It transmits the exact location of the vehicle and other data, such as the make of the  car , and establishes a voice connection ...

Attempt To Convert Prof Hawking’s Brainwaves Into Speech An American scientist is to unveil details of work on the brain patterns of Prof Stephen Hawking which he says could help safeguard the physicist’s ability to communicate. Prof Philip Low said he eventually hoped to allow Prof Hawking to “write” words with his brain as an alternative to his current speech system which interprets cheek muscle movements. Prof Low said the innovation would avert the risk of locked-in syndrome. Intel is working on an alternative. Prof Hawking was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 1963. In the 1980s he was able to use slight thumb movements to move a computer cursor to write sentences. His condition later worsened and he had to switch to a system which detects movements in his right cheek through an infrared sensor attached to his glasses which measures changes in light. Because the nerves in his face continue to deteriorate his rate of  speech  has slowed t...
