Intel Tames Orange County Choppers


Intel joined hands with OCC to make a themed bike for the debut of its Xeon processor. This custom made bike has 250-hp with dual V-twin engines making it a fearsome beast but it has been tamed with a computer and a fully embedded quad-core processor.
It has no ignition key; instead it has finger print recognition for ignition. The motorcycle is uploaded with a 3-pound, 5.6 inches, LCD screen which recognizes finger print deactivate security functions and allows access to start ignition button .The LCD screen is fully viewable in sunlight with a digital speedometer, tachometer, voltage meter, battery voltage gauges and turn signal indicators .
It displays the rear images with the rear mounted cameras making rear view mirrors obsolete and in addition it has electronically controlled hydraulic kickstand, making every thing in the bike integrated with a computing system.
