On August 15, 2012 a member of the german government visited us to have her first autonomous ride. The summer tour of Dr. Annette Schavan (then Federal Minister of Education and Research) focused on innovation. “I want to get an exact picture in different regions of Germany, of contributions which science and research make to solving important questions for the future…”, Mrs Schavan summarized.

BrainDriver (2011)

After testing iPhone, iPad and an eye-tracking device as possible user interfaces to maneuver our research car named “MadeInGermany”, we also used Brain Power. MadeInGermany is controlled via the Emotiv EPOC Brain Machine Interface. The “BrainDriver” application is of course a demonstration and not roadworthy yet but on the long run human-machine interfaces like this could bare huge potential in combination with autonomous driving. For example when it comes to decide which way you want to take on a crossroad while the autonomous cab drives you home.
