Warner Bros. is possibly getting ready to design gaming consoles that can be utilized in moving vehicles. The entertainment juggernaut looks to be taking efforts to make sure you can game even as you drive in a recently filed patent. This could also provide some insight into how gaming will develop as self-driving cars become less clear. It will be interesting to see how Warner Bros. expands its gaming presence under new management. 

Electric self-driving cars are gaining popularity, and even Apple has hinted at a self-driving vehicle. Warner Bros. has a lengthy history of involvement in the video game industry. Since Elon Musk began integrating video game options into a variety of Tesla automobiles, the idea of playing video games in cars hasn't exactly been a novel one. These gadgets, however, are primarily designed to be used when the car is stopped or charging. With the ability to play video games while a car is driving, Warner Bros. seems to be advancing this trend. High-end graphics processors (GPUs) are frequently used in self-driving automobiles because of their exceptional multitasking efficiency. 

In a patent application titled HARDWARE FOR ENTERTAINMENT CONTENT IN VEHICLES, which Warner Bros. filed on April 4, 2022, and which was published on September 22, 2022, the studio outlined its ideas for a system that would let commuters (in a self-driving car) play multiplayer video games while they travel. The device would let commuter play games while the car used autonomous driving, according to information in the patent. Warner Bros. asserts that the device would be able to guarantee that it is used safely by using a range of sophisticated sensors. 

The description of an "apparatus" that would offer travelers entertainment experiences is contained within a portable display. Even though some players have questioned the utility of that device, it's probable the gadget may resemble a Steam Deck. Multiplayer gaming is specifically mentioned in the patent. Given that the platform's 5G connection technology takes up a large portion of the patent application, it is reasonable to presume that game streaming will be used by the platform. 

Elon Musk provided an explanation of why he won't produce a video game console to rival Xbox or Playstation, but it appears that since it was revealed that a Tesla Plaid could run Cyberpunk 2077, the race to develop self-driving cars with powerful gaming systems has begun. A feature that gamers would adore is the ability to seamlessly switch between their home PC or console and the device in their automobile. Imagine pausing a game on your PS5 in the morning and being able to pick it back up right away while driving to work.
