Most people are sure that humans only have five senses but that’s not entirely true taste touch smell sight and hearing aren’t the only ones we have scientists claim that people have between 9 and 20 senses in total these include thermoception the sense of warmth equilibrioception the sense of balance there’s also the sense of time although not everyone seems to have that last one we used to think that they were just eight different blood types but in reality there are over 30 known blood group systems here on the bright side
our favorite blood group is be positive get it for every pound of fat you gain you generate one mile of new blood vessels to supply oxygen and nutrients to your body your stomach produces a new lining every 6 days to avoid digesting itself nerve cells transmit 1,000 nerve impulses a second they travel between 1 and 268 m per hour our DNA contains 100,000 viruses scientists have discovered one that goes back 100 million years your body emits visible light you’re the brightest at 400 p.m.
and your glow is the least visible at 10:00 a.m. unfortunately this glowing is 1,000 times less intense than what your eyes can see sweat is mostly water mixed with proteins sugars ammonia and a lot of other stuff it even contains tiny amounts of Trace metals like copper zinc nickel iron and so on what makes sweat taste salty is the sodium it contains plus the more salt you eat the saltier your sweat is your body’s trying to get rid of the excess and the fastest way is to sweat it out if you walked 2 mph
you’d have to walk for 20 hours straight to lose one lb and it would take you 518 days and 8 hours to circle the equator ear wax isn’t actually wax it contains fat skin cells sweat and dirt your brain gets three times bigger over the first year of life and reaches its full maturity when you’re 25 60% of it is fat your brain generates around 23 watts of electrical power which is enough to run a small light bulb humans can’t really multitask your brain can’t perform more than one action at the same time it switches between
hem which doesn’t save time as you might think but increases the possibility you’ll do something wrong and makes the process longer when you have an exam to take or you’re at work trying to focus on an important task try chewing gum research showed it can help you stay concentrated for longer on tasks that require your full attention studies even say that it’s a better test Aid than caffeine there’s nothing special in the gum but the AC of chewing wakes your brain up the effect doesn’t
last long though just for 20 minutes minutes embryos develop fingerprints at 3 months your bones are four times harder than concrete the strongest bone in your body is the femur it can support up to 30 times the weight of a grown-up person even crazier is that our bones are made up of composite material meaning they’re both hard and elastic at the same time sunburn is the result of radiation exposure when your body’s natural defense mechanism gets overwhelmed trying to fight UV rays a toxic reaction occurs that results in
sunburn Goosebumps are an evolutionary reflex left over from our ancestors the release of adrenaline made their hair stand up and they look scarier to approaching Predators your body produces 1 to three pints of saliva every day it helps you digest food and fights off infections you also have a lot of bacteria in your mouth yeah that’s right the average amount of bacteria in a person’s mouth is almost the same as the number of people living on Earth that’s hard to digest each human has roughly 150,000 hairs on their head every strand
grows around 1/ half an inch per month if we added the growth from each hair it would measure the distance of 10 mi in just one year your hair is also a lot stronger than you think a single strand can hold 3 oz which is the weight of an apple if we combine the strength of all the hair on your head it could support the weight of two elephants heyy let’s try it the beating sound Your Heart Makes is the clap of valve leaflets opening and closing your heart doesn’t replicate itself cells unless you have
an injury your corneas are the only part of your body that don’t get blood they get oxygen directly through the air when you’re sitting or standing upright it’s easier for you to recall some positive memories that make you feel good some believe it’s because sitting up with your back flat boosts blood flow and your brain gets more oxygen which helps it function better the man who has the the deepest voice in the world and that’s definitely not me can produce sounds that humans including him can’t
hear at all but elephants can hear those sounds veins look blue because light has to go through layers of skin and fat to reach them your skin scatters a lot of the red portion of white light before it reflects the blood this leaves only the blue light to bounce back to your eyes what about the urge to re-watch your favorite movies or listen to your songs over and over you’re not alone this habit has some benefits for your mental health this Behavior eases your mind when people feel overwhelmed they’ll have less self-control and be
