Whether you want a better view of your car's blind spots or want to keep better track of it's internal systems, it's worth checking out the latest Information and communications technology developments. Kim Mok-yeon shows us two new gadgets that could come in handy when you're on the road. There are many factors a driver has to consider behind the wheel. Sometimes, adjusting your rear-view mirror is not enough to check blind spots... and drivers often find themselves looking over their shoulders. As popularity grows for smart cars in Korea and overseas, a number of technologies are being developed to make driving easier. By looking at a video monitor, a driver will be able to see nearly every angle of the car's exterior with the help of high-definition cameras. "Many car accidents happen since the driver has to look at the rear-view and side mirrors to check blind spots. But with the help of camera technology such risks could definitely be reduced." Drivers can also check on the state of their car's equipment with their smartphone. A device that monitors interior vehicle information connects to the smartphone through wireless technology, making it easier for car owners to know how all systems are running. At this age of the Internet of Things, the potential of how these smart technologies could develop seems boundless. Kim Mok-yeon, Arirang News.
