Neil Young & LincVolt Visit Sun Microsystems & James Gosling
At the Sun Microsystems campus in Menlo Park, CA., rock legend Neil Young shows James Gosling, the father of Java technology, the Linc Volt - a classic 1959 Lincoln Continental Mk IV re-powered with a new series-hybrid system that runs on electricity produced by a natural gas generator. For the past 14 months, Young has been working on Linc Volt (http://www.lincvolt.com/), his entry into the X Automotive PRIZE (http://www.progressiveautoxprize.org/). The Linc Volt features installed sensors, which are powered by Java technology from Sun Microsystems, that monitor the performance of the Linc Volt and display the data on a touch-screen panel in the car. Visit http://java.com to learn more on how Java technology is helping to revolutionize the way we look at cars through the Linc Volt project.
