Technologies in Development Part 1
Out if the 6 technologies in the article the one I think that the flying cars won't one because I mean it would be a lot of work ant it really far fetched because they would be all new rules and stuff to go with it also.
The one I think that will have the biggest impact on society is the bio metric seat research biggest it is just pretty cool and it makes sense.
The first technology used that will be used in cars is the driver less car biggest there is already technology that can park itself, and it probably won't be long before it will drive by its self.
The Ford's bio metric seat research will make the driver and passengers safer because it can sense if the driver is stress and so the car will do different things that will make the stress level go down, if the stress level goes down then its less of a chance of an accident.
My opinion on the flying car is that I think that it could possibly get in the way of airlines and that not much people would buy them also that its not really practical. Some disadvantages could be that the car would look weird also that the car may not be allowed to fly certain places, and advantage would that you could get to place quicker, also there will be no traffic.
In my opinion I think that driver less cars do take away from the driving experience, I also think that maybe this type of technology has gone to far.

Automobile Timeline
1911 Electric starter introduced:
Charles Kettering made the electric starter. They use to have to be started by hand cranking. People said no one could make some thing small enough to fit under a car’s hood to start it. His starters came in the 1912 Cadillacs. I found it interesting because I never knew who invented it and when they came out.
1926 First power steering system:
Francis Wright Davis uses a Pierce-Arrow to introduce the first power steering system. It works by integrating the steering linkage with a hydraulics system. I chose that one because power steering helps to make the car very luxuries for driving.
1950's Cruise control:
Developed Ralph Teeter, a blind man, senses by ear that cars on the Pennsylvania Turnpike travel at uneven speeds, which he believes leads to accidents. Through the 1940s he develops a cruise control mechanism that a driver can set to hold the car at a steady speed. Unpopular when generally introduced in the 1950s, cruise control is now standard on more than 70 percent of today’s automobiles.
1966 Electronic fuel injection system:
Developed An electronic fuel injection system is developed in Britain. Fuel injection delivers carefully controlled fuel and air to the cylinders to keep a car’s engine running at its most efficient. I picked this because fuel injection was a big part of the cars now and fuel efficiency.
1985 Antilock braking system (ABS):
Available on American cars The Lincoln becomes the first American car to offer an antilock braking system (ABS), which is made by Teves of Germany. ABS uses computerized sensing of wheel movement and hydraulic pressure to each wheel to adjust pressure so that the wheels continue to move somewhat rather than "locking up" during emergency braking.

Part Three of Four
Vulcanized Rubber:
1. The Invention of rubber changed the world in ways we cant even think of.
2. The problem they had with rubber was that if it got to hot it burned up and if it was too cold it would get all chunky.
3. Good Year what the first the first person to discover vulcanized rubber by adding Sulphur too it.
4. The extraction of rubber lead to many beating for the men in Africa.
The rise of Henry Ford:
1. Henry Ford had the idea of a horse less carriage.
2. The first time Henry Ford tried to get his company off the ground he failed.
3. Ford realized that he had to make the car for the common man to effort.
4. They said that he invented "the modern america".

Part Two of Four
Henry Ford the Model T:
1. Henry Ford suggested that instead of the workers moving down the line the line itself moved.
2. He treated them more fairly money wise also, he was guaranteeing a more “livable wage” than anyone else was.
3. They cost a bit over $1000 dollars. It was made for the every common man.
4. It went to $800 dollars then dropped to about $300 dollars. It probably dropped so much because other companies started making cars and he wanted people buying cars from him instead of the other company.
5. It offer a way of traveling whenever they wanted and they didn’t have to wait for the railroads.
