The autonomous cars arms race is on (despite currently being flummoxed by a chipped windscreen). But how exactly they could reshape our cities, lifestyles and society remains to be seen. That"s the topic of the "Spaces on Wheels" research project by SPACE10 a "future living lab" funded by none other than purveyors of easily-assembled bookshelves and reasonably-priced meatballs, Ikea. As part of a detailed report into self-driving cars and the future of "urban mobility", its designed seven autonomous vehicles that "challenge the traditional idea of the car by showcasing how autonomous vehicles could support the very activities we spend most time on - while moving you from A to B.". Basically, these are autonomous, electric boxes on wheels each one built for a very specific purpose. Office" is just that, a mobile office. We"re told the average worker loses 30 minutes a day to congestion getting to and from work. This space aims to make use of that time. Caf " seeks to redress the limited time people have to socialise with others, but giving them the opportunity to do it while they"re travelling from one place to another.
