St0P !!!!


            Well it was early dis morning dat I was scanning thru all d 50 channels in ma ACV Cable TV doing d news hunt, that I came across something interesting …Well it was called 'Species next' to be exact "Samsung LED TV Species Next " and don't mistake it for a latest in the Species movie series featuring Gorgeous Alien beauty . Its was one interesting show on one of d greatest discovery by itself none other than the "Discovery Channel".
  
                I don't know if I should call it redoing the invention, but it was an amazing show featuring the advancement of how future transportation is gonna be for the next gen species . Well I would be surprised if there is someone reading this post who hasn't faced the so called stagnant life, yes exactly being in a traffic jam..:( I don't need to tell u how dreadful it is. With every passing day there are more number of vehicles hitting the road. There's more amount of fuel burning, more pollution, more traffic, more accidents n more people losing death n otherwise left injured.. Can u believe the numbers , its found that almost 2 million die on road and around 50 million left injured all around the earth.

                  Coming to the show ,I joined it when they were showing the worlds best parking lot n guess wat ,all dat happens in air. Yes its two 50 storey tall building used jus to park cars n SUV's. All this is happening at some place in Europe which I don't remember well and whole setup is called "AUTOSTADT". As the name its fully automated.It was built build to showcase the VW's (Volkswagen if u dint get it ). But l8r was modified for a better purpose. You jus drive in the car, lock it if u want n jus leave, rest is all done by the computer controlled robot. It automatically looks were there is space to park,Move the vehicle on a platform with rails n brings it to d heavy duty robot which takes it on to a lift n place it at the correct location. No headaches, its just all managed by the automated system. There's lot of sensors, almost 5000 in a building that senses stuff n feeds data into the automated system. This system handles around 100 cars an hour !! n well makes sure there's not even a single scratch on ur Swanky sports car.Each building can park upto 850 vehicles and just doesn't take up any ground space, how convenient. isn't it ? And no worries when u wanna take d car out bcoz they do it for you in the best processing time of 55 seconds. Hey datz pretty fast !
                 Next came an interesting revision to the rail-subway system and was implemented in the province of Tareno again I d Europe n is called VAL. It's an automatic subway rail within the city that takes ppl from one part to other, mostly working crowd at a faster speed wen they want .Guess wat VAL system is completely computer controlled .Dats like no driver for d VAL train and all of them controlled centrally. Right on time, no delays. Gets u wherever u want at the time they offer to do.If I should tell you more abt VAL each wheel runs on an electric motor and there's no problem even if one motor stops working, it's still moving. The wheels aren't iron again they have rubber instead. Gives more convenient n easier turns .You ll be surprised if u would come to know about the man power required to operate the VAL. Believe it, JUS 4 of them in all at a time, controlling an entire subway rail within the city running from east to west , north to south ,24X7 365 days n a day more if it's a leap year !! Just in front of their finger tips with a fully computerized system. Imagine the number of cars that can be reduced and a faster n fault tolerant system. We we in india wont really look 4wd to something lik dat bcoz railways feed the maximum numbr of stomachs. N tell me would they like to accept a system ,which means thousands would go jobless ! lol :P

                   There's lot more about the show which says about a hybrid tram 'on wheels' called the PHILEAS in Holland and seemed more like a bus to me, but runs in a specialized track or channel dey call it and special platforms for ppl to board n get down d PHILEAS n something which moves at like 100 miles per hour. They claim it reduced the publics usage of private vehicles lol !! and also the whole thing runs on 20% less gas than other buses, more efficient ah!!
Talking abt an infant " Mobileye Tech " a technology to identify humans and vechiles on road. It acts like a security measure fitted on the vehicles. The Chip placed on the vehicle has sensors dat detect standing n also moving ppl, vechiles and distinguish them accordingly. Not jus distinguish but display hw far they are to u and help you move safe. Definitely means more safety on road.
                   Its really good to see all these coming into use all around but I still wonder when our retina's will be lucky enuf to see them in use. Let the next generation enjoy ,if at all.

But meanwhile I think I ll conclude for now or else u mite jus click d cross button at d top-right . cya 4 nw and something more to tell u all
             " DRIVE SAFE AND KEEP UR SEAT BELTS ON !!"
Lol! Don't worry its not an AUTO show but jus to tell you " Safety First, Speed Next !! "
I think you had enuf of it. So pls do leave in your comments abt this..
I should be bak wit more interesting stuff for u to read, keep watching the space ..
Cheers n bye..!!
