MP3 Horntones

We have ringtones for cellphones, caller tones for callers, we also can personalize our computers’ every sound from startup sound to shutdown sound. What if we can personalized our vehicle’s horn as well? Well, now you can!

Introducing Horntones - the car horn that plays MP3s!

Horntones MP3 Automod

Imagine, instead of horning the usual and boring horn, you can do these at the right place and right time:

  • Dixie at the demolition derby
  • The Empire Strikes Back theme when you pull up to the IRS office
  • A Godzilla roar when stuck behind a Toyota
  • The Back to the Future theme as you accelerate to 88 miles per hour
  • Road-Runner “Meep-Meep!” right before you floor it
  • The beginning of “Gimme More” if your name happens to be Britney

So cool, ain’t it?

However, one must remember that it is illegal to use siren wails, bells, and whistle sounds. Those are reserved for emergency vehicles. And Horntones does not replace your normal horn, it operates alongside your existing horn.

Mercedes Knows If You’re Asleep

Ever fell asleep while you’re driving despite knowing the fact it’s way too dangerous but you can’t help feeling too tired at certain times?

Mercedes Benz has thrown some light into its thinking and processes as it develops a system that will detect when you’re in danger of falling asleep at the wheel.

Over the course of their investigations, the company’s team of engineers, cyberneticists, mathematicians, computer scientists and psychologists is testing out a variety of methods for detecting driver fatigue as soon as it sets in. One of these techniques is the eye-blink observation method: an infrared camera directed at the driver’s head permanently monitors the eye-blink frequency, enabling microsleep to be detected the instant the eyes stay closed for a certain period of time. A warning signal sounds in the car’s cockpit in response.
