See the Future on the Back of a Truck

Have you ever slammed into the ass of an eighteen wheeler at 65 mph? I have, and the aftermath isn't pretty. Art. Lebedev Studio, the innovative Russian design company, has begun developing an idea they call Transparentius: an ingenious way to avoid a crash by mounting a camera on the front of the truck and projecting the oncoming image onto the back, rendering the hulking road goliath virtually transparent.

Apparently, tanks are more popular than the Prius in Russia.