ess motivated to complete hard tasks you are drawn into the office’s first season again because when you watch listen or do something familiar you don’t have to spend the effort to monitor what you’re thinking so it’s a good way to have a quick mental reset here’s another feeling imagine you’re enjoying the Sun on set on a Terrace or at the top of the Eiffel Tower out of nowhere your inner voice Whispers what if I jump this isn’t coming from a darker State you know it’s just sort of
a feeling that appears when you’re high up there is a name for this the call of the Void or the high place phenomenon is a relatively new research topic but more studies are on the way Jim car’s great performance in The Truman Show is surely remembered did you know that The Truman Show delusion is an act ual thing the phenomenon is an issue related to cognitive neuropsychiatry people with this delusion believe that they’re being filmed and that the footage will be broadcasted for entertainment there was a time when
aluminum was more precious than gold I know it’s hard to believe we now wrap our sandwiches on this everyday item if we go back to the 19th century we would see aluminum as a hardto get element because it was literally hard to obtain until innovators found a way to extracted on large industrial scales then the rain of aluminum was over there are stories about the French ruler Napoleon theii having an aluminum cutlery set that he served food to his special guests we might as well talk about a time traveler party held in 2009 the
theoretical physicist Steven Hawking invited time travelers to hang out there was a huge Banner hung up with the words welcome Time Travelers no one showed up but maybe Travelers had prior engagements and that’s why they didn’t attend the party I swear I’m not crying because no one showed up to that awesome party I was just cutting an onion why do we burst into tears when we chop onions because of a particular enzyme is there a solution next time get some damp paper towel and put it on The Cutting Board
next to the onion the acidity that comes from the enzyme will go towards the wet paper instead of your eyes the ancient Egyptian civil calendar was quite similar to the one we use now they had 365 days divided into 12 months but instead of spreading a 31st to some months they would add those extra days to the end of the year now let’s turn our cameras to the Animal Kingdom again is there a benefit for zebras to have their fascinating pattern scientists asked this question too and experimented they dressed up
horses with zebra lookalike coats the coat was covering the whole body of the horses but their heads it turns out that zebra patterns repel flies scientists observe that flies only go for the heads of the animals and stay away from the horse [Music] bodies ants are known as hardworking animals even in the Tails that’s got a legit reflection in real life they can carry up to 20 times more weight than their own body weight these insects have other Noble qualities too if an ant gets seriously injured it’ll refuse treatment
from the colony’s paramedic ant the ant knows that it can’t make it so instead of wasting the colony’s resources this ant forces the paramedic ant to carry on without it camels can survive around 15 days without drinking water many people assume that they store water in their humps no humps are for food storage in the form of fat the water is kept in their bloodstream speaking of camels in some countries there’s a tradition to hold camel Beauty contests for instance a contest was held in the 2022 World Cup
in Qatar as an [Music] attraction you see a giant host fly in the house but it flees from your Ninja’s hands you might think that nature will take care of it in a couple of days but actually house flies can live for about a month or two the next fact is about an emergency on the road detachable car headrests can be used as an escape tool you can break the window with the headrests if you can’t leave the car by the doors you should wedge the headrest between the glass and the window sill aim a corner then you hit the headrest as hard as you
can to break the glass safely you might have to hit a couple of times but it eventually shatters don’t give up after one try are you a science fiction fan I have some good news for you then turns out that flying cars may be closer to us than we think and it’s not just because they look cool manufacturers are looking into developing such vehicles for practical reasons too for starters our standard rows are getting pretty congested as time goes by we’ll need some other means of transportation in the future to be able to cope with a
large number of vehicles you can find loads of flying car Concepts online for all preferences there’s one that looks like a giant drone and another one like a mini airplane the simplest designs just took a car and put Wings on it some cars will light up a snowflake on the dashboard every now and then in case you’re wondering it’s a sensor and a pretty important one too it shows the exterior ambient temperature it gets activated when there’s a road warning due to a sharp drop in temperature it
may sometimes even come with an audio warning or a message on your dashboard to inform you that the roads may be getting icy so you can either adapt the speed or change to the appropriate tires if necessary cars these days aren’t just adapted for the cold season they come with cool features to help out during the summer months too I’m talking about those neat sun visors check your car to see if it has this added bonus feature we know they twist to help the driver out even when they’re not driving
