Very interesting, but not as technically amazing as the Cog video.
Also on the Honda news, I found it interesting that the new Accord for the UK will implement the first (that I know of) Auto-Pilot mode in a car. It uses two technologies to follow a road. The first being a camera control system that looks for a lane. And the second is a radar system that looks for obstacles or other cars and matches their speed.
I wonder when/if this stuff will come to the States?

something like that might actually give me a chance to be in a car by myself, going somewhere...

Sounds like freak accidents waiting to happen:
"But officer, the car crashed, not me... yes I was sleeping at the wheel, but it has an autopilot function that drives for me... no that's not a load of bullcrap, I'm serious... no I can't show you because my car is in pieces... IT'S THE CAR'S FAULT NOT MINE!"
this sounds really weird

I've seen that one before, which is what Neo was referring to as "the cog"
The guys who made that commercial actually have a full length video out of something like that. I was looking for it a while back but never was able to come across it. Now I don't even recall what the name of it was... hmm
