Well, here's one of the more interesting vehicles to debut at the Geneva Motor Show.



Per Gearlog:

EDAG has unveiled its Open Source Light Car concept, which uses OLED technology as both custom exterior lighting and as a safety-themed TV screen for drivers behind the car, at the Geneva Motor Show, Autoblog reports.


For those not familiar with Open Source, EDAG has made the car's plans and technology freely available for other automakers to review and use. This is the opposite of current policy, where car designs are a closely guarded secret. EDAG and other open source advocates hope their paradigm will bring new and more efficient designs in the future.