directly toward sunlight some visors can also extend so they can provide shade to a larger area if yours can’t extend there’s a simple solution buy a sun visor extender you can even find them online they work by being attached to your existing sunvisors or the windows for better shade coverage and visibility now your car might have another hidden feature well it’s technically not in the car but in its tires these days some cars come equipped with foam fill tires they were created to fix the problem of
air filled ones that often went flat why well because foam fill tires have many of the same benefits as air fill tires without the danger of leaks regular air fill tires can sometimes lose air over time even if there hasn’t been any damage in most cars with this feature the tires are not completely filled with either foam or air they have a mix of both a bonus of these modern tires is that they make the cars quieter generally electric cars make less noise but because of that foam they end up being as quiet as a cat some people like the
fact that they’re quiet While others prefer that classic screeching or rumbling that Vehicles make but even people who like the sound of regular engines might like the quietness of these new models because they are still very fast he hey I drive one and it’s fun you might have stumbled upon a button called AE it stands for automatic emergency braking and it’s a feature that uses sensors to detect if a collision is going to happen really soon when activated it will automatically apply the brakes to try and prevent
something bad from happening or make it less severe there are two types of aeb one that only works at slow speeds and one that works at all speeds if the car can’t be stopped completely the AE system will try to slow it down as much as possible to reduce the impact many cars now have systems that can warn you if someone is walking in front of you and can even automatically stop the vehicle to prevent an accident these systems use special sensors that can also detect bicycles and animals however a study found that these systems
don’t always work well especially at night even if your car comes equipped with this added feature it’s crucial to always pay attention while driving and not rely solely on these systems a little thing called Lane centering assist helps you stay in the middle of your lane when you’re driving on the highway it’s not a replacement for paying attention to the road either but it can help guide you through gentle curves you’ll still be in control of the car and can turn the wheel if you want to go in a different direction some
systems give you a lot of feedback While others are more subtle Lane centering assist can’t handle sharp turns and in most cars doesn’t work if you don’t have the cruise control on what’s also cool about this feature is that if it senses you’ve removed your hands from the wheel it’ll give you the warning to return to the correct driving position a lot of accidents can happen when you’re reversing your car like out of the supermarket parking lot Park sensors can help prevent these things
from happening by using radar or sound to detect things that the driver might not see from his position these sensors will make a noise or show a warning on the car screen to let the driver know something is there like another car or a person passing by if you’re planning to have a road trip you know how hard it is to adapt to various speed limits throughout the country traffic sign recognition is a technology that can help with that it allows you to know what the speed limit is on the road you’re driving on it uses
a camera to take pictures of traffic signs and display them on a screen in your car this can be helpful if the signs are hard to see or if you miss them while driving some cars with this technology can even change their speed automatically based on the signs they see is this safe to eat we sometimes see strange dots on our potatoes and wonder if we should just throw them away here are 10 eat or toss facts did you know that every year 119 billion pounds of food is wasted only in the United States to put it in
perspective this number means nearly 40% of all food in America is wasted people throw away food if they don’t have confidence in the ingredients they’re being cautious and it makes sense but what if the food is safe to eat and only looks weird the first item on the list is beef when it comes to meat people naturally get extra cautious imagine you buy some raw beef in the store later on you realize it’s got some brown spots if you toss it immediately hear me out this is normal in fact you can see brown layers
also inside the beef bright red color equals fresh meat huh not necessarily when the meat is first cut it’s maroon if the meat is quickly vacuum packaged it will keep that shade but if the meat is exposed to air for like 15 minutes then oxygen will cause a change in the look to Red the redness can turn brown when the biochemical reaction starts this can take a few hours workers at the grocery stores grind the meat several times a day to achieve that bright red color because they know consumers are cautious about Maroon looking beef if
