771 Looks like a lot of new tech and ideas due in next few years. I have been following the Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) stuff for a while. It looks like Cadillac will be an early adopter. http://www.greencarcongress.com/2015...13-delphi.html http://delphi.com/media/media-releas...20technologies http://www.forbes.com/pictures/hdej4...vehicle-commu/ I imagine the next 3 series will have a lot of this tech fitted, with obviously the Gucci stuff going in the 5 series. If anyone is going have a look at the car stuff |

Supposed to be there but ill and idea of 18 hours on plane for 4 days just too much to contemplate. It's a great show and, as you say, lots of car stuff to have a look at.

One of the few technologies I'm totally uninterested in. I guess I just don't understand the use case. Why would I want to use my phone's applications whilst I'm driving?
Do agree CarPlay & Android Auto should be an option you can purchase if you want it. I expect they'll be available before too long. |

However, cars 'talking' to each other, sensing cars in vicinity braking, cars slowing or in heavy traffic, traffic lights. BMW are working on eye tracking and hand gesture - links in to the .50 cal machine guns. |
