The chair, which has been named after Nissan autonomous driving technology, is programmed to automatically move along a fixed path by detecting and following chairs in front of it. It also knows how to get itself back into the start of the queue once its occupant reaches the end.

 

According to Nissan, the chair "eliminates the tedious and physical strain of standing in line.

Interested in the chairs and how they work? You can see them at the public gallery at the company's Global Headquarters in Yokohama, from 29th September to 2nd October where they will be exhibited.

While it's clear tiny houses aren't going to work out here, the concept of 'tiny living' is; not just physically but also mentally. Anyone who has lived enough years lo