the beef is wrapped in an oxygen permeable plastic it turns bright red after exposure to oxygen as long as the meat meat smells and feels freshh and if it’s been stored properly it should be safe to eat have you ever come across dark lines under a shrimp shell this one has a similar story to bee black lines on your shrimp’s flesh are related to a natural phenomenon they gradually occur after shrimps are taken from the water meat is exposed to oxygen and the Blackness gets more visible over time here also the
pattern of the animal itself can be a factor these black lines can be a naturally occurring discoloration on the shrimp think of cats they also have different color patterns but they’re the same in terms of species next time you can conduct a mini experiment in your kitchen put a couple of shrimps side by side and observe the mild differences in the shrimp’s color patterns shrimp will have a distinct bad odor when it’s no longer edible so if it smells and tastes fresh don’t toss it should you eat moldy
yogurt that green substance on the surface surface doesn’t look appealing at all but if you scoop it out you seem to have clean yogurt underneath the short answer is toss it the mold could be seen on the top only but it has probably gone deep not to mention that it’ll taste bad many molds are harmless but some produce toxic substances green mold is a type of penicilium does this word sound familiar that’s the same type of mold used in the antibiotic penicillin don’t get too excited eat moldy yogurt won’t magically cure
bacterial infections it only spoils your dairy product in 2013 there was an outbreak related to one line of yogurts the company handed the products to stores as usual after some time they received customer complaints they said that the yogurt looked like yogurt soup and tasted really old turns out that a type of fungus probably released some carbon dioxide it made the product fizzy and bloating the company and another independent scientist both said that this fungus in question wasn’t usually harmful to people yet more than 200 people reported
becoming affected by it so these sorts of things can still happen you should trust your spidey sense if you’ve ever been lucky enough to see some mold in a freshly opened package reach out to the manufacturer you’ll potentially save others from facing the same scenery by notifying the company about a systemic issue and preventing po potential future product waste plus the company probably wants to make amends and either reimburse your sad yogurt with a happy one or better they’ll give you coupons
for free products why do avocados sometimes have brown dots inside technically it’s edible but you might not want to eat it avocados are a source of many vitamins like C E K and B6 as well as healthy stuff like magnesium potassium and more the avoc avocado works hard to become such a health storage nutrients water and sugars wander around this fruit yes technically avocado is classified as a fruit anyway avocados have their own transport channels like veins these channels are normally invisible to us until something goes out of the ordinary
the avocado may be stored in twoo cold temperatures for a longer time than it should as a result the tissue cells might be weakened and start to deteriorate experts say that after the fruit is harvested if it stays in the refrigerator for a few weeks before you buy it vascular Browning can occur this phenomenon becomes visible after you keep the avocado at room temperature for a few days don’t be hard on yourself it’s not because of you so should you eat it or toss it you can eat the brown dotted avocados but you may want to
taste them first they might not taste good compared to a regular one if you look at it on the street you’ll think a fire hydrant is about 3 ft in height but the the actual size of the device used to provide water supply to Firefighters all over the world is twice as large that is if you count the rest of the hydrant which is hiding underground they’re mostly red and it’s not just a matter of Urban Design first of all they need to be a bright easily noticeable colors so firefighters can spot them fast when they need to the
choice of color depends on how much water the hydrant can hold it can sometimes vary depending on the location but here’s the breakdown a red fire hydrant can Splash 500 gallons of water per minute while an orange one at least 1,000 gallons green ones mostly process 1500 gallons of water per minute and the most plentiful ones colored blue can generally contain over 1,500 gallons hey bowling fans isn’t it super annoying when your bowling ball gets cracked turns out that most of them get damaged because of incorrect storage or
spikes in temperature now come on and face it since it’s already cracked a bit AR you curious what’s actually inside the bowling ball cuz I sure am let’s have a look they mostly make the inner core of the ball of powdered metal oxides like calcium or iron oxide then mix them with some resin and Catalyst to harden the whole mixture so that light bulb shape you now see inside of the ball is actually its heaviest part it also influences how your bowling ball rotates when going down the lane the same goes with spray paint cans
when you shake it it makes a weird noise but what is that thing in there it’s called a PE and it’s meant to hold the paint mixture in place and maintain its shape they generally make it out of plastic metal or ceramic it basically acts as a whisk to make sure your paint is well mixed together before you apply it to your surface of choice ever wondered how soda bottles keep that refreshing Fizz for that long well they have a little plastic ring fastened to the lid they place it there to keep the gas from escaping and
