Gone but not forgotten: the old way of opening a car trunk.
I got to play a little Kinect yesterday (and I do mean "little" ... I did one round of the Wipeout game and then promptly had to nap -- a side effect of my rapid approach to forty I guess), which reminded me that the same technology has been applied to the Ford 2013 Escape SUV.
Namely ... so long as you have the fob in your pocket, you can simply kick your foot under the back bumper, and the motion will release the automatic door for you. Between that and the kids flying the drones as military maneuvers, it appears that video game technology is the new space shuttle technology which, in its time, had replaced Jetson references.
Dropping the groceries while you fumbled for the keys and attempted to balance everything in one arm or leaned it all against the car planning to do the rapid fire switcheroo (like folks do when they flip a stack of quarters off your elbow) ... you will not be missed.
LUCKILY, SAFETY MECHANISM IS INCLUDED FOR WHEN AN ANIMAL RUNS UNDER:
