The team «Formula 1» McLaren introduced the concept of MP4-X, which is controlled by the brain impulses. Future formulaic car rejects all kinds of technical limitations of the present. There is no limit. Engineering Solutions Technology Officer Applied Technologies is extremely unusual: cockpit augmented reality (the technology of mixing the real with the virtual), splashes, transforming air into plasma. The closed design of the car with a transparent hinged cover not only provides exceptional visibility, but also ensures the safety of the pilot in case if the car turned over, «will make the ears.»
The dashboard to match the rest. She — holographic. Infographics vividly inform about the lap time, or the dangerous approaching the opponent.
It's time to say about the steering wheel and pedals. But neither the one nor the other is not. No clean. Impulses to the brain do not need a steering wheel, gas, brake. The brain will beep helmet and a special kind of points in which the pilot will not see what is in front of his eyes, and that the broadcast cameras, secured around the perimeter of the car.
But that's not all. Remembering banned for «Formula 1» in 1982, «ground-effect» McLaren engineers plenty experimented with a form of bottom and «skirts». And as in MP4-X electric propulsion system, the vacant space under the bottom, it took special aerodynamic tunnels.
And the fuel tank in the concept either, as there is quite expected and the battery pack. They were replaced by an impressive number of the thinnest battery built right into the body of the monocoque. Electromagnetic induction and gas stations will not recharge them straight from the race track. And while the sun is in the sky, it will also fuel the energy of the car, which installed solar panels. Autonomous power supply system and sensors get tire wear, built-in wheels.
Now about the aerodynamic plumage MP4-X. It consists of electrodes, which in turns will transform the air around the wings of the plasma, «remembering» the event to continue to take shape.
And, of course, the engineer took care of countless advertising displays, the image which will be issued in accordance with the advertising contract or the People's Choice Award. It will be known to the audience, and the status of the body of the pilot. This will report to fiber and sensors suit rider. In case of emergency medical team to save time on survey pilot — a field report travmirovannh special lighting.
Recall that in February this year, the concept car of the future plans and team Ferrari. But — unlike McLaren — its concept as its creators claim to be in good agreement with the existing regulations.
