Toyota sneak previews self-drive car ahead of tech show

Toyota has also developed technology that lets a car communicate with a driver's smartphone to offer augmented reality features. This would let the car know about places by the road letting it, for example. recommend an upcoming restaurant, said the spokesman.

doesn't work very well unless you are looking for a restaurant.😉 (cries of fancy a Chinese or shall we just go home?)
