| 4. Dynamic rear wing from electroactive polymers-car stays on the road
While drastic reductions of car weight make car almost flying this wing most fit the individual case that create the slightest drag!More complex bendingness with overall computer control.Electroactive polymers do symetrical and asymmetrical actuation, are a new plastic materials that can contract substantially (up to 380% activation strain) from electricity, and have been used in facial muscles and arms of humanoid robots and to allow new robots to float, fly, swim or walk.The systems comprise one or more electroactive polymers that convert between electrical and mechanical energy. When a voltage is applied to electrodes contacting an electroactive polymer, the polymer deflects.Offer rapid responses (at millisecond levels) and operate in ambient conditions over long periods of time 
5. Component safety-no blind spots Weight reduction-no weight-No Blind spots anymore-By using a mathematical algorithm-the mirror acts like a disco ball-The difference in this instance is that the mirrors are so close, and so finely tuned, that light is refracted across a smooth surface at precisely controlled angles-increase the viewing angle from the 15 degrees we experience with standard driver's side mirrors to 45 degrees, all without distorting the image like a curved passenger side mirror 
6. Sound you can feel not just hear Weight reduction:instead of really big speakers and subwoofers(Rather than achieving the "feel" of the sound through volume, it does so simply through vibrations) Besides being a follow up to the 3, it's called 4D because the Vivitouch technology gives it a forth dimension.The applications of the technology have a big overlap with traditional vibration motors used today in phones, but Vivitouch does it completely different way. Rather than using motors, which are power hungry and imprecise, Vivitouch uses electroactive polymers that react when a current is applied to them. This means a faster response with less power draw. 
8 Virtual Screen Weight reduction: Reducing dashboard weight and mass, more entertainment and features, no push buttons anymore, if implemented in backseats entertainment for passengers (car diagnostic, navigation, clock, radio, watching movies, playing games, doing homework, internet browsing) 
9 Carbon Nanotube wires (CNTs) Weight reduction: good electricity conductor, weight one-tenth the weight of copper, are stronger and much flexible than copper equivalent (in car is from 15 to 28 kg of copper)  Directory: files files -> Answer True False 2 points Question 2 files -> Integer programming and game theory files -> 4 Integer Programming files -> Bpa vehicle Window Repair Scenario #1 task: Procure vehicle window relacement.
