“This is where everything is happening.  This is where all the intelligence lies, so this is where Nissan needs to be,” said Nissan Americas Senior Vice President of Research and Development Carla Bailo.  “Maybe we will have a Jetsons era.  We will see,”

Bailo might not be too far off as Nissan is not the only automaker working on developing similar technology.  Some of the smartest and most innovative companies and people are in Silicon Valley.  The Jetson era might not be too far off from now.