making the soda go flat even if you shake it around in your bag the whole day speaking of things we use on a hot summer’s day wait wait don’t put your baseball cap on just yet take a look at it for a minute and you’ll notice there’s a small button on the very top is it functional or is it just there for the sake of design way back when people started using Fabrics to cover their heads some say the button was actually functional since it’s on top of the cap where the fabric panels come together
the top button helps keep the cap Crown in one single piece now with recent Advan in Fabric and pattern design the button is more of an aesthetic feature it’s used to cover up the joint point of the fabric panels your cap might not have a button at all but don’t you think a cap actually looks better with one cotton pads have two sides and if you take the time to look at them carefully they’re actually different in texture just in case you’ve ever wondered why the textured side is for applying makeup
and the even side is for removing it bookworms this one is for you dust Jack jackets that come with a lot of hard cover books are not just meant to make your book look pretty they also double as a bookmark just fold the pages you’ve already read underneath the inside of the jacket and voila next time you reach out for your favorite shirt take a look at the top button hole it should be stitched horizontally and all the other ones are vertical turns out that the dress shirt was designed this way since the first
and the last buttons were the first ones to unbutton throughout the day they then changed the direction of the button hole to to ensure the shirt would stay nice and fitted before you’re ready to take it off these days we have so many variations of this awesome dessert that it’s hard to imagine we’ve ever lived without it you can find different types of cookie dough ice cream or even chocolate chip cookie cake basically everywhere but the famous cookie wasn’t actually invented until 1930 The Story
Goes that a woman named Ruth Graves Wakefield Was preparing some chocolate cookies as she was waiting for some guests to arrive she soon figured out she was out of Baker’s chocolate a crucial ingredient for the classic cookies to fix things up she chopped up a block of semi chocolate thinking it would eventually spread out evenly throughout the batter given the heat of the oven things didn’t necessarily go as planned but hey it’s great they didn’t because this is how she invented This Modern dessert we now can’t get enough
of and speaking of popular snacks the potato chip is even younger than the chocolate chip cookie well at least historically there are many stories trying to explain how it was invented one of them goes like this a chef named George crumb based in New York put the chips together in 1953 he decided to try a different cooking solution when one of his customers didn’t have nice things to say about his french fries he said they were too thick and kind of mushy then crumb came up with potatoes that were thinly
sliced and fried until brown people absolutely loved the dish and they welcomed the first ever batch of chips with open arms ice cream anyone if the story is true back in 1904 at the St Louis World’s Fair one ice cream shop owner ran out of cups to serve his dish so he fashioned a waffle into the shape of a cone and the rest was history okay I’ll admit it chewing gum like Treats have been around since the ancient Greeks so this one isn’t particularly a revolutionary Discovery but the actual gum we buy today wasn’t
there until the late 1800s an American inv named Thomas Adams wanted to mix together different chemicals to create rubber he tried and failed for that matter to play with chickle for his experiment but ended up fashioning this neat treat they still use chickle to this day to produce most chewing gums there are a lot of things you can put in your dishwasher apart from your dishes for example you can clean such things as your Silicone oven mitt or the knobs of some kitchen appliances like your oven or stove some
kitchen sponges and reusable towels s may be safe to clean in the dishwasher as well speaking of kitchen cleaning products there are a lot of things you can do with dish soap like deg grimming your patio furniture just add a bit of dish detergent to some warm water and use the solution to wipe down your outdoor furniture with a piece of cloth finally rinse it clean using your garden hose you can also use dish soap to get rid of greasy stains on your clothes be it pasta sauce or salad dressings hey sometimes times we miss our mouths so
just apply a little dish detergent to the stain and then rinse with water use non-colored soap for lighter clothes for more difficult stains let the dish soap sink in for a bit then throw the piece of clothing in the washer as usual and think about maybe getting a bib if none of the methods have helped you organize your closet and you’re still overwhelmed with large piles of clothes there’s a simple way that might be effective it’s called the onein one out rule that means for every new piece of clothing you buy you need to get rid of
