Tiny pieces of apple will be enough to find out where he was brought to the store. Electronic identification will identify it almost up to the tree, which has grown fruit.
8. "Smart" cars.
While many vehicles already have navigation and parking sensors, cars still can not drive themselves. Nevertheless, in 2007, the car robot, developed by scientists from the US, drove 96 kilometers on a specially constructed town, observing all requirements of traffic regulations.
