The new Lexus LS

The new Lexus LS has an automatic parallel parking system. You pull up the spot and put the car in reverse. The computer then reads where to park the car using a rearview camera view that shows up on your display. (You can adjust it a little forwards or backwards if you want to be more precise.) Then you just press "ok." The car takes over from there, litteraly turning the wheel itself and then reversing your car into the spot.

Heres the commercial.



Heres a video that ran on Gizmodo that really shows how it actually works.

I read some reviews, and apparently it can be a bit glichy sometimes but still, were talking about cars that drive themselves.

The future is now my friends.
