Sony Corp. has developed a vehicle that can be driven remotely using advanced sensor technology and artificial intelligence to capture a 360-degree image of its surroundings, the electronics maker said Tuesday.The SC-1, which is about 3 meters long, a little under 2 meters tall and accommodates three passengers, is not designed for road use but can transport people at leisure facilities such as golf courses and shopping malls.It features five sensors used in high-end digital cameras to relay imagery back to a controller, who can drive the vehicle from afar to transport guests or customers.It can also use artificial intelligence to distinguish the age and gender of people walking nearby, to show demographic-specific advertisements on the 55-inch ultra-high definition 4K displays on each of its four sides — for example, running an ad for diapers when near young parents with a baby, a company official said.
