You're parked at a stadium or shopping center, and it’s time to find the car. Just talk -- you don’t carry any devices with you. Anyone in your family can call to the car, because the vehicle's on-board circuitry recognizes voices. And your car calls back, using a special locator response system [link].
"Marco!",
you yell.
"Polo!", the car replies.
"Marco!"
"Polo!"
After just a couple of calls, you've found your vehicle, and you're heading home. Thanks, Polocator!
