For the future year 2059 the concept of mini driverless car by Dominic Wilcox.
The dream of designer Dominic Wilcox “Driverless Sleeper Car of the Future,” displayed at Designjunction as a part of the London Design Festival. The project was a part of the Dezeen and Mini Frontiers exhibition which based on the future of mobility. Dominic has a future view that by the year 2059. He thinks self-automated driverless cars will be much safer than the manual cars driven by drivers. Therefore, in his concept he didn’t put any safety equipment like roll-cage or airbags inside the Mini car as the car will be a living/sleeping space on wheels. He wrote on his website, “I propose that in the year 2059 it will be statistically proven that it is safer to ride in a computer controlled driverless car or vehical than to ride in a human driven vehicle.”
“This means that driverless car will not require the typical safety equipment we see on current cars such as air bags and bumpers. We will simply require a living space on wheels. The technology of the motor and driverless, automated navigation system will be held within a standard, modular chassis, on to which any living space shell can be built.”
For this reason, he designed the driverless habitat vehicle inspired by the art nouveau. This prototype single person
driverless car has a colorful stained glass wheels that invites the passengers inside it to get cozy. In fact, the car concept known as Stained Glass Driverless Sleeper Car of the Future isn’t just the perfect size and shape for the single traveler— the unique concept of automobile was made for snoozing, crafted with a twin-sized mattress in mind.
Wilcox said the stained glass epiphany came to him after a visit to Durham Cathedral. “The stained glass element also developed out of my interest in taking what I admire from objects of the past and merging it with technology of the future, to create a new vision,” he wrote. “I … was struck by the wonderful stained glass windows there. I wanted to bring the visual experience I had in the cathedral into a new, contemporary, three dimensional forms.”
The car is a whimsical and beautiful, but like all dreams, it is not easy to be come true. Why think of a design that effectively blocks out the natural scenery, even if it’s a sleeper car? Why to choose beautiful something as stained glass if the passenger will sleep on it? Why to make a sleeper car, which would be used more at night, when stained glass come alive at daylight? Apparently Wilcox dreamed up a future in which one can sleep on the way to next destination like a passenger on an airplane includes the auto theft eradication and the stained-glass ubiquity, shatterproof windows.
