There are cars that predict when other vehicles on the road are coming too close, or when a rabbit is about to jump in front of you. But soon, vehicles like the Nissan Altima may be able to read your mind. Yes, Nissan cars will soon be psychic.

Nissan is collaborating with École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) to research "Brain Machine Interface" (BMI) concepts. The idea allows disabled people to maneuver wheelchairs by thought transference. Nissan hopes to convert this project for use in cars, so that disabled drivers (and able bodied ones) can drive telepathically.

In the near future, cars might be able to predict a driver's next move. An interface with the vehicle's GPS will help set up upcoming turns. A device may also read your facial expressions or eye movement to see where you'd like to go next. A car that could prepare itself for the next maneuver will help in selecting correct speed and road positioning.

For now, you can test drive vehicles you drive with your hands at Connell Nissan located at 2850 Harbor Blvd. Costa Mesa, CA 92626.
