Why do we call the Mercedes Benz Smart Car smart — when it’s really just small?
A truly smart car might be able to drive sideways, like the equally tiny, shape shifting EO Smart Connecting Car 2.
A research project from the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence, the EO 2 is designed for crowded cities where rush hours are nightmares and parking in nearly non-existent.
Though just a prototype, the EO 2 gives ample evidence of how some of its innovations could lead to truly smart, even flexible cars.
