Features included a heads-up display with night vision, a DNA-based entry and ignition system, body panels that changed color on the driver's command and an "auto valet" feature that let the car drop off its owner then park itself for recharging.
Of the nine patients included in the trial, 8 out of the 9 were able to perceive light, and 7 out of 9 were able to definitely find the source of that light. 6 out of 9 had a significant portion of their vision restored, with some patients able to read letters out of books and also distinguish facial features.
