However things like gesture control is different. It seems like an unnecessary gimmick but when we get more and more into the territory of self driving cars your hands aren't going to be near the wheel controls and who wants to touch stuff when you can describe things in 3D. Remember how cool minority report looked when it first came out?
Agreed, but BMW needs to wait until gesture control is actually useable and accurate. Don't implement tech that is still in beta and then charge customers for it. Who do you think you are?? tesla? :P
