Driving Aids for Older People

I couldn't find that it is actually out yet, but I read about an option that will be available in cars from General Motors. The technology is a new windshield that uses lasers, infrared sensors and a camera to help objects stand out that might go unnoticed.

The example they gave was during foggy conditions, a laser projects a blue line on the windshield that follows the edge of the road. It will be interesting to see how this develops. Maybe that those who are not so old could benefit from this technology as well.
