Tabletele iPad sunt integrate de ceva vreme in consolele de bord si tetierele masinilor din intreaga lume, insa cei de la Toyota s-au gandit ca produsele Apple pot indeplini si ceva mai multe functii. In aceasta idee, cei de la Toyota au oferit o masina unui garaj specializat pe perosnalizarile masinilor, iar ei s-au gandit sa permita utilizatorilor sa controleze foarte multe aspecte ale masinii direct de pe tableta. Dupa cum puteti vedea din clipul video de mai sus, vorbim despre o Toyota 4Runner 2014 in care au fost integrate doua tablete iPad, iar cu ajutorul unei aplicatii speciale oricine din masina poate controla geamurile, treptele si alte cateva obiecte motorizate ale masinii.
The Oakley 4Runner has a camouflage-patterned vehicle wrap, LED lights and a rugged, metal roof rack designed to electronically lower and open to store two sets of skis at the press of an iPad button. The doors, music, windows and other interior features are controlled by three separate Apple iPads. To make sure the ordinary can range into the ridiculous, the ski-oriented vehicle also has a coffeemaker, a dryer for each ski glove and boot and a mountable grill in the cargo area. What really impresses is the enclosed ski storage unit atop the 4Runner. At the push of a button, the ski rack extended out from the unit then whirred some more as it lowered the skis down the side.
Ideea de a controla partial o masina folosind o tableta iPad este interesanta, in special daca utilizatorul poate lua tableta acasa si poate controla masina cand are nevoie, in rest putand sa o utilizeze ca orice alt produs al Apple.
