The high-performance electric motorcycle Davinci DC100 is dubbed as a robot on two wheels thanks to over 1,000 computer chips and over 200 advanced sensors inside its motorcycle design. These sensors and chips help the riders keep track of accurate information about their environment, vehicle movement status, road conditions, battery and motor temperature, and lean angle, to name a few.

 

While riding, the DC100 will combine this data to control the motorcycle’s power system. Davinci has created a smart robot in the body of the motorcycle, and with this kind of technology, perhaps a real-life transformer can become a potential vehicle in the future.
