Researchers in Japan have taken to attaching giant googly eyes to self-driving golf carts, says Futurism, to make it clear to pedestrians that the vehicle knows they’re there. Studies found that walkers felt safer when they saw the ocular accessories pointing in their direction, and were happier to cross the road when a kitted-out cart was approaching.
