New technologies such as shape memory alloys and polymers serve as future options for the development of GM in the field of cars. The materials are known to be able to change shape, stiffness or strength when either heat, stress, electric current or a magnetic field is applied and can then return to its former state when the stimulus is removed.<\/p>\n<p>The discovery of these materials could eventually lead to many possible movable features in cars, and we may even see prototypes as early as 2012. Examples of these advantages would be to include buttons and handles that automatically pop out when required, active surfaces that can move depending on cars\u00a0speed to ease in the process of implementing effective aerodynamics results, and light-weight actuators and sensors that could replace the heavy motors and hydraulic systems found in today\u2019s cars. The\u00a0possibility of the creation of cars\u00a0that can self-heal in the event of damage, or can be designed to change color or appearance at the touch of a button are ones that are revolutionary to the automobile industry. Such a development in the field of cars can\u00a0undoubtedly revolutionize the human aspect of technology because soon in the future cars can reach abilities never witnessed before, and also such a development will cut down on costs for many people.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carsrun.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/2011-Electric-Car-T-27.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General Motors displayed newest latest innovation in the field of smart\u00a0materials for its plans in the 21st century.
