BMW is developing a remote-control valet parking system for cars that can be operated by a smartwatch.<\/p>\n
The sensor-filled BMW i3 car, which will be on display at the 2015 International CES in Las Vegas in January, integrates with smartwatch and can essentially self-park.<\/p>\n
According to the company, a driver could activate the “Remote Valet Parking Assistant” via an app, which then guides the vehicle to a parking spot all by itself.<\/p>\n
The car works with the help of laser sensors that scan the surrounding environment so it can move without running into anything.<\/p>\n
It will work in tandem with a digital site plan, so the car has a map of the environment, too.<\/p>\n
