The only way to make this happen is to either tape cameras to every street corner or have every car fitted with linked camera's. A logistican nightmare in itslef not to mention the potential for a street-by-street real time big brother
LOL once the system is out for cars, drivers will have to stop before the curb, set up camera behind the curb, go back, turn with caution, and take the camera back.
ha! you are really on the money with the convex mirror idea... I can simplify that! Just put a motion sensor connected to an orange light on either side of the blind corner (see the orange light? take care)... but yes, I think this will have a military app, as well, so the research is not wasted...
so I'm assuming youd have to place 2 cameras on every blind corner in the world then every car would need wireless access to a server with these live feed cameras on it so you can view it while driving your $50k car with a TV in it while trying not to hit anyone. Ever heard of a convex mirror? I dont even know why this is relevant, what a waste of time money and research. No part of this concept seems realistic what so ever
