The World of Electric Cars Continues to Innovate and, at CES 2022, Companies Brought Several New Features, Such as Models That Change Color and Eliminate Covid-19

As time goes by, vehicles have started to become gadgets, that is, a device like a gaming console, smartphone, tablet, ultrabook, or another electronic device. Proof of this is that the Detroit Auto Show, which has been held since 1899 in the former World Capital, left the nearly 120,000 m² of the Cobo Center empty, while its biggest exhibitors rushed to secure a spot at CES, on the other side of the country, in Las Vegas. At CES, several new technologies appeared, such as electric cars that can change color with a single touch and others capable of even eliminating Covid-19.

Not long ago, CES was the stage for launching games, new versions of operating systems, and autonomous vacuum cleaners. In this 2022 edition, it presents the avant-première of two of the most anticipated electric cars in the world today. Unfortunately, due to the significant rise in infections from the Covid-19 variant, Omicron, CES was emptied.

For those thinking about changing the color of their car but gave up due to the bureaucracy, BMW seems to have thought of a solution and presented a concept where the body completely changes color at CES 2022.

The system alternates the colors of the SUV between white, gray, and black. All through a simple command from the driver. According to the company, the bodywork of the model is covered with millions of microcapsules the diameter of a human hair.

After the driver selects the configuration, an electric field stimulates the capsules to rise to the surface of the bodywork. As their energy charges are different, each group reacts differently to this stimulus, thus changing the color.

Electric Cars That Eliminate Covid-19

In addition to color-changing electric cars and others, Marelli was awarded for developing a purification system (IAQ) that uses UV-A and UV-C lights, combined with a titanium dioxide filter, to eliminate bacteria in the cabin and even the Covid-19 virus.

Meanwhile, Bosch showcased an intelligent sun visor, which is a Virtual Visor that identifies the driver’s eye position, darkening the part of the windshield where light could reach them.

Valeo, a supplier for the automotive industry, presented the third generation of its LiDAR autonomous driving system, which can reconstruct 3D images of the environment around the model at a speed of 25 FPS and with a resolution of 4.5 million pixels.

NASA is offering US$ 750,000 to people from anywhere in the world who solve a problem that could decide survival on Mars: creating food for astronauts without relying on resupply from Earth.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

New microwave that can replace three appliances hits the market: Sharp launches 3-in-1 model that combines air fryer, convection oven, and heating in 0.9 cubic feet for small kitchens

While Brazil has been discussing bullet trains for 16 years, China delivers 5 new high-speed lines in 2026, surpasses 50,000 km of HSR, and moves 1 billion passengers in a single year.

With an 88-meter wingspan, a capacity of 250 tons, six engines, and 32 wheels, the Ukrainian giant became the greatest symbol of extreme air transport and one of the most impressive machines in aviation history.

With R$ 189 million and 10 Brazilian companies, Brazil is developing a 12-meter national rocket to launch satellites of up to 30 kg from Alcântara and try to conquer the “key to space” without depending on powers like the USA, Russia, China, and India.

Cheap used cars can turn into a headache: 7 models up to R$ 50,000 that seem like a good deal, but can wipe out your savings at the mechanic’s

Mangroves hide a billion-dollar water cleanup, remove 960 thousand tons of nitrogen per year, and reveal an environmental power that many people hadn’t even imagined existed.