one you already have that means you’ll always be decluttering your space to make it easier to find something in your closet good luck keep your most used items at ey level this way they’ll be easier to find and pull out when you’re in a hurry those items that you tend to use less often like your evening clothes for example can stay on the shelves above or below your eye level you can make good use of Old Spice tins if you glue some powerful magnets to the inside of the tins they can double as magnetic shelves you can use
them for all sorts of everyday items like kitchen pliers ice cream Scoops M or even Cutlery you can also place them on any metallic surface like your refrigerator door they’ll blend in nicely with your kitchen magnets hidden in your laundry room there’s a great tool for picking up head hair it sometimes works better than lint rollers take a dryer sheet and using some elbow grease you’ll get rid of that dog or cat hair in no time it works on all sorts of surfaces but it’s especially effective
for upholstered furniture now if you don’t like it when a door starts squeaking whenever you enter a room get a bar of soap and rub it straight on the hinges this will only help for a while though but it’ll do the trick until you manage to get to a hardware store and you know buy some oil hey have you ever noticed that in some elevators there’s a star next to the number of a specific floor no it’s not to indicate where my office is it’s there to point out where the nearest exit is and it’s not always on the first
floor it’s most likely located on the floor closest to the street have you ever wondered why stop signs are red well back in the day they didn’t actually have any particular color at all before the 1920s they didn’t even have a standardized shade in 1922 though someone came up with the Octagon but initially it was painted yellow all because the red coloring tended to fade out too quickly because of sun exposure so yellow turned out to be the best option it took another 30 years for a fade resistant enamel paint
to be invented we ended up changing the color of the stop sign back to Red after all it’s still the best color if you want something to be easily noticeable do you know there’s a type of rose that can grow taller than people according to the Guinness Book of World Records the tallest rose bush ever found grew in Vienna Austria it was a staggering 28 1/2 ft tall yes it arose to a great height in the same way we all have unique patterns on our fingerprints no two tigers have the same set of Stripes it makes it easier for people
working with this feline species to distinguish one tiger from another I’ll bet you didn’t know the White House has its own flower shop hidden in the basement of the building it’s supposed to provide flower arrangements for all sorts of events that take place there it’s probably no surprise that pizza has become an American staple dish despite its Italian origin people in the US love it so much that they buy 350 slices of pizza every second in the states man I’m not getting my fair share to manage the
huge demand for the delicious dish around 177% of all restaurants in the US are pizzer Ras finally there’s a way to make lemon juice without the seeds getting into your beverage try cutting the fruit in two and squeezing it with a pair of kitchen tongs the pointed end of the lemon should be facing down the juice will flow down but the seeds will remain inside the lemon ooh lemonade it goes well with pizza seat belt on the passenger seats has a fabric Loop when put under a great amount of pressure the stitches on the
loop rip apart so the excess fabric can assist in cushioning the passengers the extra few inches can make a great difference within a dire circumstance however there isn’t one on the driver’s side as the driver is so close to the steering wheel it’s safer for them not to have one seat belts were originally invented in the mid 19th century though this technology wasn’t brought into common practice until the 19 60s pre-collision sensory technology has assisted with developing the safety of seat belts and other features to the
next level effectively predicting a car’s Collision the technology directs the seat belts to automatically tighten aligning the airbags and ensuring the brakes will be pre-loaded to reduce shock every year 6 million car accidents occur which explains why all cars still must continue to develop safety features not only to alleviate accidents but to protect people more effectively within their cars the materials that make up the body of cars only started getting replaced within the last 25 years ranging from
aluminum and magnesium Alloys to carbon fiber composits these lighter materials not only enable a more fuel efficient Journey but they also ensure that when a car is in an accident its build provides a crumple Zone as a car hits another object the crumple Zone absorbs energy from the Collision although this would appear to cause more damage to the car it helps prevent impact on the passengers front and rear bumpers are very underrated and due to their long history of being used in cars you can’t imagine a time we didn’t use them they
