Right, we've had a bash at the most pointless features thing.
What would you like to change in a modern car?
Which features would you most like to see replaced with something technically innovative and superior?
It doesn't have to be scientifically possible at this point, just ideas.
The sonic mirrors post has inspired me here.
How about something to replace the traditional windscreen wiper? OK, we have the beam wipers; you know, the flat things, which are arguably superior to the old fashioned wipers. But the principle of operation is just the same.
Sonic windscreen, anyone? Could this be achieved?
Or something else besides to replace that traditional wiper motor, arms and blades arrangements that we're all still using. There are chemical rain repellents out there by which some people swear. Others hate them.
Could we do something with electrostatic charges to repel water, perhaps? Preferably without electrocuting too many passing pedestrians. Then again, with refinement, it could be use to destroy insects in the same fashion.
Over to you.....
