Car design is an art form, and remains essential to establishing a brand. Every manufacturer has its own individual lines and shapes that let consumers to distinguish different companies, much like a painter’s brush strokes. However, with the recent push for more and more features and tech, creating an all-encompassing design has been slowly increasing in difficulty. Because of this Nissan is taking a big step forward into creating an artificial intelligence that can design a car on its own from pictures and design limitations.

 

Imagine this: a company needs to add a USB port for charging or playing music to the center display. Sounds easy right? Unfortunately, you can’t just place it anywhere; it needs to be easily accessible, not displace another button and wiring and software needs to be installed to make it run correctly. Every change affects the entire design, and this stage where Nissan’s AI steps in. A computer can much more easily determine the adjustments and added stress that will be put on the vehicle from any change, and with enough data can even account for this by altering materials or moving other parts. This would happen in a matter of minutes, while a human would take much longer.

 

While this AI is currently in the testing phase, results look promising. The computer has already been able to design a never before seen car, and while it was not perfect, it’s a great head start.
