Car Futures: New Technologies & Investment Opportunities in Tomorrow’s Automobiles
March 9, 2006

Event Sponsor: Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati

What emerging technologies, fuels and innovative designs are being readied for tomorrow's automobiles? Engineers are already testing artificial intelligence systems in next generation navigation systems that already use built-in laser and radar technology. These precision systems respond to traffic conditions by automatically braking and adjusting the speed of the vehicle without driver intervention. And advanced vehicle-to-vehicle communication has become the foundation for new collision avoidance systems. It’s a two-way street when it comes to how these technologies influence and drive new design ideas.

For unique look ahead at newtechnological prospects for cars, the VC Task Force has assembled apanel of leading automobile experts from the Silicon Valley labs of DaimlerChrysler Research, Volkswagen and Stanford.
