CarNav: "Guidance will now commence. Please proceed to the designated route."
C: "Activate Avatar"
CarNav: "She's not feeling well today.."
C: "Don't bullshit me.. she's an avatar for Fuck's sake. Project it or I'll turn you off."
Avatar (appears, stamps foot and pouts): "You were SO
rude to me last time.."
C: "Well, stop back seat driving.."
Avatar: "Consul, I'm a navigation tool. You're supposed to listen to me and do what I say. Turn right in 200 meters."
C: "I've told you and your GPS mate a thousand times..that way takes about five minutes longer."
Avatar: "Well adjust your road preferences you stubborn old fart."
C (swats avatar with rolled up newspaper): Don't you 'stubborn old fart ' me!.."
etc.

+ cute, but possibly annoying... |
|

Just wondering... what technology allows the existence of holographic avatars? |
|
| |
Please don't make me get nasty on my first day back. |
|
| |
Not trying to be nasty, and welcome back, but it's a legitimate question. |
|
| |
I didn't say you were nasty, thank you for your welcome, and I reject your legitimacy and substitute my own. |

You know, I'm going to bun this solely for the creatively modified, perfectly timed MythBusters quote. Excellent!+ |

I think MythBusters quoted it from somewhere else. |

One could project the hologram into a 5 inch dash mounted block of frosted Lexan, using lasers positioned circumferentially around the block. Monochrome would be easiest, but might not do Barbie justice. |
|
| |
You could do a HUD on the windshield
without the need for holograms. |
|
| |
I've already got something cute but
annoying that tells me where to
turn, why would I want this? |
