Otrivin

Cold Car

Project Description


Otrivin had Current modify a regular car to become the Otrivin Cold Car. Using a variety of mechanical alterations, we simulated the feeling of having a cold for the driver of the car. On command, we could tighten the steering and delay the braking for the feeling of weakness and delayed reaction, fog the windshield to create a moment as if you are sneezing, and use a subwoofer to cause congestion. On a closed course, five drivers of different experience levels tried to drive the car, showing just how much having a cold reduces your ability to drive safely.
