This television uses facial recognition technology to locate its viewer, then rotates its screen to face them.

"Did you ever wonder what it would be like to own a car like KITT from the "Knight Rider" TV series? It would come standard with the most advanced navigation system to date and wouldn't require safety features like anti-theft devices."
