[ExI] Self-driving tiny homes

[Kelly Anderson]

Ok, here is a crazy idea for all you futurists...

If autonomous vehicles get to the point where they are really as safe as
flying in airplanes today, then why not create an autonomous self-driving
tiny home. That way, you could do ANYTHING you could do at home in your
autonomous vehicle other than space consuming activities like playing
tennis (although you could still do that in VR) or equipment heavy
activities (working in the shop, lifting weights, etc.)

When it comes time to work, you simply tell the car to take you to work and
you shower and groom on the way in. The tiny home drops you off at work,
and then goes off somewhere (another business opportunity is where they go
to not create traffic problems, perhaps being a robo taxi with only a part
of the home open to your guest?) loitering until it is time to pick you up
again.

It's a possible energy and space hog, but maybe this is where things will
go... I doubt it's a new idea, but I haven't heard of it before.
