The Ford heart rate monitoring seat performs much like a traditional ECG, except the sensors are placed on the surface of the car seat instead of being attached directly to the driver.
Ford's car seat may in some cases detect increased heart activity before the driver notices they are having a heart attack,
Existing Ford systems such as Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keeping Aid, Active City Stop, Driver Alert and Speed Limiter could potentially be activated
when the Ford heart rate monitoring seat senses an attack is imminent, mitigating the consequences of a driver losing control because of a heart-related episode.

In order to advance onboard natural gas storage, Ford motor company teamed up with UC Berkeley on this project, with funding from the Advanced Research Projects Agencynergy (ARPA-E) of the U s. Dept of energy.
Ford is a leader in CNG/propane-prepped vehicles with more than 57,000 sold in the U s. since 2009, more than all other major U s. automakers combined.
According to Mike Veenstra, of Ford research and advanced engineering group in Dearborn Michigan, Ford recognized that ANG has the potential to lower the cost of onboard tanks,
station compressors and fuel along with serving to increase natural gas-powered vehicle driving range within the limited cargo space. atural gas storage in porous materials provides the key advantage of being able to store significant amounts of natural gas at low pressures

Dr Ford believes it is imperative that the relationship of the two receptors is investigated, to further understand their individual and combined roles in the progression
Dr Ford said. The UNSW study focused on epithelial ovarian cancer which is the most common type making up about 90%of tumours of the ovary.

#Ford#s Applink Will Soon Support Third-party Navigation Apps Most carsbuilt-in navigation systems tend to be compared a bit clunky to modern smartphone apps like of Google maps.
It looks like Ford is among the first car manufacturers to acknowledge this. The next version of Applink its system for connecting smartphone apps to its SYNC infotainment system will allow third-party navigation apps to project their maps from the phone onto the built-in screens in its cars.
Ford will roll out the latest (and much improved) version of SYNC later this year but Applink 3. 0 will only become available at a later date (SYNC can be updated over Wifi and through a connected smartphone).
Chances are other companies will jump on board as well though it worth noting that Ford has to explicitly whitelist applications to run on Applink.
but with Glympse it has featured long a location-sharing service As well as Ford notes Applink 3. 0 will use the Genivi alliance open-source Smartdevicelink service
The members in the Genivi alliance besides Ford include the likes of BMW Honda Nissan renault Volvo and John Deere as well as chip manufacturers like Intel Qualcomm and Nvidia and plenty of aftermarket manufacturers.

Many other carmakers, including Ford and Toyota, are following suit, both in the U s. and worldwide, using partnerships with wireless carriers to deliver the connectivity.
Ford motor co. pushes a similar strategy with its Blueprint for Mobility, which foresees a transport network connecting vehicles,
although Ford acknowledges it will require unprecedented co-operation across a number of sectors. Todd Litman of the Victoria Transport Policy Institute think tank expects those and other technologies,
#Ford unveils its all-terrain electric bike: Folding Mode: Flex has sat-nav, collision sensors and adapts to roads and mountains By Victoria Woollaston for Mailonline Published:
but Ford is hoping to bring the concept to your morning commute. At a conference in California, the car maker unveiled its latest prototype folding electric bike called Mode:
It builds on the technology used in Ford's previous electric bikes but adds a twist-the battery,
Pro bikes unveiled at this year's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona under Ford's Handle on Mobility scheme.
With all of its protoypes, Ford took inspiration from technology seen in cars including rear-facing ultrasonic sensors.
Ford said:''Mode: Flex is Ford's third, most versatile ebike yet-easily reconfigurable for different customer needs.
The bike's centre frame assembly includes the motor and battery, while the front and rear assemblies and wheels can be configured for road,
Ford.''Mode: Flex is Ford's third, most versatile ebike yet-easily reconfigurable for different customer needs.'
'The bike's centre frame assembly includes the motor and battery, while the front and rear assemblies and wheels can be configured for road, mountain or city riding.'
As part of the announcement, Ford also said it is extending its Mode: Link app for use on the smartwatch to bring real-time data to the rider's wrist.
but Ford said they will help test alternative transportation ideas. t

#Ford GPS aims headlamps around dark corners Now there are headlamps that will steer around the corner before you reach the corner,
This is Ford Camera-Based Advanced Front Lighting System project being developed in Europe. Ford says he technology will be available for customers in the near term.
It one more tool to keep drivers safer at night along with better xenon, LED and laser headlamps;
Ford says, the car will use the map data to see when the car is about to go around a curve.
Ford since 2007 has had an Adaptive Front Lighting System and Traffic Sign Recognition that turned the car headlamps up to 15 degrees as the driver turned the wheel to steer into the curve.
Ford says the headlamps can also be steered to show dips in the road. If there no GPS

#Ford's smart lighting technology spots potential hazards There are some incredible technological strides being made to improve road safety,
Ford is developing headlight technology that widens the beam at junctions and detects pedestrians and animals.
Ford's prototype system relies on a front-mounted camera, which works in tandem with GPS information to better illuminate bends and dips along a route.
It's not just Ford working on safer lighting technology. Mercedes'new E-Class will offer optional headlamps with 84 LEDS that allow full-beam to be used without blinding oncoming drivers,
Ford expects the GPS-based lighting technology to be available for customers in the near future,
