NISSAN LAUNCHES IN LAS VEGAS TECHNOLOGY THAT ALLOWS CAR CONTROL WITH MIND
Nissan announced the results of research that will allow vehicles to interpret signals emitted by the brains of drivers, redefining the way people interact with their cars.The technology called 'Brain-to-Vehicle', or B2V, promises to accelerate the reaction time for drivers and will make cars adapt continuously to make driving experience ever more enjoyable.Nissan's B2V technology is the first of its kind in the world. The driver uses a device capable of capturing his brain activity, which is then analyzed by the autonomous systems. By anticipating the intended movement, the system can generate actions - such as turning the wheel or reducing the speed - in 0.2 to 0.5 seconds faster than the driver, always imperceptibly.Nissan will introduce the features of its unique technology at CES 2018 (Customer Eletronics Show), an innovation-focused fair that takes place in Las Vegas from January 9-12. The B2V is the latest breakthrough in Nissan's Intelligent Mobility area and reflects the company's efforts to transform the way cars are powered, driven and integrated into society."When most people think in autonomous direction, what comes to mind is a very impersonal vision of the future, in which humans cease to control machines. But B2V technology does exactly the opposite because it uses signals emitted by the human brain to make the driving experience more attractive and enjoyable, "said Nissan executive VP Daniele Schillaci. "Nissan's Intelligent Mobility is driving people to a better world by offering more autonomy, more electrification and more connectivity."

This unprecedented technology from Nissan is the result of research aimed at using the brain decoding technique to predict driver actions and detect discomforts:Prediction: By picking up signals that the driver's brain is about to initiate a movement - such as turning the wheel or stepping on the accelerator - driver assistance technology can start action more quickly. This can reduce reaction time and improve manual steering.Detection: When detecting and evaluating any driver discomfort, artificial intelligence can change the setting or driving style when in stand-alone mode.Among other possible uses are the adjustment of the vehicle's internal environment, as explained by Lucian Gheorghe, senior researcher for innovation at the Nissan Research Center in Japan, which is leading the B2V survey. Technology can, for example, use augmented reality to adjust what the driver sees and create a more relaxing environment."The potential applications of this technology are incredible," Gheorghe said. "This research will be a catalyst for more innovations in Nissan vehicles in the coming years."Nissan will have a simulator to demonstrate some features of this technology at CES, and Gheorghe will be available to answer questions. The Nissan exhibit will be at booth 5431 of the Las Vegas Convention Center's North Hall.
