Who in their right mind would want to be a passenger in an iPhone Controlled Car?! What if the battery dies or the iPhone crashes? Despite my obvious struggle to think of any logical reasons for this, looks like some academics at a German university think it has some merits. They’ve named it, of course, iDriver.
Check out the video below – I loved the Wario music at the end.
P.S. I thought of a good application for this – when you find a spider in your car but don’t know where it crawled to!!
