In the near future, you might be able to control your cars with your minds.

If that seems farfetched, do know that Mercedes-Benz has already invented such a technology.

The IAA Mobility 2021 show in Munich, Germany recently showcased the company’s new variation of Vision AVTR concept car.

According to the company’s website, the car now come with a technology that allows drivers to perform certain tasks just by thinking about them.

The concept is apparently based on visual perception.

The car has light dots projected on the car's digital dashboard, and a brain-computer interface (BCI) device with wearable electrodes that is attached to the back of the user's head that can enable it to record and measure brain activity with a little calibration.

The Vision AVTR concept car is Mercedes-Benz's most futuristic concept to date.

Hope the technology could be developed by other car companies in the future as well!
