  VR Displays Inside the Autonomous Apple Car                                    Source: Various Creative Concepts Apple Files a Significant Patent For its Long-Anticipated Car The long-awaited Apple car is likely to be windowless and fully autonomous.  Apple has filed a significant patent for a virtual reality (VR) vehicle system that would match virtual views with the real motion of the car.  So, if the car is going downhill, the VR display might show a skier gliding downhill.  VR displays would replace the car's windows, making it an Apple technology showcase on wheels.  The self-driving technology in the vehicle would need to be highly advanced and industry leading because with no windows it would be totally autonomous. Fascinating Technologies Apple has been working on its car very secretly for nearly a decade. There is no definitive word from Apple on when the car will be unveiled and what design direction they are taking.  But experts believe it will be all-electric, autonom

  Autonomous, Electric, Egg-Like Pod                                      Source:  Designer DeVange Borah What If Apple Went With the Apple Pod? Apple's autonomous, electric car - called Project Titan - remains a mystery.  Since Apple began its quest in 2014 to design and launch a car, the company has kept most details under wraps.  There are no official Apple releases or even hints from Apple of what it might look like.  Designers globally are using their creativity and information about what Apple is targeting to create likely designs.  India-based mechanical engineer and designer DeVange Borah has created a 2-seat Apple Pod that has 360-degree maneuverability.  The design is catching global attention. What if Apple went with the Apple Pod? It would certainly be among the unique, epic rides of all time.  The vehicle resembles an egg on four wheels. Apple Pod Like Apple's targets for its forthcoming car, the Apple Pod is autonomous, electric, futuristic and eye-catching.  The
