Japan is building a futuristic smart city. AI, self-driving cars, robotics, solar power.

Special types of roads are being built in the city: one for pedestrians, one for bicycles and scooters, and one for self-driving vehicles. Electric shuttles deliver goods.

Houses are built of wood to reduce the "carbon footprint." Sensors controlled by artificial intelligence monitor the health of residents. In other words, Big Brother will constantly monitor residents.

The city is being built by Toyota on the site where a factory once stood. Over the next five years, 360 elderly people, families and inventors will move into the first homes. Eventually, 2,000 people will live there. Soon with us, too?
