Famous automobile manufacturer Nissan came up with this new innovation.
A traditional Japanese guesthouse is setup with self-driving slippers by Nissan that will return to a designated spot once they are used.Guests who arrive at the guesthouse in Hakone, Tokyo, are greeted with a pair of self driving slippers to wear.

After they are removed these slippers will "park" themselves back at the entrance. Each slipper is assembled with 2 small wheels, a tiny motor and sensors. It is using this sensors that they can locate and park themselves in designated area by just the push of a button.

This self driving technology functions in a similar way to the Nissan's battery powered electric vehicle, the Nissan Leaf – which won Best of Innovation at this year's Consumer Electronics Show.
Pretty cool right. Lucky to be living in an age of rapid innovations in technology. I definitely wanna try these for sure.

Good job

I can't quite tell whether this is the most hilarious sarcastic article ever or whether you actually find this technology 'innovative'.

When I picture it, I have a gazillion questions that come to mind. And long before the questions my mind says to me: Dude, just don't think about self-driving slippers. It's not worth it.

End times for sure ;)

I guess it's a small business tactic by Nissan to create awareness among people about the self-driving technology.. we already have self driving cabs in california right.. also thnx for your feedback @paradigmprospect.. Cheers :-D

majorly successful campaign I guess. Because: Here we are talking about Nissan. WTF ;)
That said, I could see these being useful in say spas and stuff where wheeled slippers (with anti-slide coating or something) could prevent major accidents ;) hehe

true bro ;-)

How much are those badboys. My son has heeleys and rolls around. But this is way better!!
I may get these....hoping not to fall.lol..haha
