Conference Call + Dinner
Lots of technical data Confirmed the nature of the project Want prototype demo at the end of the summer Bounced ideas off of Jay Learned about what GM research does Tried to learn as much about the field from Jay as possible
Brainstorming Ideas
- Report suspicious behavior on the road
- Traffic probe
- Report accidents
- Communication with police
- Intelligent cruise control/sensory of other cars on the road
- Sharable mp3s
- Good places to eat in the area
- smart parking meters
- help parallel parking
- roadtripping/following a friend's car
- parents able to check where child's car is
- "What's the speed limit?" button
- real space games, 2-player games from car-to-car
- highway games, multiple cars playing (consider: cheating, safety)
- "Beautify America" game, picking up litter
- super efficient parking structures
- ways to express road rage
- sharing cabs to lower cab fare
- predictive commute times
