BMW files patent for car scratch detection system
The system is a great example of how technology can help us adjust our ways of dealing with car scratches.
The German auto manufacturer is seeking to alleviate the anxiety of those who have been victims of scratches, dents, and denting on their vehicles. When it comes to BMW's vehicle, the company seems to have something a little different in mind. The automaker has filed a patent for a "scratch detection system" for cars. When pressure is applied to it, the system recognizes the area where pressure has been applied and triggers a notification to the owner via their smartphone or through an alarm or haptic feedback mechanism.
The system includes cameras and electrical contacts, which are sensitive to scratches. It uses an electrical current to detect signs of damage. When that happens, cameras and other alerts activate to alert drivers to potential issues before they become serious problems.
