BMW Now Wants Us To Park Our Cars Via Smartwatch by prowitin(m): 10:58am On Dec 18, 2014
This one is for those Android apps fanatics out there who have been lazing around waiting for an app that will be able to park their cars for them. BMW is developing a remote-control valet parking system for cars that can be operated by a smartwatch. You know what that means right? If you are having problems parking your cars as a learner, you will soon have a helper.

The sensor-filled BMW i3 car, which will be on display at the 2015 International CES in Las Vegas in January, integrates with smartwatch and can essentially self-park. According to the company, a driver could activate the "Remote Valet Parking Assistant" via an app, which then guides the vehicle to a parking spot all by itself.
The car works with the help of laser sensors that scan the surrounding environment so it can move without running into anything. It will work in tandem with a digital site plan, so the car has a map of the environment too.
