   ** SAAB 91 - FIRST CAR WITH A LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM **   
      
   I am currently in a project in Facebook, which is trying to create the   
   first car of the automotive industry with a linux operating system   
   running inside, and able to provide real time internet to the   
   passengers. The car take the available local free wifi networks to   
   provide internet to the passengers, and also can use mobile internet   
   from different internet providers using mobile technologies as (3G, etc.)   
      
   We are making our own Linux version, adapted to work in the car, based   
   in the kernel of Ubuntu Linux.   
      
   For those curious, I can give you some clues of our project in Facebook.   
      
   We are a group of SAAB enthusiasts, that are developing the first car   
   thru the internet, the SAAB 91 (a car based exclusively in Linux). The   
   idea was following the spirit of the Linux community to create the first   
   car of the world based in the International Collaboration.   
      
   Basically the car will have in the trunk a box containing 1 or 2   
   laptop's motherboards, with their hard disks and the Linux operating   
   system installed, controlling several things from the car (systems,   
   providing Internet, etc.)   
      
   ONE OF OUR MOST AMBITIOUS PROJECTS: We are working also in an autopilot   
     with a technology from Intel called OpenCV (a camera inside the car   
   recognize hazards pedestrians, objects, even the road lanes and allow   
   the car to drive alone, under certain conditions).   
      
   ** For this project we need the help of the Linux Community **
