Check out the time lapse video below, the Intel Labs team air lifts their version of the future Smart Car up into the Computer History Museum, and have some fun along the way.

The smart car will be on display Wednesday – showing off the labs version of virtuali in-car experience, that using netbooks and smart phones to connect to the vehicle over the Internet for remote engine start, adjust cabin temperature, access vehicle cameras for surveillance, lock/unlock doors and arm/disarm alarm.

It can even detect other vehicles’ distance and objects in our blind spots to alert drivers and prevent accidents.