were invented in the late 1800s the bumpers evolved over the years to the point we don’t even realize we have them but they’re there quietly waiting under the outer covers consisting of compressible foam or plastic around a rigid reinforced bar all the windows of your car are made of glass but the windshield is made of a shatterproof version It’s laminated so whatever might hit it you can be sure there won’t be any shards of glass falling into the front seats normal glass was used up until the 1950s as Vehicles became more
prominent they made modifications to ensure safety airbags seem like another common feature that has always been there in fact they were originally invented in 1968 and were ahead of their time they slowly gained popularity and through safety precautions for cars they eventually became mandatory for all cars to have only in 1998 they have since developed from just being an airbag within the steering wheel today depending on the vehicle they can be located throughout the car ensuring all potential passengers will
be protected crash sensors connected to an onboard computer detect when a collision occurs and trigger the bags inflating within milliseconds and providing a cushioned safety within a blink of an eye it can be difficult to predict the weather and even more so to determine traction on the road in the late 1960s antiock braking systems ABS were implemented in vehicles before that they had been used in many aircraft with designs going as far back as 1908 they soon became a necessity for all vehicles ensuring traction is
maintained on slippery surfaces and that there is complete control when breaking today ABS has advanced so much that the latest variations ensure further detection when there are strong Crosswinds cruise control initially invented in 1948 has been in constant development over many decades today adaptive cruise control ensures that when the car is cruising at a constant speed and detects a slower car ahead it will then adjust the speed to match the car in front other Advanced variants may also ensure the car will make a complete stop once
identifying that the car in front has done the same it’s easy to forget to have your high beams on when driving on the long and Lonesome Road for many hours automatic high beams are quickly becoming more common high-tech camera modules can easily determine what type of light is passing through and help ensure when the high beam will be necessary although versions of automatic high beams have been around since the 1950s they counted on light sensitive sensors and were very unreliable the new varieties can identify the sources of light whether
it’s from the Sun directly from a car’s light or even from the reflection on a sign ensuring you won’t cause issues with other drivers it’s a pain in the neck to have to ensure there isn’t anyone creeping into that semi-visible corner the blind spot which causes around 400,000 accidents per year solar sensors within rear bumpers of vehicles and blind spot monitoring systems watch and identify adjacent Lanes they alert the driver that a vehicle may be in the lane beside them whether by flashing lights on the
dash or from beeping sounds this way they help to alleviate the many concerns the blind spot causes 1.6 million Road accidents are caused by texting and driving and fatigue normally causes up to 10% of all car accidents per year the driver attention monitor helps to alleviate both statistics it works through sensors that monitor the car’s movements and the amount of steering corrections to ensure the driver is paying attention to the road when the system identifies that the driver isn’t completely awake or is
slightly distracted with their phone it will prompt signals to suggest it’s time for a break tires are among the most critical components for your car with a close relationship with whatever path you take many safety features rely on the tires themselves for their own independent purposes that’s why it’s super important to ensure the tires are always in top condition tire pressure monitoring systems check the air pressure of all four tires ensuring you’re aware when they need their pressure increased to avoid the risk of
a blowout the constant evolution in Technologies continues to ensure you stay safe on longer stretches of the road Lane departure warnings focus on the lines on the road ensuring the car stays within whenever a car starts driving in over a line in the road without signaling to do so the camera based feature identifies and signals to the driver the lane keeping assist feature follows the same method of identifying when the car is intruding the bordering Lane when it gets too close it will readjust the steering and
Center The Car within its appropriate Lane other features in more advanced cars have autonomous driving capabilities the autopilot systems have taken cruise control to the next level not only does does it allow the vehicle to steer itself in the intended Lane while maintaining a set speed but it also changes Lanes when required making the ride more and more efficient some safety features are only just making a trend in car models worldwide for example night vision using thermographic cameras to look out for pedestrians and
animals nearby it goes within the infotainment screen facing frontwards and identifying objects from their heat signatures that’s it for today so hey if you pafy your curiosity then give the video a like and share it with your friends or if you want more just click on these videos and stay on the bright side
