Not bike related but i think this looks pretty cool

Disappearing Car Door

I wonder if there is a safety feature (like the IR beam on a garage door) that prevents the door from accidentally closing on say a mother trying to get her child from the back seat? The remote control door looks on our keychains get pushed accidentally all the time. Maybe there is, I only watched 3 quarters of the video.

+1 would make a good safety feature. Good video thanks.
 
A neat trick no doubt. I do however want to know how the door does in an actual crash test. I would also like to know how the structure has been affected in terms of strength relative to the missing "B" pillar? Has this been certified?

Wait, you ride a motorcycle and are worried about a crash test??? LOL OK, OK, I know what you mean. I was wondering what the interior would end up looking like after exiting and entering during a heavy rain storm. In some parts of Texas the dust is so bad that when it rains, it rains mud!
 
Looks well cool.:Flash:

What happens if the electrical supply is cut or reduced; low battery, crash etc?

Can you manually move the door?

How much extra mass is added?
 
the rain would definately be a concern but from the looks of it it opens and tucks inside just as fast as opening the door normally. Also i am sure there is a pressure reverse on it like sunroofs so that it won't hurt a human too much.
