Prompt
As someone who personally loves to go on a road trip once a year, I would never forget how tiring it is to be a driver and a tour guide at the same time.
Expectation: I always like to travel with somebody who love to plan travel schedule ahead so that I don't need to worry about where to go and how to get there. If there is someone who personally love to drive that would even better!
Problem
?
Planning is frustrated.
?
I don’t want to be the driver.
?
I also don’t want to join a tour group.
Solution Overview
Create a built-in AR tour guide system for autonomous cars so people don’t have to worry about their transportation from point A to point B. Furthermore, the in-car tour guide system would allow travelers to travel like having a tour guide with them but with more flexibility to adjust their own trips to their liking.
