Warner Bros. is experimenting with an inter-vehicle gaming solution which would allow passengers from multiple cars to play video games with one another. According to a newly granted patent filing, Warner Bros. has been researching such a system for at least the last couple of years.
Warner Bros. applied for its newly granted patent two years ago. The filing primarily deals with a matchmaking system that would take vehicle destination, travel time, and other factors into account while looking for players to connect. Ultimately, the mechanism is meant to deliver seamless gaming experiences between passengers from two or more vehicles.
This development is yet another indication that Warner Bros. is working on in-car gaming devices. Earlier this year, the company applied for another patent describing a full-fledged gaming console embedded into a car seat, stating that the solution is intended for use in autonomous vehicles.
